[RTTY] RTTY is getting lower and lower in frequency on 20

[John - AI4FR]

I am not taking sides in the CW issue but at the same time I do not want to see CW leave as a requirement. None of us truly know if it will help or hurt the hobby. But this is a MAJOR RTTY contest with a lot of people getting in it. When there is a MAJOR CW contest, the signals from that travel up into the nose bleed area on 20 meters. One thing I have noticed though is that the rtty ops do not complain when that happens.

This weekend during the WPX I copied stations as low as 14.060.  All of the PSK frequencies were clobbered with RTTY signals.

I guess that with the No Code law that CW operators won't get any respect
