[RTTY] Lids running RTTY on the JT65 Frequency

[Jim W7RY]

Agreed Bill!

Amateur radio has MANY facets;

VHF
UHF
Moonbounce
Repeaters
  IRLP and Allstar Linking
QRP
CW
Phone
   AM
   SSB
   FM
Rag Chewing
Emergency Communications (important people in high vis coats and vests)
Wide band SSB
RTTY
SSTV
Contesting
   SSB
   CW
   RTTY

There are going to be some weekends,  you don’t get to do your "thing" on 
the "the bands".


I'm glad our hobby has so many facets.
