> Rules are here:

>   http://www.arrl.org/contests/rules/2007/rtty.html
>
>   1.  Message buffers should have a carriage return at the
>       beginning and a space at the end
>
>   2.  End your CQ or QRZ messages with the word CQ or QRZ
>
>   3.  (DX) Separate numbers with hyphens and/or spaces
>
>   4.  RST is 599 not 5NN
>
>   5.  Don't use phrases like "in", "hr in", "nr", "please copy"
>       etc. in your exchange - keep 'em short! (Al in DE, OK?)
>
>   6.  Avoid beacon and PSK frequencies (like 14070 and 14100)
>
>   7.  Send (hiscall) report (mycall) or (hiscall) report (hiscall)
>
>   8.  Put RTTY in your DX spot comments (WL does this automatically)
