James,

Well, You can find RTTY and PSK31 when the bands are open... CW most 
anytime.
If you don't hear anything on one band, move down to the next.

For a good idea of what it all sounds like...

Good luck, Enjoy

But I am not sure what RTTY sounds like or any other mode. I have the HRD on my computer and a shortwave and a HT hooked up to my computer and wish to find those frequencies and listen in. To be honest I have about 3 Shortwave Radios and I want to be able to understand what I am hearing.

I am a “new-be” to some of this but I am disabled and am trying to find more things to keep me active here between reading, playing music and Ham. Shortwave has been a hobby since I was young but I wish to enlighten myself to more.
