I'm absolutely clueless when it comes to RTTY (call me a RTTY-iot :-).
When doing RTTY the old fashioned way (with a teletype machine) how fast
are chars sent?  I'm assuming they are sent at the operator's typing
speed.  With a computer, are RTTY messages buffered and sent in a burst
when the OP hits send or are they sent 1 char at a time?

If a person generates RTTY from the K3's keyer at 20 wpm is the RTTY
going to look odd to the receiver because of excessive inter-char gaps
or are those gaps rather common since many of us type slower than 60
wpm?

The 'baud rate' is always that user for RTTY( 45.45 bauds), BUT the RATE
at which the characters are actually SENT depends upon how fast you can
send them to the K3 using the internal keyer...
