[RTTY] ARRL attack on current RTTY users

[Andreas Rehberg]

Pactor 4 can establish a link with initial deviation of +/- 280Hz..
& 'AFC' has been implemented ever since Pactor 1..

However, if you go watch some of the stuff going on around 14110, it is almost comical. You will see two PACTOR stations that are off tuned by 100 Hz beeping at one another for a minute without even establishing a link. These guys could not even zero beat their rigs to within 100 Hz of one another -- not to mention the lack of any AFC system. "Modern modes," my foot. (100 Hz is how far off Pactor III should lock, according to their specs.)

I am not sure, but I think Winmor, as an "AFSK" system, may be way superior to Pactor when it comes to tuning.
