Yes, but CQ-WW-RTTY goes in the CONTEST: field, not in the CAREGORY: 
field. Notice that the only options for mode-category in the CATEGORY: 
field are CW, SSB or MIXED. The problem is that Writelog was putting 
RTTY in the CATEGORY: field. This part of the specification should 
probably be changed.
