[GreenKeys] RTTY Roundup overlay rules

[David Tumey]

Steve,
Roger that, using a PC for logging or radio control has nothing to do with sending and receiving of RTTY signals using an electro-mechanical teleprinter.  What the rule is directed to is a software "teletype" running in parallel to your electromechanical - so you are not obtaining information from a glass terminal that for whatever reason is not printing on paper.
In my humble opinion, you are good to go with your flex and PC.--daveW5DT

If I can get things working I will be using my electromechanical equipment with a Dovetron TU connected to a FlexRadio 6700.  In order to “tune” my radio to a RTTY signal I must use my PC display.  The software, SmartSDR, is the front panel of my radio.  I’m guessing that as long as I don’t have additional software such as MMTTY, FlDigi, or the like, I’ll still be able to stay within the “spirit of these rules.”  Steve G./N4TTY  From: greenkeys-bounces at mailman.qth.net [mailto:greenkeys-bounces at mailman.qth.net] On Behalf Of Jeff Stai
