For FD, run both modes. You will have better Q rates on RTTY but it's
possible you may run out of guys to work if FD activity on RTTY is light
that year. So moving to PSK will let you keep running but the Q rate will
be less as there will be more casual ops there and the occasional longwinded
exchange will pop up from time to time.

Yes, but sometimes you need to move data.

In a real life emergency, the mode to use is SSB. It's much faster,
doesn't require a computer and conveys urgency much better than any
digital mode.
I love the digital modes, but when life and/or property is at stake,
give me a mike.
