[ADXA] The RTTY count.

[Earl]

Nice to hear all the chatter about RTTY. Always been my first love.

Totals here now are: 341 Total and 337 Current. All are RTTY not any 
"WSJT" modes for new ones.

Of course hoping to catch the remaining 3 on RTTY. Maybe -Maybe not.

Still need Bouvet Island, Crozet Island and Scarborough Reef.

BUT currently I have 280 worked with 268 confirmed with WSJT Modes. For 
whatever that is worth!! ;-))

No brag - just fact. ("Walter Brennan")

73, Earl N5ZM..
