This weekend I participated in the RTTY sprint contest of the British Amateur Radio Teledata Group (BARTG). As a first timer I had to learn quickly about the integration of N1MM logger and MMTTY. When the contest started I discovered there are no default macro’s in MMTTY. So I had to write time along making QSO’s. It wasn’t the best preparation I ever did 😉
The TS-590S did a great job at this contest! Sometimes I heard the blowers hit in to cool down a bit, but overall I didn’t notice anything weird during the contest. Filtering is great, also with RTTY! Results? 208 Q’s and a claimed score of 56.106 points. Not bad for a RTTY rookie!
Hallo Jim, zeker niet slecht. De eerste keer zat ik ook hopeloos in de knoop met de macro’s. Ik gebruik de macro’s van N1MM, maar dat doe jij ook neem ik aan. Dit weekend geen tijd gehad voor contesten. Denk dat de PACC de eerste contest word dit jaar…73, Bas
Hello,
I came upon your site while doing a Google Search for “BARTG RTTY Macros”. Very nice looking website. Tonight starts BARTG RTTY. Hope to be able to work you in this contest! Congratulations on the nice station and your first time at RTTY in the BARTG Sprint.
73,
Mike
