*     Then please allow me to correct my statement......Change "new RTTY 
operators"  to "new RTTY operators
     with minimal to NO CW abilities just don't give a rip about CW".

     MY experience is RTTY is constantly opening up on TOP OF CW QSO's.  
And not only during contest times. 
     Again I am refering to 40 meters.  I have not noticed this type of 
lid activities on other bands.

     Red is for seperation of text only.
