See in a very recent DX Bulletin the following talking about RTTY and Digital
Modes:
//quote//
DXCC DIGITAL AWARD ---> In accordance with Minute 29 of the July 2011 ARRL
Board of Directors meeting, the DXCC award for RTTY is now changed to
Digital. Digital will now replace RTTY on these certificates effective 25
July 2011. [TNX NC1L]
//end of quote//
Looks like with DXbase having the option to combine RTTY and Digital Modes is
now going to be very nice -- since the RTTY DXCC Award is now known as the
Digital DXCC Award
Info from the ARRL website DXCC "rules" (about the Digital Award) is:
d) Digital: Contacts can include QSOs using any/all digital
modes, in any combination (except CW) since November 15, 1945.
Digital
modes include RTTY, PSK-31, JT65, etc. and any modes that are only
machine-readable, and any that use computer
sound card technology, with
the exception of digital voice, which counts for Phone.
Just FYI
