[1000mp] AFSK RTTY Polarity

[Jim Preston]

Chris,

Yes, RTTY is normally received (and transmitted when using AFSK) in LSB 
by tradition. If you are receiving in LSB then the software should 
decode properly with out changing the polarity. I know MMTTY works this 
way. I haven't tried the other software you mentioned.
