[Elecraft] Lids running RTTY on the JT65 Frequency

[Michael Adams]

I thought that contesting was a manifestation of how boys with toys naturally like to see whose toys are the best / or who can use their toys the best.

"Best toys" is, of course, the reason that we're here (to bring the thread sorta on topic).  :)

JT65 is indeed audible and has a very distinct sound.
Not sure about the bragging you speak of???

Since Contesting is supposed to teach Amateurs to be better operators (for emergencies and the like)I would be led to believe that the contester of all people should be one to take the most stringentsteps to operate in a manner as to not cause interference to other operators, would you not agree?
After all in a real emergency you would mot want to be causing interference, correct?
