[RTTY] RTTY qso rate

[K3MQ - Bob Johnson]

I'm fairly new to RTTY contesting, and am just wodering what a "decent" qso rate would be in the CQWW.

Obviously, there are many, many variables, but let's say the op is using a single radio, has a modest station (beam at 50', wires for 40/80, running 700 watts, located east of Miss river), works 24-30 peak hours, and uses good contest techniques. And WORKS DUPES.

Again, I know there are other variables so please don't "flame" my question. It would be good to have a rate goal to reach for in the upcoming CQWW.
