I use MMTTY for WL but only as a plug-in engine, is RITTY a plug-in 
engine also?
id rather not RTTY contest ever if i could'nt use WL, well a serious 
contest anyway, id try the old tele-types
for a kick, along with a bag of speedy dry.

The original message was:
does anyone have the web-site were all the sound cards were tested and 
the results
not just LT's but PCI and ISA cards.

BTW i found a Turtle Beach card (Santa Cruz) and i grabed it..

But,  if RITTY is better then MMTTY where can i get it?
