Hi Steve,

To go back to ten meters a minute, I got up there this afternoon after
reading your message.  I worked two stations through that repeater on 29.660
in Dallas/Fort Worth and had a ball.  They were my first actual repeater
contacts on ten meters.  One was a mobile in Vermont and the other was a guy
in Forth Worth on the 440 side talking to me on ten.  Worked some DX on SSB
as well and all in all, had a great time.  Thanks for the tip.

Take care and very 73.

Howard,

For RTTY I use the free MMTTY software:

As you would expect, tuning in the signal, and getting your screen 
reader to spit out something understandable is the hardest part.   Do a 
simple audio connection from radio to pc sound card and play around. 
Once you get the rx side working, than you can decide on how you want to tx.

With JAWS, I found that putting a frame around the rx window and 
setting it up to read incoming text works pretty well.   Otherwise use 
insert-s to "all" to read incoming text.

Good luck, Steve KW3A
