[RTTY] Question: Alinco DX-70 for RTTY

[David VE3VID]

I have a couple questions about the Alinco DX-70 100w series of HF rigs before buying one.  If anyone knows or has used on of these I'd appreciate some help.................

 

1)  The manual says it does AFSK RTTY but does not mention if the PA is rated for 100% duty cycle.

 

2)  What years were these radios made?

 

3)  Is this a good rig for RTTY or is it a dud?

 

4)  Its small size and weight would be great for travel when I'm portable VY0.  What would be a reasonable price used?

 

 

Thanks for any comments
