[GreenKeys] Special Halloween Broadcast

[Jordan Spencer Cunningham]

D'oh

I've been staying up really late prepping for this and other things coming up. I will blame my sleep-deprived brain on this one. ZZZZ and NNNN are the same, just rotated 90 degrees. :)

This is new to both you and me, and I'm using an unusual mark/space frequency. If it was't clear, 1313 was chosen due to 13's association with all things odd and macabre to keep with the tradition of the holiday-- just a small detail to enhance today's experience purely for fun, though I fear it may be causing more angst than it is worth.

>>> This Halloween, keep the oil in your machines warm by tuning in to a special news broadcast of astronomically thrilling proportions. It will be an adapted-for-teletype version of the original radio broadcast of *The War of the Worlds *from 1938, 81 years ago today. Tune in at 4:00 PM Mountain Time on October 31, 2019 (tomorrow).

>>> There will be an audio stream in ITTY fashion here <http://tty.nerdology.org:8000/livetty>. Pipe the RTTY audio to your TU/demods and print it out on your heavy metal machines, or use a glass terminal such as fldigi, CocoaModem, or MMTTY. There will also be a live video of my TT-7/FG (U.S. military Model 19) printing the broadcast here <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mw-sWwXLiVA> for anyone who can't receive RTTY but wants to see a heavy metal machine in action.

>>> 

>>> The broadcast will be between three and four hours long, but there will be breaks of radio silence in between many segments. Therefore, for heavy metal users, it is recommended to use an autostart feature if your equipment supports it.

>>> 

>>> Mark frequency will appropriately be 1313.00 Mhz, 170 Mhz shift.

>>> Enjoy!
