RTTY contest scene has changed considerably over the last decade. USA was dominant in 1990's but now we have a lot of Eastern EU contesters testing their newly aquired PC in digital modes. Lof of top

Never ending hamradio love for sharp IF CW filters has now been supported with return to reed relays although PNP transistors are with us almost 50 years! Please remember to add small serial resistor

W4PA: There are already a number of high scoring ops that are habitually recording themselves operating contests already. Unforunately there are number of high scoring ops who do not even claim score
