Hello everyone,

Thanks to the reflector, I know there is a RTTY contest this weekend.  What
I would like to know is, will the setup I use for FT8 on my IC-7300 work
for RTTY as well?

I haven't worked RTTY since 1995, so remember very little of it. I can't
even remember what RTTY program I used, so I am open for suggestions.  I
put up an 130' end fed sloper for this event, so I would like to put it to
work.

743, Rob, KC5RET
