I'm just reading up on RTTY conventions. Mark high is conventional for ham radio operation, but I seem to recall that Clatternet ran mark low due to limitations of certain unmodified military RTTY gear. Do any of y'all happen to know the details of this?

I'll initially need to use my boring modern hardware until I get my cool vintage RTTY gear up and running.
