[1000mp] Rascal interface and RTTY

[Tad Williamson]

John, I'm using a Rascal with MMTTY, FSK and a MKV and
it works great.  There is a setting in MMTTY for FSK
that you ahve to enable and if I remember correctly, I
had to change the polarity thru a menu setting on the
FT-1000.  I know I have the sttings somewhere at home
but I'm not sure I can come up with them quickly. 
Anyway, it works very well using the Rascal, the cable
from BuxComm and the RTTY port on the back of the
1000.  I have the cable for packet/PSK but I haven't
tried it yet.
Hope that helps.
73, Tad, WF4W
