John,
 
Would that all computer programs include CR LF in their setup for us  
Teletype users.  I was real busy with my manual paper feed knob on my 32  when I 
made a few contacts couple weekends ago.    
 
By the way, does anyone know whether a 32 can have auto LF and CR?  I  have 
worked on many 33's with this option, but never run across a 32 with  one.  
I know lots of 28's have LF on CR installed and many more options  like 
unshift on space etc. which makes them better for RTTY use.  
 
I do have one helpful hint for 32 users.  Disable your Figs D  function so 
you wont get 20 characters of garble if while receiving some garble  in Figs 
you receive a D.  You need only remove the vertical function pawl  or even 
slip it out of its slot by pushing it rearward and to the left or  right.  
Its the next to the last pawl on the far right in the 32 stunt  box. 
 
Hope to see you on mid day from Vermont.  Only 30 watts and a dipole  at 55 
ft aimed in your direction, but think it might work well some days.

Gentlemen of RTTY. I am now using Hal's DXP38  which is a sweet little 
box. I'm using it to FSK my 7700 and it works very  well. In fact, unlike 
the soundcard glass programs the DXP38 has End of Line  (EOL) of CR, LF, 
and Ltrs so it will talk to your model 28s and 15s.
So I  would love to work any or all of you. I'm just outside of Atlanta 
so I can  cover all the US with my old Mosley Tri-Bander running 800 
watts. So please  look for me around 14.090 most days including weekends 
around midday EST  through the afternoon.
I must warn you, though - I am a rag chewer so if you  only want an RST, 
QTH, name and SK you'll find hundreds of others who will  swap radio 
memories with you. If you contact me I am going to ask you  questions and 
am ready to answer yours. I'll be listening for  you.

p.s. Although I'll be working you with a computer  and box, I will be 
printing your replies on my model 28RO, just for the  record.
