I have long wanted to promote such a thing. But I think that limiting it to
just heavy metal RTTY would make for limited participation. Let me try this
instead:
- Get on the air with the oldest equipment you can scrape together. Real
heavy metal Teletypes to be sure, but if that isn't available: hardware
modems, VT100 terminals, pre-Windows computers, etc. And vacuum tubes. ;)
But whatever you do, join in!
- NO BRAG TAPES. Please no pre-recorded messages. Have a real conversation
by hand typing it. If you are slow we'll happily wait. A CQ macro is okay
but you would have better bragging rights if you hand typed that too.
I personally own no heavy metal but this could get me to get my old CP/M
machine up and running again.
