[RTTY] Dupes how to handle

[Alejandro V. XE1EE]

Yes i saw your pileup and it was huge, there was another EI station calling 
also and don't know why he had less clients.

FSK is better than AFSK, still you can use autotune function of you're 
running mmtty + N1MM logger. I have a ProIII and it works just like yours, 
with a very narrow filter and a good performance on a crowded frequency.

If you have the chance, try Writelog, i'ts a great software,  I knew it 
thanks to XE2K, once I started using it, I quit using MixW and N1MM, as well 
as AFSK is no longer in my shack hi. It works great as a everyday program to 
work/log Dxpeds and so on.

Looking forward to work you soon, 73!
