[RTTY] Field Day 2014

[Dick White]

Since I was unable to participate in my clubs FD event, I worked RTTY only
as 1D  MO from home. FD is usually a fun event with a contest attached. I
found some interesting replies to my S&P call. Below are some I copied that
made me smile.

1: the usual "PSE COPY" was present and expected

2:  KXXX KXXX 3A 3A XX XX QSL ?? DE KXXX"

3: "KS0M WE ARE 3A XX 3A XX 3A XX TNX QSO ES GL FD DE KXXX"

4: KS0M WE ARE 2A XX WHAT IS YOUR CLASS AND SECTION ???"

 

No offence to anyone, but in a regular contest  I would expect some
complaints. It was not a problem for FD operation. In 3 hours plus, I only
logged 77 contacts. Just not many RTTY stations during FD even if they count
double points (as does CW).
