After a 13 year absence from RTTY I am back and I'm using the FT-920. I
started out using AFSK, but have since moved to using FSK, and I will never go
back to AFSK. I enjoy the FT-920 on RTTY using MMTTY, and I use Writelog for
contesting. I like being able to use the DSP and CW filter while using FSK
(DATA-LSB). We are also using the rig control. The only other digital mode
that I've tried with the 920 is BSPK31, and it works fine with TrueTTY.
