If I counted right, that message will take 15 chars to transmit (each ? 
takes 3). I just send NR NR NR NR NR (14 chars). He/she always seems to 
know what I want. The additional shifts caused by the "?" just slows things 
down (and may even cause more confusion if one of the shift characters gets 
hit).

I just got an acceptance a few minutes ago using 10.45m (and removing the 
RTTY).

I had MANY Rttyrite crashes (maybe 1/hr) when I was using the MMTTY plug-in 
and one clone window with a dumb terminal while simultaneously running a 
stand-alone copy of MMTTY on a second sound card. Required re-starting only 
the Rttyrite window, which went pretty quickly, but still a nuisance. 
Finally completely solved the problem by switching to Wayne's little 
"Writelog RTTY Receiver" (with the clone Rttyrite  dumb terminal and the 
standalone MMTTY still running FB).

If I shout, maybe Wayne will hear me:

IF WAYNE'S "RTTY receiver" COULD DISPLAY A WATERFALL I WOULD PREFER IT TO 
THE MMTTY PLUGIN. COMBINED WITH THE WIDE-BAND DECODE, WAYNE'S DECODER IS 
VERY ACCURATE.

AND IF Rttyrite COULD DISPLAY THE OTHER SHIFT SOMEHOW I WOULDN'T NEED THE 
STANDALONE MMTTY. Please don't tell me about how to transfer the shifted 
text into the entry panel - I have to see it first to know what part to 
transfer.
