[GreenKeys] 75 baud RTTY

[Ralph Mowery]

Back in the 1980's or so lots of the RTTY 'pictures' were sent.  With good
conditions on 20 meters 100 wpm could be used without many errors.  It would
al so depend on the demodulator being used.  With hand typing 60 wpm worked
better under less than ideal conditions.

Well I'm talking about mmore ancient history, not what's going on now.

I don't remember now the source of the assertion that faster than 45 baud 
is not successful on HF radio - and of course it was not that higher 
speeds are always impossible, just that from time to time there are 
conditions where the lower speeds work significantly better.
