Thanks for the tips, Adam. The rig worked OK on the 2 TTY Q's I made 
today. I *HATE* intermittent problems.
I did a reset afterward just to get that out of the way.

Yep, I'm computer controlled.
I don't understand the rest of what you proposed. When you say 
'Configure for RTTY' do you mean something other than selecting RTTY 
mode? How would I send a signal to pin 1?
