[RTTY] : Signals that don't decode

On 40 meter onSaturday I heard some of the worst sounding RTTY signals I have ever heard.  Very distorted from several stations that surprised me.  It was like they were running AFSK with way too much audio gain into a amp that made it even worst. The same stations were clean on 20 meter so it may have just been weird band conditions.  I had no problem decoding but they sounded terrible.
