[RTTY] "Straight key night" for RTTY

[Roger Cooke]

I got rid of my model 19 set some years ago.  I would at that time have 
given my right arm for a 28ASR. That was the
holy grail in the UK. I don't think anybody ever did get one.

  No, you will have to put up with me on the "grey keys" now!  However, 
I can type lots more than 599 73!

I was taught by the maestro - G3CQE - the first G on HF RTTY.

73 de Roger, G3LDI
