Folks:
With the advent of sound card modem software there seems to be a large pent 
up demand for RTTY contacts from DX ops with stations running 30 watts to a 
dipole.  If you are near the East Coast of the US with a good 20 meter 
antenna, I would encourage you to spend some time working some of these 
stations on a weekend and then fill out the QSL cards.
It would be good if we could encourage the "little pistol" stations in 
apartment buildings with the balcony antennas of the advantages of robust 
modes like MFSK.  But in the meantime, you can make someone happy by 
turning on the amp and trying to pick out the weak signals from the 
"pile-up" that may result.
