[RTTY] [linuxham] RTTY WPX AA5VU SOAB HP

[Harry Bloomberg]

I am by no means a big time RTTY person or contester, but I operated the
contest for a few hours today with my KX3 and Fldigi and Pitt's new huge 4
element SteppIR yagi.  Had a ton of fun, worked about 30 stations on 20
through 10M.  Best DX was Chile with 5W.  Fldigi worked great...even
figured out how to automatically generate sequential serial numbers!

73,
