[RTTY] rtty and ICOM-706MKIIG

[morris_karen at bellsouth.net]

Jeff:

Welcome to RTTY!  It is a fun mode and the contesting is great.  I use an
IC-706IIG on RTTY and have used both AFSK and FSK.  The RTTY mode on this
rig is FSK.  It sounds like you are feeding audio from MMTTY to the rig - in
that case you use USB or LSB, depending on the band.  There is a jack on the
back for FSK - whether you can operate FSK depends on the interface.

I need some help getting my Icom-706MKIIG toTX. I can receive ok and  I 
am using mmty

mmty keys the radio ok and operating mode on the Icom is set rtty. All I 
get out of the radio is
a continous tone. I never get the radio diddle on TX. I am using the acc 
port on radio for
audio in/out and PTT.

If I change operating mode to USB on the Icom I can get the Icom to TX 
the diddle. I can get audio into the radio
ok on any mode except rtty. I've checked all the setting per the Icom 
manual?

After some experimenting, I find even if I unplug the acc cable from the 
radio and TX  I only get a continous tone NO diddle, diddle.

I am a new general operator kc0qza/ag any help would be appericated
