[UK-CONTEST] Re QTC in WAEDC RTTY

[Mike Farmer]

Having got L32 running on RTTY I spent 3 days trying to get N1MM to do the
same! Failed so worked  about 100 using L32. hence the use of NO QTC from
G3VAO!  Have finally got N1MM going (this morning) so perhaps next year!!

Last time I used RTTY it was a Creed 7B and about 40KW (military comms!!!!)
It was also in the early 70's - oh boy ain't it improved all I need know is
decent typing skills
