[Elecraft] Almost Perfect RTTY copy

[Ron D'Eau Claire]

Generally on Saturdays between 1700Z and 2300Z you'll find RTTY from KSM in California on 6328.0 kHz, 8433.0 kHz and 12631.0 kHz running Baudot at 170cps 45 baud alternating with FEC at 170cps 100 baud. They also transmit news feeds via Morse on 4350.5, 6474.0 8438.3, 12993.0 16914.0 and 22445.8 kHz.

KSM is a licensed commercial common carrier public coast station run by the Maritime Radio Historical Society (www.radiomarine.org)

Hi Jack, 
 
I thought that HF RTTY newsfeeds were gone long ago. Is there much activity
like what you copied these days? And my more curious question, who are such
broadcasts intended for? I used to like listening to the BBC voice
broadcasts on HF but I think they shut them down. Is there much interesting
on HF these days to listen to or decode?
