[RTTY] Re: 3DA DXpedition

[George Johnson]

Paul,
I sure could use 3DA on RTTY.  And 15m or 20m would be a good choice.  A 
periodic break from CW to RTTY of 30 min sessions would really help.  The 
DX cluster would likely pass the word around at any given time but you 
would know from the CW session where your band openings were. I would 
recommend frequent RTTY excursions of shorter duration rather than a few 
long sessions.  You would provide more people with opportunity if they 
happen to be listening and avoid longer "dry" sessions after you work the 
"few" of us.
Thanks for keeping us informed and I look forward to your trip.
73, George .. W1ZT
