[LCC] RTTY Roundup AA5AU Single Op LP

[Don AA5AU]

Mark et al, during the contest I actually thought about how I'm able to get this huge score on RTTY but could never do this on CW or SSB.  It was clear how it goes.  You just click on what you see in the screen.  You don't have to decode anything in your head.  If you use a good Super Check Partial and ADIF pre-fill file, then all you have to do is verify what you see on the screen against what is already showing in the entry window and ready to be logged.  RTTY is so much simpler than CW and SSB.  My reduction after log checking for the Roundup is usually in the 2-3% range because you don't have the human error of hearing something in your head then typing it into the log.  Instead, it's a click of the mouse of a callsign that is, most of the time, already highlighted to prove to you that the callsign is correct.

Some of you non-RTTY guys should give a it a try.  I think you find that it's more fun than you think. hi

73, Don AA5AU
