[UK-CONTEST] CC Data

[Roger Cooke]

Hi Neil.

   Yes, precisely!  I have been using 75 on 20 metres for some time and have had quite a number of
contacts, hence my vigorous support for it on the RTTY reflector. To that end, BARTG will be organising
a 75 Baud Sprint in June, only four hours, in the evening on 20/15/10 to see how 75 Bauds will be 
accepted. Make a note of it in your diary, details on the BARTG web site.

Why do we stick to 45.5 anyway? Surely 99.9% of RTTY is now computer
generated so a switch to 75 baud would be easy.

There is paint drying and then PAINT DRYING!!!

PSK is bad enough in contests.  I am proposing RTTY move to 75 Bauds. Now
that WOULD liven things up a bit!

Already been suggested Graham; QSP from my Cabrillo file -

SOAPBOX: Another fun session on PSK. How about adding SSTV as a mode too?

Hi All

Usual struggle with PSK last night. Just got a station tuned in then they
disappeared. Quite a few times the station reappeared but on a slightly
different frequency so had retune then they went again before got call, VERY
frustrating. I think a course on the use of NET and AFC is needed by some
stations. Ratio RTTY to PSK was 4:1. 28 RTTY 7 PSK. After the finish, while
my brain was cooling down, I had a ghastly thought, what if the Contest
Committee had another flash of madness and next year decided to combine SSB
with SSTV!!!! now there's a thought, oops maybe I've lit the blue touch
paper.
