Rick gives an good rundown, but I have to disagree with one of his assessments.
I find MMTTY consistently better overall than the
HAL DXP-38, although the DXP-38 does have an advantage of a wider "front end"
filter. When S&P and tuning upon a RTTY signal, the
HAL will decode the signal before MMTTY does. Perhaps MMTTY can be adjusted to
do this, but I've not had success in doing it.
Using MMTTY and the DXP-38 in a dual receive configuration is a killer
combination.

In no particular order....
RTTY by WF1B - available free as mentioned but since it is contest software you
would be better advised to use N1MM for contesting
(again free), or Writelog ($30). N1MM & Writelog, very powerful, includes all
the contest templates and creates a Cabrillo file.
RITTY - not actively marketed in years. Better decoding than MMTTY. Still
available for $100. Remember that it is DOS.
MMTTY - very popular, and for good reason. Nice decoder. It is definitely below
RITTY and a little bit behind the HAL P-38 or
DXP-38, but still quite good. Use as stand alone or as a N1MM or Writelog
plug-in.
