  1. I've been trying forever, but today I finally manged to decode RTTY! I am *absurdly* giddy over this!

    Reminder

    I'm proposing a try out net.
    (If times/band don't work for you we can try again next week)

    Sunday 29th 0920Z (1020 BST) check in for 0930Z (1030 BST) start.7070.70 MHz.

    I'll call
    "CQ CQ CQ DE G8GDS
    CHECK IN FOR RTTY NET K"
    On 30s loop

  4. Is anyone interested in an occasional #rtty get together?

  5. Are there really no reverse beacon network spots #RBN for #RTTY for last 10 days, or am I doing something wrong?

    RTTY question:
    I've tried RTTY with Fldigi and made a few contacts but.....
    Do •you• use 'canned' responses or do you type the QSO?
    Which do you feel is the more common approach to RTTY QSOs?

  8. Encouraged by the discussions on a particular "comms" Discord channel I'm going to embark on experimenting receiving and decoding #RTTY (radio teletype) with my Shortwave radio, a RTTY decoder and a composite monitor.

    The RTTY unit is from FleaBay and got it reduced from £75 to £60 which is remarkable I think. This particular model is of 1981 vintage.

  15. A nice blend of different #hamradio flavors tonight. #POTA via #FT8. Contest via #RTTY. And a bit lighthouse via #ssb.
    2 #ATNO tonight with Colombia and Antarctica. I finally managed to work Neumayer III station on #20m. :blobparty:

  16. @grajohnt Based on some of the keys (KN, AR, AS) my first guess is that it came from a teletype. Heathkit had something similar but not identical: deskthority.net/viewtopic.php?

    Maybe ask #hamr #hamradio #amateur_radio #rtty

  18. How's it going with #cqcontest in #rtty you ask? Even if you don't ask, I gonna tell anyway.
    Usually I do fast snappy CW contesting. RTTY is soooo slloooowww.
    Usually I have a beefy kW amp running. I decided to go barefoot, rig at 90W out. Moohahaaa...
    Usually the yagi is between 15m and 21m AGL. I left the tower down so the tribander sits only 8m high.
    'nuff said?
    And I worked 11 Dutch(wo)men in the #pacc contest on 28MHz.
    Support the ham radio contest scene!

  19. My #ADK #POTA trip to Limekiln Lake was a success.

    180+ QSOs & 3 activations - all on solar power in a forest with too much shade AND most of my time on the #lateshift.

    I managed to work stations on 10, 20, 40, and 80 meters. I was successful on FT4 , FT8, and SSB. While I tried #RTTY, I never got a call back. I'll keep trying, however.

    All this was done with a #XieguG90 and an 80m #EFHW up 15-20ft.

  20. Its a gloomy Sunday morning edition of "A Cup of Joe Patio" #AmateurRadio #HamRadio. Today's version is #RTTY contest with #HRD #HamRadioDeluxe #DM780 and #ft891

  21. Der Funkhändler #WiMo hat eine schöne Übersicht zum Thema #Funkfernschreiben erstellt:
    wimo.com/de/rtty-digimodes

    Kommerzielle Seite, aber gut gemacht mit Bildern historischer Technik, Erklärung der Funktionsweise von #RTTY (damals und heute) und ein paar Tipps für eigene erste Schritte, z.B. zum Empfang der Wettertelegramme vom DWD.

  23. Taking a page from the #SSTV playbook about how images do not have to be large or exact when sent over thin mediums, I have made these scripts to send 26-shades-of-gray #grayscale images over text-only mediums. Meshtastic, sms, rtty, or even morse code could be used to send an image... You could go hardcore and speak the image in #NATOPhonetics... if you wanted

  24. Do you think we've had enough closed, irreproducible, proprietary digital modes contaminating the #hamradio hobby (#ROS, #VARA, #DMR, #YSF, #DSTAR, etc.)? Well, now we've got #LORA for #APRS.

    No: ham radio should be based on open, free standards. There are plenty of free, open, well documented digital modes (#FT8, #JS9, #WSPR, #M17, #PSK, #Olivia, #RTTY) in addition to the oldest-ever digital mode (#CW). Please support ways of operation everyone can inspect, modify, or build a radio around.

  25. I have a #digital related question for people of the #hamradio community.

    Does anyone know of a #transceiver that does good 5W on digital modes like #FT8 #PSK #JS8 #RTTY etc. I just want to only run digital modes with it. I been looking at #uBITX V6 and #QDX etc but interested peoples input. One the reasons I looking into this is cause my station runs off of solar and battery and my current radios draw 5-6A at 5W on FT4/8 etc

  27. @hamchallenge I must have heard the RTTY transmission a million times, often using it as an indicator for how long the skip is on 30m. Today I finally decoded it for the first time with fldigi, with the settings described by @ian in his blog (450Hz shift, 50 bd, 5N1). I was not patient enough to wait for an actual weather report, though. #HC20S #rtty #fldigi

  32. 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!

  33. The #hfbands feel empty without dozens of Italian SES stations.
    It was fun, I even made quite a few #rtty contacts in the chase...
    I _NEVER_ get enough of #hamradio ! ! !

  36. I've been operating as #W1AW/2 that last couple of days using #SSB (40M, 20M, 10M)

    At 2:00 - 4:00 UTC, I'll be operating again but using #RTTY somewhere between 7.080 MHz and 7.100 MHz (probably 7.085 or so).

    Conditions have improved significantly over the last couple of hours so if you want to give a shout or try RTTY, you know where I'll be.

  37. Pro-tip: keep RF out of your computer keyboard to aid RTTY operation.

    I may have slid a ferrite rod inside the cable's coiled springy wire. 😉

  39. #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.

  40. 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).
