[GreenKeys] TTY on 40 meters

[Larry Tighe]

OK this is for the daring amongest us.

I have the 40 meter dipole up and pruned to 7.1 MHz.  1000 watts forward and 
about 10 or less watts reflected.  After raising and lowering the dipole 
about 10 or so times, we (my son and I) got the reflected to virtually zero.

I will place my carrier on any freq near there, LSB and adding 2.125 to the 
freq readout should give me the Mark position.....yes?

I'll be using a AN/UGC-74B which is only manual typing and only prints a 
line when there's "enough" characters in the buffer to do so.  Hoping to 
hook up with some other slow typing, non-glass, patient ham from this list. 
Desperately trying to get back to the 60's!!

Gotta walk b'fore ya can run.

Be available sometimes during the weekend as I have to run to NYC for 
various projects in motion.
