Viable with decent resonant antennas. Good enough for some fun in the
contests but PSK may be better for rag-chewing. 
That power level should cause no problem with interference to neighbours,
but avoid over-priced magic 'work all bands on this little piece of wire'
antennas!

So where I live, I have a lot of neighbors...really close neighbors.  I need
to keep them happy.  I have permission from the powers that be to put up
some antennas.


So I ask, how viable is RTTY at "QRP" power levels?   I am talking about 
a max of about 10 watts.  I want to do general rag chewing and a little
contesting.


Your comments and suggestions are wanted.


thanks
