I can see where this one is headed :) I think it can be done with WSPR right
now but to gain the full effect how about using old phone modems with
modified software and as Joe pointed out you would need busy detect. The
phone modem protocol is fully documented by the way.

Subject: [RTTY] New proposal for a Automated Digital Contest
Well my last proposal flopped big time but it spawned a very interesting
thread on the history of RTTY RU and the amount of efforts spent in
processing contesting results. Thanks for all of the comments.
So I am now thinking about proposing a new contest. The contest would be
used to study propagation. The initial thoughts are somewhere along the
line of a RTTY sprint contest but do it in a fully automated way. Since
its automated it should probably be done in the FCC sub-bands set aside for
automated digital stations. In order to do a proper study of propagation
we probably need to run the contest 24 x 7.
Both client and server software would need to be developed to support the
contest.
