"The "clean up" you see is due entirely to the Elecraft's unique AFSK
filter.  Before anyone can generalize those results to a wider range
of transceivers, please repeat the measurements on Yaesu FT-1000MP
and Icom 7600/765Pro-x *at a minimum* as examples of transceivers
most likely to be in a competitive contest station.

There is no need to also repeat the measurements on a 20 year old
FT-840 with a badly misaligned analog balanced modulator driven by
an "all knobs max" signal from an interface that hangs an unbuffered
diode detector directly across the output of the sound chip feeding
the dynamic microphone (<5 mV) input ... but it would be interesting
to show just what a segment of the RTTY community is *really* using."

Excellent suggestions Joe!! I'll be standing by for the results...
