GM OMs;

Yeah...

When RTTY came to computers, the "art of RTTY" died.

I made several 1-2 minute contacts. No description of
their gear, no understanding - and especially not caring
about communications protocol. No CR/LF etc.

I lost interest in running RTTY for that reason. Then,
moving to a townhome with antenna restrictions in the
concrete jungle, I can't hear anything on my receiver.

I'm going to give it one more chance - by putting up a
C*MET broadband base antenna (that I can take down when
not in use) and see if I can work at least one band.

I remember the good ol' days back in the '70's when
you could get on 20M on a round table that would go
from 8:00 - 12:00 on Saturday mornings.

UE,
K2EAA - TONY
NNNN
