My problem with the CQ WW RTTY was I could hear much better than I could
transmit. Running in the LP category it was an act of frustration to hear
plenty but only able to work about 25% of what I could hear. I did invest a
lot of time in RFI suppression at my QTH and with the MFJ noise canceller
on 80/40 100% print on my end wouldn't get their attention when I
transmitted.
