[RTTY] Calibration Check with W1AW RTTY Bulletin

I also recently learned that you can set the receive freq to 915hz so you
don't have to listen to that very high pitch at 2125.  Just tell MMTTY you
are running 915 and everything works great.

Thanks to Dick AA5VU and Richard VE3IAY for taking the time to answer my
question.  I was thinking there was something magical about a 2125 Hz tone
but that just sets the location of the Mark Freq in relation to your rigs
freq readout.  I guess that's why it doesn't really matter if you use LSB or
USB just as long as you set the mark freq and then shift in the right
direction.  I guess that's why there is a reverse button in most of the AFSK
RTTY SW.

So if I want to set up a QSO on RTTY I just need to tell the other station
what freq my Mark will be on and let them do the addition or subtraction
depending of their SW or rig. 

Thanks again
