[SCCC] NAQP RTTY N6PE Single Op LP

[Rick D]

Well I beat my estimate of 1 or 2 QSOs. Spent most of the morning getting RS 
cables and stuff to hook up AFSK then trying to figure out the sound 
card/computer setting to keep the VOX from keeping the key down. You will 
find the extremely high QSO/hr astounding, or not hi hi

I used NA to log and MMTTY to send, what a pain that was. I had to just 
S&P.... tried a few CQs and screwed them up, sorry guys hi hi

This was more fun (or torture) than the 160 contest. I've got Writelog and 
MMTTY now and I'm in the process of hooking up FSK.
New computer doesn't have LPT or COM ports so if I can't get the USB to 
work, I'm going to add a card to the computer.

Using AFSK I couldn't use the RTTY filters in the PRO III so trying to 
operate 40 and 80 was like being poked in the eye with a sharp stick.

Scary thing was being able to recognize my call being sent in RTTY.
I'm investigating the auto mode. The XYL would love it if I could do a 
contest just by setting up the computer and letting it call CQ all weekend.
