ARRL RTTY Roundup Contest

[@Greywolf3]

Randy, you've got the best ham videos on KZbin! I like your laid-back style and the detail you show, even my non-ham friends enjoy watching your shows! George W0XS

[@tommybewick]

Lots of fun to watch and also fun to have mmtty open and receive the signal from the video audio. I hope to try one of these contests once I get on the air in a month or so. I second the motion for rtty beginner videos since this is new to me too. Thanks for all the great ones you have posted, I am slowly working through them all. 73 Tom N2BEW

Just those two. Writelog is the main program and it used the MMTTY plugin for the RTTY decoding and encoding. Randy

[@K7AGE]

Glad to hear that I have lit your radio spark. MMTTY will take a bit to get it set. There is a good MMTTY yahoo group. Randy

[@K7AGE]

Sounds like a good idea. I'll put it on my list. I have no idea when I'll get to it. Randy

[@K7AGE]

If you have MMTTY on your computer, you can change the audio input from Line to Mix (or try other sound card settings) and you can copy some of the RTTY signals when I am not talking. Randy

[@K7AGE]

@2000conan Writelog and MMTTY engine works great. Many of the guys now use N1MM, as it is free.

great to see how a radio station, also on HF antennas in order to modulate from 160 meters to 10 meters and 6 meters. I have recently entered this wonderful world of radio, but I have little ability to pay but really want to do. I wish I could make the contest with America and around the world chgiedo information to you that you are a pilot of the frequencies that make antenna to make a one-off fee and you are in attendance.

I don't know what RTTY services there might be outside of ham bands for weather or news. You may have to google around to find out what signals are available. Randy

[@Keith_KC8TCQ]

Great Video. I've only recently started to experiment with digital modes including working PSK this last Field Day. If all goes according to plan I will be working RTTY some this weekend for the CQ World Wide RTTY contest. 73 de Keith KC8TCQ

@ilovenbcnews Hi, I bet that when you are in RTTY mode, the radio expects you to use the FSK input. This requires a mar/space logic signal from the computer to the radio. This is not an audio signal. Change the radio to the same mode that you use for PSK, and it will probably work.

[@K7AGE]

Thanks, now that the FCC is about to drop the morse code, you should be able to get your license! Randy

[@K7AGE]

Yes, that is Henry in the background humming out the watts. Henry is no longer with me. He has been replaced by an AL-82.

[@Sparky73dx]

Hi Randy! Looks good. Keep continue. Very interesting. Also will be interesting to see your QTH around (property, village, ppl). 73 Andrew RW3AH

[@K7AGE]

@Wa3ypx You may find some of the guys using the machines for general QSOs. Machines are way to slow to use for contests.

[@thedashingstache5993]

Holy smokes! 10 years ago.

[@JCHaywire]

I don't think there is an issue, and my quesion has been answered. Thanks. 73

[@K7AGE]

@ilovenbcnews I use The RTTY mode using FSK keying.

[@JCHaywire]

You think that's interesting, try taking a slow boat and working CW. I really enjoy it.

[@tf2msn-odinnthor268]

Nice video Randy 73

[@petchharrison]

well that some hum you got there,have you an amp and your own power station .. jeff

[@SpringDivers]

This stuff is so cool. I always wanted to get into HAM radio. I'm 57 and still might. Any good sources for an engineering type wanting to start in the hobby? Rtty seems pretty interesting.

[@Wa3ypx]

@K7AGE Ahhh QSL. Boy those machines where impressive

[@K7AGE]

My first video is a tour of the shack and antennas. Poke around in my list of videos to find it.

[@JCHaywire]

What are the regulations about re-transmitting a QSO on KZbin? I really enjoy seeing you QRV, but I wonder what the ramifications of this are.

[@Wa3ypx]

Anybody still using the old Kleinschmidt machines? Or am I showing my age!

[@JCHaywire]

Do you run the Rigblaster Pro? I noticed something there on your rig. Is this all that is needed to work HF packet? Is there any reason to get a TNC like a Kantronics when I could get the Rigblaster?

[@carguytoyota]

i hope entered as multi op not single operater as no spotting is allowed ,,,,

[@CaTuber]

Why should there be any? There is no expectation of privacy on the ham bands and no issue making recordings, etc. It isn't being "re-transmitted" in any FCC sense, so... what could be the issue?

[@m3msu]

Don't think there are any. M3MSU

[@kc9mav]

That hum when you transmit is that your amp?

[@OE5HTLTina]

Hello may I ask how that is the program you use 73 from Austria
