[GreenKeys] Hal ST-6 using it in modern times

[Jeff G]

Just curious, does anyone know of a video showing someone actually using a
Hal ST-6 TU, or something similar?

There's a Rtty contest going on, and I'd like to see, if anything, just to
be able to copy some RTTY to a real teletype. I spent the day fiddling with
radio stuff and have a magnetic loop set up in the back yard (MFJ-1786). I
have that hooked up to my Yaesu 857D, and on 20 meters I'm occasionally
seeing rtty signals, but it seems like the noise level alone triggers the
hal into printing gibberish. Not sure if my 857 can cleanly filter out just
the rtty signal, especially with the loop being very finicky. (I could prob
just clip lead a random wire outside if need be.

Naturally FLdigi has no problem picking out the rtty through the mic of a
webcam.

Oh and FYI this appears to be the RTTY contest:

Thanks!
