[RTTY] RTTY + FT920

[WW3S]

I use a FT-920 with an original Microkeyer when in VP9....it works, but it's 
a bear to setup.....first off, transmit the whole alphabet, and see if you 
can copy any of the letters...if you can copy half of them,but not the 
other, good chance ther pullup resistor in the 920 went bad....I'm not sure 
about the MKII, but with my microkeyer, I had to open the cable up and short 
2 pins together, that cured it, W4TV could probably tell you if the same 
thing with work with a MKII.....but try typing and transmitting the whole 
alphabet string, and see what gets decoded in the other rig....I think in my 
case, all the missing characters ended in a space, and that bad pullup 
resistor was causing trouble...
