RTTY Software Information
All these programs have RTTY capability and probably
much more. They may use many decoders such as commercial TNCs like PK232 or sound blaster
cards or home built circuits. They vary greatly in their capabilities and also in price
from Freeware to Shareware to Limited Demo to $$$ Licensed versions. Only programs
available over the Internet are listed. Please don't ask me which program is
best. I have not used many of them and they all have something unique that may be
right for you ... so research the home pages shown for features to do what is important to
your methods, interests, pocketbook, and equipment.
