When you run more than one decoder, you gain diversity. When you run 2Tone
is a second RTTY window, MMTTY is still decoding in the other. Both decode
the same signal at the same time. There will be times when both decode fine.
There will be times when MMTTY will decode something that 2Tone misses and
times when 2Tone decodes something that MMTTY doesn't.

MMTTY has been a good decoder for many years (since 2000 I think), but 2Tone
is hands down better overall. I currently run MMTTY in one RTTY window and
2Tone in two additional receive-only windows.

What is the advantage of running 2Tone as a second decoder? What happens to
MMTTY while it is running? Do you switch back & forth between them? 
Would it be okay to just run 2Tone as your only decoder? Does it have some
superiority over MMTTY? (Sorry...That's a lot of questions, but I've only
been running RTTY for about a year and a half, so I'm still learning).
