[RTTY] Time on my hands

[Bill Turner]

As Eddie, W6/G something-or-other pointed out, one has lots of time out
here on the west coast during the Russian RTTY contest...

So, I got to wondering why the Russian RTTY contest is conducted in
English.

Could it be there are no Cyrillic Baudot characters?  Come to think of
it, every RTTY transmission I've ever heard was either English or
French.  Might have heard a Spanish one, can't remember for sure.

Ok, (yawn), back to the contest.    :-)
