Hi RTTY ops.

My understanding of ending a transmission with "K" is an invitation for anyone to transmit.
Hence if I see:-
AA5AU K, I will call him.
if I see:-
AA5AU BK, I wait before calling him.
Likewise ending a CQ call during test with either "CQ" or "TEST" perform same function.
Most useful, and instils some order when practised

None to sure about "de", invariably I end up sending my call so many times before people decode the call, that the "de" seems lost in the whole effort.

If you need an old version of MMTTY (1.61) you can download one here:-

73 cu in next test.
