Hi,
one question came to my mind. Is it fair to compare the total amount
of RTTY QSO's with the total amount of CW- or SSB-QSO's?
To my knowledge, there is no 5 band DXCC for RTTY. Each RTTY-OP wants
to make one QSO on any band and maybe a second one on an other band,
just for insurance and for his own fun.
In my opinion, it's fair only, if a DX-pedition team would compare
their activity on 160m and 6m with their activity in the mode RTTY.
How many QSO's and how many different calls the major DX-peditions
have worked on 160m or 6m in comparison to the total amount of QSO's
and different calls in the mode RTTY?
Any comments?
