After reading several great reports about 2Tone, I couldn't wait to try it.
Some initial thoughts regarding 2Tone from my QTH which is located on the
East Coast of Florida, 2 miles off the Atlantic:
1) It's terrific to have the 2Tone decoder as an additional RTTY decoder
for N1MM Logger.
2) In listening to a dozen or more RTTY signals from Europe, 2Tone did not
decode as accurately as MMTTY at my QTH, whether the signal was strong or
weak, MMTTY decoded more accurately. Most of the signals had flutter on
them and even though flutter was selected on 2Tone, MMTTY still decoded better.
3) I really miss not having the X-Y scope on 2Tone. Perhaps there's a way
to turn X-Y on?
4) On my K3, when 2Tone is keyed, I hear a "clicking" sound on my monitor
before the tones are transmitted. The "click" is annoying and I don't hear
that "click" when using MMTTY.
I realize 2Tone is new, I'm hoping that ongoing improvements will be made
to it.
For those of you who have 2Tone decoding better then MMTTY, I am happy for
you!
