[RTTY] What causes RTTY with longish character spacing?

[John Elsik]

I also use a microHam interface and do not have that problem.

The only thing I can think of with a microham interface doing that is with the strict bps box checked.

For me if it sent RTTY that slow I would throw it in the trash.
