[Elecraft] QRP RTTY

[Bill Frantz]

To follow up: Many messages, both on and off list, indicated I 
should give RTTY a good try during field day. My results this 
year were a total of 201 digital QSOs with 21 RTTY QSOs. I had 3 
dups between RTTY and PSK. (RUMPed seems to consider RTTY & PSK 
separate modes and I didn't manually detect the dups until I had 
the entire log loaded into a spread sheet.) I would guess that I 
completed a contact with about 80% of the RTTY stations I 
called, actually a pretty good rate.

So yes, QRP RTTY is worth doing.
