#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).

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!

I heard 2/16 stations on the Wayne County (MI) Repeater Crawl tonight. As expected #N8DUY came in S5/9++ and I could hear #W8FSA . The rest, not so much. Keith #KD8ZSK NCS.
On the plus side my entire 50W station now fits in my backpack. On the minus side, I need to get some more/better 2m portable antenna options to make it actually useful.
The #N8DUY repeater was reachable full quieting from 50+ miles away (west side of Ann Arbor MI to Essex Ontario). Thanks to Sean #VA3SGM for that report.
