Out of curiosity, is anyone transmitting only one stop bit in RTTY (i.e., "5-N-1"). EXTFSK from MMTTY appears to be fixed at 1.5 stop bits (I think), and many of the modems are transmitting either 1.5 or 2 stop bits. the AFSK software out there seems to default to 1.5 as well. I haven't seen anyone sending one stop bit that I can recall, but I haven't done a systematic survey. I imagine some of the Baudot-supporting UARTS might default to 5N1, but I'm not sure.
For the curious, 2Tone will show the stop-bit duration of the signal it is receiving in the bottom status bar (22ms = 1 bit at 45baud). If you print your TX audio in 2Tone it will show you what stop bit duration that you are *really* sending.
Thanks,
