[Elecraft] CW station calling an RTTY station: use mark or space frequency?

[Leigh L Klotz, Jr.]

Wayne,
MultiPSK is testing a Reed-Solomon based mode identifier using a 
key-codeword and parallel decoding. When the program is in auto mode, it 
will detect and automatically switch modes.Then you would just have to 
send a special CW character sequence and the receiving program would 
switch to CW mode.    I don't know if CW is one of the modes but I will 
ask the author, Patrick FC6TE.    Other digimode programs are exploring 
this as well.
