My grandfather was one of the first amateurs, if not the first, to work rtty in finland. I'm hot on the heels of tracking down his old teletype machine and just about to go take my license. One day I'll get that old boat anchor on the air again!
Not a ham myself, just a filthy casual SW listener right now. Just want to say it's great seeing people around my own age have an interest in this stuff! Radio suffers from many misconceptions about it's demographics. Sure, there are many older, very wise and experienced folks in the community, but there are also curious "millennials" like myself who find the medium fascinating! Great channel!
I am a General Class Ham that came back to the hobby attempting to make contact with Puerto Rico via Voice only for emergencies like when PR had hurricane Maria, as I have family members there that I must have a method of sending messages to and receiving messages from through a buddy ham there. Needless to say that I have made expensive equipment purchases in attempt to achieve that goal that I will soon be using as boat anchors unless I can achieve the same goal using RTTY because Voice has been a total failure. The problem I have with your excellent video is the amount of side information not relevant to the RTTY basic issue. I will leave this comment saying that I realize you have full knowledge of the subject and I will be back to see your videos as soon as I can sit for additional time to soak in all that info.

Just fyi, it's pronounced baw-DOUGH (baudot). I believe it's where we get the term baud from, if you're old enough to remember modems who's transmission speed were measured in baud (up to 9600 baud -- it was bits per second above that).
Could you do a video about using Linux exclusively for your shack computer? Would it be better to use an arch based distro to have the most up to date packages for software like fldigi or wsjtx, or do you prefer to add ppa’s to an Ubuntu based distro?
45:58... it's fun ? Having just got my General and my 7300 being delivered tomorrow, I was keen to see what RTTY was all about. I'll pass. Lots of faffing about for garbled messages ? No offence intended to anyone, but I'd rather pick up the mic and talk to someone than try to decipher the Enigma Code.

It’s the weekend, Working 7day operation. I haven’t had weekends off in 35 years so I’m envious. Let him have his beer 🍺!! And with our short staffing at work I haven’t had a day off since aug 7 so I’m buying a lot of Chamaeleon antennas and Icom equipment for future POTA adventures.
Wow thank you sir love your videos, and have starting messing around with radios, my wife thinks it’s crazy and turned me onto this ? The FCC’s ham radio license requirements are unconstitutional. It’s time to fight back. | Pacific Legal Foundation , please check it out 👍 thank you my fellow American, any thoughts would be great
As the public learns more about ham radio, they’re likely to appreciate amateur radio’s importance as a form of emergency communication and as an alternative communication infrastructure. That could be good news if it encourages more interest in amateur radio. Potential hams will also quickly learn that in order to set up an amateur radio “station,” however, they are required to have a license from the Federal Communications Commission (FCC). Since 1912, a federal license has been required to operate a ham radio legally-a seemingly reasonable mandate since operators make use of public airwaves, which are under FCC regulation. People eagerly joining up for the hobby may not realize that FCC licensure rules require them to give up an important constitutional safeguard of their privacy. In order to receive a ham radio license from the FCC, would-be operators are forced to give up their Fourth Amendment right to be free from unreasonable warrantless searches.
@@wakeupamericaandresist2413 I'm with you on this. Rights don't change because technology advances. There is no constitutional authority on which the FCC can stand. Same with the BATFE. The only constitutional thing they can do is dissolve. Go ahead and pay the fee if you like peaceful slavery. As for me, I prefer dangerous freedom.
I was a teletype repairman in the US Navy, as a Radioman. Five level coding started my 40+ programming/networking/IT career. Great times!
"Bravo Zulu" to a fellow RM...

Thank you. Go check out my live stream from a few weeks back. All swling. 👍
Don't forget about us Gen Z!
Why not let the people hear what RTTY sounds like? It has a very distinctive sound as well as look.

Hey l like your videos , l just order my arrl book so l can start studying for my ham license !!!📡
Great video! Sorry I missed it live, had to work. It's definitely inspired me to give RTTY a try. 73!

Hey Josh,,
Just an FYI FLDIGI also does automatic repeat as well. It’s actually a lot more powerful than DM780 with the macro Programming ability.
I have an Art Bell QSL card!
Damn!
Thanks for doing what you do sharing more from the work or HAM radio

What video has the GRid Down guy that Josh has been talking about in the podcast?
What about hellscriber it’s an mode from the 1920”s, check out that mode!
Well, there is no regulator for radio here in Myanmar but they do charge if they want.
I changed to a vanity call sign, so how to change in Ham Radio Deluxe to a new call? Thanks.

I'm bummed I missed it live.
🤜🏻👍🤛🏻♡♡♡
Those headphones!! LoL♡
I randomly decided to listen back to some of the old podcasts. Out of all of them I picked cat cups.
Can someone explain the Appliance Operator shirt joke? I am new to ham radio and don't understand.
New t-shirt - @58:05 "I make the RTTY happen".
#TeamReplay for the win
I was just thinking of doing this with an apple //e
Used RTTY with my Collins S-Line back in early 1960's
Baudot is pronounced "baw-dough". Named after the inventor who was French.
You need to be drinking a heavy IPA from Portland if you are going hipster, lol
hay guy's KG6YTG and standing by.
Had to apply for a special RTTY Mode license back in the seventies in Holland..
Gotta get me some of that BOW-DOT code...........
I wish the screen was at a lower resolution so I could watch on my phone
It’s in 1080. Then the phone over.
Need a Cat Control Tshirt with a cat operating a radio
That is good too.
The oldest digi mode is CW..
wrong: hellschreiber and feldhell is as old, if not more, than RTTY
Dont use reverse use the right sideband it should be USB
lol the title cracks me up because secretly I feel this way.

It must be fun for some as it’s still in use. I personally enjoy it.

I wish you wouldn’t use the phrase “digital mode”. It’s all analog.
Will Moran, seriously dude don't drink and watch live streams....

Much respect, but my understanding is that you give up your 4th amendment right to get licensed in ham radio chat?
No. Not really.

Baudot is a french word so it is pronounced Bau doe.
"baw-DOE"
Way too much self promotion off topic dialogue.
Feel free to start making your own show the way you like it 👍
