Jack W7LD,

Thanks for the posting that reminded me of some other AFSK examples

.... and then you have the operators like your example #3 that are running
AFSK RTTY in USB rather than LSB.  It really does not matter as long
as the operator knows how to log and spot the mark frequency.

.... and then you have some logging software that reads and logs the rig's
VFO and mode settings rather than the calculated AFSK mark.
