[Elecraft] Digitmodes what am I missing

[WILLIS COOKE]

Neither Denis nor I, nor anyone else said that no one does or should like digital.  No one is trying to do away with digital or make it less legal.  We just said that we did not care for it because it is too much like e-mail which we obviously do not want to get away from because we are participating.  We just said that we enjoy CW and do not want to lose it either.  RTTY annoys me because it takes up the whole band, but PSK,  not so much.  But, if you would like, I will go on record that PSK or RTTY has not proved to be either immoral or fattening.

Hi Art,

I just went to the Freedv web site: : http://freedv.org/tiki-index.php

Looks interesting. Thanks for the suggestion.
