[RTTY] EU1SA, AA6YQ profiles in MMTTY

I'm not aware of a profile optimized for weak signal work, but I have in
mind several improvements to MMTTY's RTTY decoder that should improve its
weak signal capabilities.

Hi Dave,

May I know if there is another profile available that is optimized for weak
signal work?

Meaning the settings are providing the maximum ability to deal with low SNR
conditions.

THanks

How does one access these profiles?
( I know it's a dumb question.....but how will I learn if I don't ask?)

Thanks, Vladimir, I'm glad we have connected.
 
While you may have developed the EU1SA profile for contesting, I have
found
it quite helpful when DXing. As most of the entities I still need on RTTY
are rare, the ability to decode when multiple signals are present is
(unfortunately) useful.

Dave,
 
As I am quite familiar with the profile (see my signature), let me add a
couple of words to the discussion.
The "EU1SA" profile is mostly not about decoding, but first of all, it's
about extra filtering. It makes the MMTTY RX bandwith exactly matching the
RTTY signal. The brickwall DSP filter with sharp skirts cuts everything
off
but the desired signal. It is clearly seen at the tuning indicator. With
such a set up you can even use wide SSB filters and still have pretty nice
results overall. Obviously if you use other filters, as well, it makes the
overall selectivity even better.
 
Yet another positive aspect of that is the tuning easiness. It comes from
the fact that only one and only signal matches the bandwith. The moment
you
tuned to a station, the signal is already readable/decodable and you only
need a bit of fine tuning, if any.
 
As you can see, this profile is mostly just another contesting tool. It
helps quick tuning and easy decoding regardless adjucent QRM. And still,
it
provides the decoder with a narrower bandwith to process, virtually one
signal a time.

I just tried those two profiles, listening to FM1FV run a
pileup on 14084. Neither profile copied as well as the
standard rtty profile, which I had running in a separate
window. Are the EU1SA and AA6YQ profiles supposed to be used
under special circumstances only?
