[GreenKeys] Active HF RTTY Frequencies

[Andrew, Jim]

> Hello Greenkeyers,=20

> I've seen a couple of threads recently inquiring about sources of =
baudot RTTY outside the amateur bands. We're certainly not in the heyday =
of shortwave RTTY and the information that is out in the public domain =
is woefully outdated. However, all is not lost. =20
>=20
> Below is a list of shortwave RTTY stations that I can confirm are =
accurate and active as I have personally monitored each recently, most =
in the past few weeks. Frequencies are my dial readings on USB (R =3D =
reverse shift). UTC is the time (in UTC, obviously) I logged the =
station. While accurate, this list is certainly not all-inclusive. There =
are still plenty of targets out there, at shifts and baud rates to =
please the whole family.=20
