[Elecraft] CQ WW WPX RTTY

[Andrew Faber]

This does work.  I just made 4 qsos in the contest with Field Tester Ed 
Muns, P49X, using my K3 without any special software.  What works for me is 
to record messages in memories in CW mode, then send them in Data mode (FSK 
D).  At the end of each message add the character Greg describes, all sent 
as one character.  Make sure the text decoder seems to be reading the 
message correctly, as sometimes either less or more spacing than sounds 
right on CW seems to be necessary to get the message just right.  The TX 
TEST mode is very helpful for this.
