Hi Bill,

I've been using MMTTY free Windows  software for the past 2 years to run 
RTTY.   As Kevin said, JFW  speaks everything including garbage characters, 
so you have to use the filter between your ears  to get the junk out.  In my 
setup JAWS  spells out each  letter, but since I only work RTTY contests, 
it's perfect having the callsign spelled out.   Have several hundred RTTY 
QSO's and around 100 countries in the log with this setup.

73, Steve KW3A
