1. [RTTY] Volta band conditions and 3830 (score: 1)

There was a very good article in NCJ in the past year or two, by I think a RTTY contester from South Africa, about how he uses his brain to enhance RTTY decoding in contest or adverse DX conditions.

I am guessing the W1AW-on-W1AW/0 QRM was the weeknight code practice or code bulletin on 3581.5kc CW which is a "primo spot" on RTTY band plans. Pretty primo right up until HQ starts start warming up

I think this is an important point. RTTY contesting can be very engaging, watching multiple decoder windows and simultaneously using ears and applying brain and thought to getting correct copy, then

I upgraded N1MM last week and now whenever I switch to RTTY mode I find that MMTTY is coming up with AFC enabled. It also seems to be re-enabling AFC at inopportune moments (maybe whenever I switch f

Thanks Joe, I think you hit exactly on my objection to MMTTY AFC. It somehow gets turned on, then next thing I know, MMTTY's center frequency has wandered way out of the passband and signals that sou

I would say MMTTY is still my main decoder too. Partly this is just the way where MMTTY is the main window and 2Tone is the second window, and partly it is because 2Tone decoding lags just a little b

In a real RTTY contest, the "PLEASE COPY" is surprisingly rare. (It was pretty common on field day, which thank God is not an actual contest!) More common in real RTTY contests, are long preambles of

I think you are dealing with a psycho-acoustic phenomenon related to having a very narrow bandpass filter, where the narrowness is less than 10% of the center frequency.. If a narrow 200Hz filter is

On my MMTTY Setup, the "HAM" button not only sets the tones back to default but it also puts it back to 45 baud. I had developed the habit of hitting "HAM" whenever I wanted to disable or reset AFC.
