#RTTY Roundtable de #K8WXQ on the 146.92 #W8FSA repeater Ypsilanti MI (St Joes tower) #EN82

via email via ARROW #W8RP

To All
We will have the Monday 170Hz Shift 60WPM RTTY Roundtable at 7PM Local Time on the 146.92MHz Repeater.
We had 3 Stations on last week.
I will call CQ at 7 PM and if nothing heard, I will just go into RX Mode.
Hope to see some Stations check in.
73's Al K8WXQ

Looking forward to what will be a regular #RTTY net on the #W8FSA 146.92 repeater in Ypsilanti (St Joes). Al #K8WXQ is net control. The first scheduled net was yesterday 2024-03-04, the next one is next Monday 2024-03-11 at 700p Eastern.

This starts 60 minutes before the #ARROW net on #W8RP 146.96 Monday nights 800p.

When I did this last I used #DroidRTTY to encode/decode, will be looking for RTTY software that can run on my MacBook Air (either MacOS or iOS worth a try).

Sent CQ CQ CQ DE W8EMV W8EMV W8EMV PSE K and my signal was decoded OK by two stations! My RTTY correspondents first reported that I had mark and space reversed so I hit the toggle setting in my DroidRTTY to swap those in my sending and after that all was well.

Next challenge, the cell phone is down to 3% battery, did find a cable to plug it in so hopefully I can get charged up for another try.

Still figuring out #DroidRTTY beyond sending macros.

Tnx to #K8WXQ for being a #RTTY Elmer!

I received CQ CQ CQ DE K8WXQ ON THE 14692 REPEATER RYRYRYRYRY via #RTTY decoded with #DroidRTTY acoustic coupling from the Android phone to my Kenwood TH22-AT HT.

Tried to transmit to the #W8FSA repeater from home, but my HT doesn't have enough power from the comfy chair to get in. Next step will be the shack in the attic with the same HT.

Looking forward to monitoring a scheduled #RTTY QSO. #W8FSA 146.92 PL100 repeater in Ypsilanti MI (St. Joes), should be reachable from Ann Arbor and the western Detroit suburbs. Planned time is 400p local on 2023-12-26, 2100 UTC.

Al #K8WXQ is leading the way, and I'm hoping to decode ("read the mail") with #OpenWebRXPlus . I'll try to grab a recording of at least part of it.

Thanks to #W8FSA for the use of this repeater for digital modes!
