[RTTY] RTTY Digest, Vol 105, Issue 24

Sun Sep 25 02:03:27 PDT 2011

I wish to thank every one for the input to this and will try out RTTY
when I return home next month, I will hook it up the the icom 706mk2
and see what happens, we have a few rtty operators in the area so if I
need help on the setup I will check with them also, along with this
group. I have also a new Yaesu FT857d that I will add to the station
and just recently purchased a Rigtalk for the yaesu.

The gear I have is mostly signalink SL+1 and mostly run 3 different
dipoles, I have thought of directionals but in my area we have
typhoons that usually travel past our place alot. I live close to the
Manila area and usually have the jets fly over my home.
