[GreenKeys] Need favor - RTTY files!

[Jeff G]

Ah very cool I didn't realize there was a lot more (or I did and that was 6
months and 12,295 projects and family catastrophes ago).

@Harold Hallikainen <harold at w6iwi.org> this was the article/WIKI I think
would be cool in John's collection:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radioteletype#

Since this demo/exhibit is sort of around amateur radio history as opposed
to the the ship, thats why I thought it would be a good fit, but not like
someone is going to sit there and read it. (I could be wrong). I think the
history section is neat because I've yet to find otherwise that RTTY really
spearheaded the other digital modes in amateur radio. It would have
happened sooner or later anyway, but it started with RTTY (well after cw I
guess).

and @John Spigel <w1an.dxusa at gmail.com> the ships TTYs have gotten a LOT of
exercise printing your Battleship NJ files; sometimes I let them play and
come back later. The final prints can reach across the room! Every single
time I run these things, people are very surprised to see them actually
working at the ship, and I should look at social media because nearly
everybody immediately pulls out their phones and tapes them printing.
Usually I'll pop open #2 (one of the ASR dometops) to let them see the
12,000 moving parts inside. (All this is in addition to letting kids type
their names on the other dometop that punches a paper tape for them).

I gotta swap our mini-me (the 28 compact) in there with the one Nick gave
me so we can have them chat over loop; life has just been a bit tough
lately so getting there has been spotty.
