[GreenKeys] 2018 RTTY RU to include a "REAL" Teletype award category

[Wayne Durkee]

Kevin,


Its a challenge to work  with "Glass" teletypes.  


You can anticipate the CR and LF's and certainly get your LF's with the platen hand crank on a 15.  Cant remember if the local CR is available with the cover on or not.  Either way, you need 3 hands to keep up.


73,


Wayne

I used a Model 15 in the first RTTY contest I worked and it would end up pounding holes in the paper at the end of a  line because of this.  I also subscribe to the RTTY contesting list and a lot of those folks think that any extraneous characters is a waste of milliseconds.
