[GreenKeys] Live TTY Broadcasts

[Jordan Spencer Cunningham]

For a few months I've been entertaining the idea of doing a sort of live
RTTY internet broadcast. It would basically be me manually typing away
random thoughts on one of my machines with the signals being broadcast live
online for anyone to tune in and decode using whatever hardware/software
that is handy.

Well, I finally scripted some functions for my teletype interface so I
could live broadcast RTTY signals from my machines over both my own Icecast
server (I took a leaf out of the ITTY book for that one) as well as
Youtube. The first successful live broadcast test was captured by Youtube
and is available here: https://youtu.be/wF93aENy3UI (the video in the
stream is just what my Macbook's camera was facing at the time, which is
part of my server rack downstairs)

Eventually I hope to have a weekly cadence of broadcasts. They wouldn't
have any particular topic-- they would just be random and hopefully
entertaining thoughts that at the very least could keep some people's
machines primed and oil warm. I'd also enjoy adding a sort of cryptic
puzzle at the end of each broadcast, perhaps ongoing each week with more
clues at the end of each broadcast.

I'll post details here when I settle on them if people are interested in
tuning in each week.
