[RTTY] FT5XO on 30m RTTY? One can hope...

[Barry]

Funny how our experiences differ from the same part of the country.  
I haven't worked them on 30m yet.  I thought they had a better signal 
on 40m, but maybe that's because I don't have any WARC antennas 
(though I have 250+ countries on them).  I use my 80m ant on 30 and 
my 40m ant on 17 and 12.

In any case, does anyone know when they may operate RTTY?  SOunds 
like a great operation so far, with good ops and stations on every 
open band.
