I am glad that those "RTTY 160 meters" debates are back again on the table!

Sure 160 RTTY CQ WW Contest would be a nice try. Plus an addition of 160
meters to CQ WW and CQ WW DX RTTY Contests - is my dream, hi. I believe that
RTTY 160 is prohibited in ALL RTTY Contets.

I used to be QRV on 1808 last couple of winters and with 100 watts and small
lousy Inverted L was able to print 34 US States.

Slightly off topick - 160 meters RTTY is not presented in LoTW at all. I
spoke to ARRL reps in Dayton last two years about this matter - no changes
so far... Ift oyu check WAS Lotw - every band has 3 modes - RTTY, CW and SSB
except 160 meters, where only CW and SSB are presented.
