Hi Tom,
It happens, but you struggled through it. Good for you! The one comment I
wanted to follow up on is I think "Overflow" on MMTTY is too much audio
level from your rig, like if you are using a mic input instead of line level
or just have the fader turned up too high?
The contest was fun, but I only worked a few hours at the last of the
contest. At the start of the contest I was helping another friend try and
get setup for RTTY contests. Elmering seem more important at the time than
getting on. We were fighting our own battles and learn a ton---------again!
