[RTTY] RU-NAQP Conflict

[7L4IOU]

Hi Don 

>REMEMBER, IN THE USA WE CAN NOW OPERATE RTTY BETWEEN 7100-7125 kHz.  I've not heard RTTY up 

It's a good idea.

We also have the same segment for RTTY as "NB All Modes" and it actually 
uses for domestics Digital QSOs.

I want to try in RTTY RU. 

May I QSP your idea to my friends by our mailing list?
