[SMCARA] RTTY On FTdx-3000

[Bill Jones]

So RTTY is mainly a USB for of communications whether you are working the
80/40M Band or 20/10 Band? In anycase, I need to look at my settings, there
was a lot of RTTY traffic in the 15/12/10Meter bands and I could decode
them all. So something is set wrong somewhere. If the Radio is set for USB,
and is the predominant way of communication using RTTY, then I need to
review or check my settings and see what is incorrectly set or not set
right. Thanks! Bill
