[RTTY] Re: Rtty and Ritty

[Barry]

In my experience, MMTTY does a great job with 99% of signals.  On 
some of the over the pole fluttery signals (JA, UA0, etc. from east 
coast) the KAM, which I no longer own, did a marginally better job.  
Though I'm not positive, I believe the MMTTY version that was current 
about 3 years ago copied better with the multi-path and flutter 
filters than the current version, on those signals.  

When guys answer my CQ TEST, but I can't copy them due to flutter, I 
always wonder what they're using to be able copy me.  Of course, even 
if I asked that during a contest, I wouldn't be able to copy the 
answer :.)
