[RTTY] Answering CQ's

[Byron Lichtenwalner]

Hi Tom
Today most RTTY op's are on freq. (A few still dont underswtqnd AFC and NET 
with AFSK, or realize AFC on MMTTY changes where they tune even if they use 
FSK.

Given the above statement, and contuinuing to see progress with tuning on 
freq., I am all for eliminating the call sign of the station being called, 
and 2 iteraqtions of the stqtion calling under good conditions, qnd 3 if 
poor conditions.
