Hi Chen and the group,

Chen, thanks for the interesting explanation of the VP6DX RTTY!
I have one more query about the microham interface, as VP6DX exhibited the
phenomena.

Why is it that microham RTTY sounds odd? It is almost as if it is going
slow, or maybe the diddles aren't quite in step. There is a distinct sound
when someone uses a microham interface, and it is quite common in contests.

I know they have "diddle when idle" checked, as it does diddle, but somewhat
more slowly than usual.

So what causes the "sound" to change when using a microham unit? Is it due
to the different Baud rate?
