This was my first dabble in the CQWW RTTY contest.
RTTY contesting is a lot easier than CW or SSB. There is no struggling to
copy weak signals. If it doesn't print on the screen, you go the next
station. You don't have to worry about using the RIT control or forgetting
to reset it to zero. It's no-hassle contesting.
I've decided, RTTY is a good mode for contesters that are ready to retire
from contesting, but want to phase out gradually.
Great fun!
73, Bill
