I have been on vacation to Destin, FL and just retuned to Austin, TX to check out one of the new features W1HKJ has added to fldigi.  The addition is a user configurable option to report and log RTTY using the Mark frequency.

I was lucky to run into Dick K4JJW this morning on 20 meter RTTY and found he was using an Icom IC-7700 in FSK mode with MMTTY. I almost fell over when we both agreed we were on 14082.000.  Amazing, to get Icom and Kenwood users to agree on the RTTY frequency when one is running FSK and the other is using AFSK. 

Kudos to W1HKJ for the new RTTY enhancement to report and log the Mark for frequency. This is a very welcome and appreciated addition to fldigi.

Off topic but some of you may appreciate the depressing milage sign noted a few miles into Texas from the LA border Saturday morning. Welcome to Texas!
