[RTTY] TinyFSK? COM? RPi?

[K8UT at charter.net]

Nope, I did not give up on the project.

I run rpiFSK here for FSK RTTY from 2Tone or MMTTY via a Raspberry Pi 3. 
Have shared the software and assisted a small handful of hams with 
running it... but it proved to be somewhat difficult to get configured, 
and I am afraid to "advertise" it too heavily because I am unable to 
provide the support that folks might need. At this stage I would have to 
classify rpiFSK as poorly suited for civilians. ;-)

Am running a variety of homebrew apps here on stand-alone Raspberry 
Pi's: rpiFSK RTTY FSK, nVSP (non virtual serial port) CAT cache and 
router, UDP band decoder switch... all of which I regularly mistreat 
with power reboot interrupts. Haven't lost a microSD card yet.
