After reading the above cheap shot, a light bulb suddenly lit up. Does
this guy know anything about RTTY contesting?

I went to my log of over 50,000 RTTY contest QSOs and looked up how
many I have with W4TV.

Take a guess... ZERO! NONE! NADA! 

Thinking there must be some mistake, I found he had a previous call
and looked that up (K4IK). Take another guess... ONE RTTY QSO!!! ONE!!
On ten meters, three years ago!

Joe is not even a RTTY contester!!! Arrrrgggghhhh!!! What a waste of
time debating this guy!

All credibility is gone Joe, to say the least. Come back when you know
what you are talking about, maybe after a couple dozen RTTY contests.

They're really a lot of fun. You ought to try some!
