[RTTY] RTTY Growth

[Bill Turner]

It is indeed good to see. I started RTTY contesting almost by accident 
in the early '90s and nowdays it is almost all I do on the air, save for 
chasing those elusive last 11 countries. I think the major contributor 
to the growth is software, specifically WriteLog and MMTTY in the USA 
and some other Windows programs elsewhere in the world. Let's hope it 
continues on.
