Maybe I have just been a ham so long that I have a different perspective
on the name change but to me there has always been RTTY and everything
else which could be classified as digital. I know that RTTY is a
digital mode, of course. Personally I don't like the name change at
all. Fortunately I got my RTTY DXCC already. Now I am anxious to go
home and see just what is on it. Now wonder what happens when I apply
for endorsements. Will I receive DIGITAL endorsements on my RTTY DXCC??
