[GreenKeys] The Old and The New

[Roy Norris]

Eugene and all,

I think ITTY is a great term.  Internet Teletype.  I like the sound of
it.  And Geroge, the term you were going to use for the now dead Radio
Teletype Broadcast of "Wide Cast"  really fits this new medium well.
"Wide Cast" is the service and the mode is ITTY.  Now if you would just
run the output of your broadcast program through a mechanical repeater
before you pipe it into "shout Cast" we could at least "sanitize" the
signal somewhat and remove as much of the computer "stink" off the
signal as possible before shipping it out over the internet to our
pristine Mechanical (the only kind) Teletype Machines :)  Also, throw in
a little distortion just to keep things realistic and we can fiddle with
our range finders !

Regards -- Roy, K4EEG

Maybe we ought to coin a new acronym, "ITTY" instead of RTTY to describe
George's teletype over internet as opposed to teletype over radio.
(Internet Teletype vs Radio Teletype)
