[RTTY] Multiple Decoders

[Jeff Blaine]

Chen,

Since we seem to be unable to entice you to come to the "dark side..."  Can 
you then expand a bit on the sync scheme comment?

There clearly is a growing market as the trends for RTTY are on an upward 
trend much greater than SSB/CW.  But other than Airlink (which has no 
wide-band I/Q capability), there seems to not be much development of tool 
enhancements for for contesting or DX chasing.

I've seen a few comments of skimmer-type RTTY decoders from some EU guys. 
And Dave has done a bit with MMTTY which is great - but I've seen nothing 
like what you are suggesting.

It'd cost you $599, but don't send the check to me.

Someone else (sorry, but I don't do Windows) should be able to easily create 
an "ATC-diversity" front end for MMTTY.  I.e., run N headless copies of 
MMTTY, gather the output and send a single decoded character to the screen.

That being said, from my more recent investigations, I think you will get a 
*much* better bang for the buck by spending your time looking into better 
character-sync schemes for RTTY.

P.S. Of course, you can also write a simple program to run two headless 
copies of MMTTY to use for split-DX chasing.
