You are of course right, Jim.

75 Baud RTTY will enable this expedition to work at least 1 QSO per hour.  There will be a huge decrease in any foreign contacts as most will not even figure out the 100 WPM speed.

This is one of the worst ideas to ever surface.  Sort of like working 100 WPM in a RTTY contest.

I'll let Chen address the phase-shift and polar problems.  But don't use your 250 Hz filters as they won't work!
