[RTTY] Dupes, and handling them

[Alejandro V. XE1EE]

Well in normal operation or when we have some contests worked, If i cannot 
copy the exchange i'll send NR NR AGN ? or something like that.. but YES.. i 
have seen that before and it is exactly when the QSO B4 macro comes to 
scene.

I'm agree with you I love RTTY Contesting, it's my main operation mode, then 
CW and at the end SSB. A friend of mine told me that my PTT i should call 
it: Push to Tune hi !
