"Additionally, traditional RTTY is still a "hear it" mode. I actually
listen to the tones and while obviously I can't decode them by ear, I
can certainly tune them by ear. Furthermore, MMTTY, which I use,
decodes one signal at a time, the one I tune in and respond to. So, at
least in my operation, I have to be there and actively engaged."
That's one way to enjoy RTTY. Others use GRITTY.
Try leaving FT8 unattended, and see how many QSOs it makes by itself?
