[Elecraft] K2 - data mode r bar

[k3yt at adelphia.net]

I guess you are using software to decode.  And a lot of people
using sw to transmit.

RTTY is one of the original data modes.  As far as I know it was always LSB
using RTTY terminals and  later tnc's (or rather multimode controllers).

It does not really matter now with the software, but in the old days 
that is the way it was.  You might still encounter people holding to the 
convention of LSB.

That is why the K2 data mode has an "R" for RTTY and is LSB.

Are you sure RTTY is LSB? 

Any time I've - mistakenly - set the rig to LSB and tried to copy RTTY, I've had to invert the signal to read it. On USB I don't have to do that.

I was also under the impression that all data modes are USB, irrespective of band... Certainly my experience so far.
