Comments:
First RTTY contest using Writelog interfaced w/ MMTTY and my new DigiKeyer II.
wouldn't you know it, I lost some valuable time when I ended up with RF getting
into the DKII on 40 meters. I'd be running along just fine when all of a sudden
I was locked in the transmit mode and Writelog would freeze up. Took a while to
find. Luckily, it was only on 40 and I did have some ferrites handy. I just
put them on everything I could think of and it worked. I'll go for the more
elegant solution next week. I haven't been one to run a freq too much mostly
because I'm still learning some of the techniques. I tried it a couple times
when the band was crowded - amazing, I had rates over 120/hr several times on
40 and 20. They didn't last that long but I thirst for more.
Rig - FTDX-9000D, Mosley Pro-57B for 40-10 and two 80 meter dipoles (somewhat
crossed).
