[RTTY] FW: If you care about CW and RTTY - time is of the essence

Ron,

It's also classified as Phone under current rules, irrespective of what the emission designators say it is. Also, to the best of my knowledge (and I say this because I'm in quite a few System Fusion message groups) there is absolutely zero interest in operating it on HF; D-STAR does show up on the HF bands occasionally, but for a very short time and in the Phone portion of the bands.
