[RTTY] Off Frequency Stations.

Mick:

I find this a fairly common event. I don't use AFC in MMTTY even when I run. I use FSK so I just turn the RIT to capture. I think people click on spots whose mark  frequency is just a bit off. I notice this from time to time as the offset is somewhat consistent. Since I don't alter my transmit frequency this is my take.

Subject: [RTTY] Off Frequency Stations.

Hi Group I am relatively new to RTTY and RTTY Contesting,and I have a question .

When taking part in the BARTG 75 Sprint last weekend,a lot of Stations who 
answered my CQ call were slightly off my Frequency,so I had to fine tune their 
signal with my RIT control.

I was just wondering if this was normal,or if I was doing something wrong?

I'm using MMTTY Ver. 1.66G and my radio is an Icom756 pro3,in FSK,and using 
'RTTY' mode on the rig.

I was'nt quick enough with the RIT control,forcing me to send 'AGN AGN??' which 
used up valuable time.

Hope someone can help.TNX,Mick,MI0GRG
