First off, Joe and team thank you for this great software. Also to Don for confirming what I saw here. I can only assume that I have something set incorrectly but it's actually rather simple to go from normal mode to RTTY RU mode.

I have used this version to make contacts with no contest selected so I know it is working properly. I cloned my normal operating configuration and renamed the clone to RTTY RU. When setting up for the ARRL RTTY Roundup I have that ticked and have entered MDC in the Exch: box. I have "FT8 message types" *Always generate* and *Decode only 77-bit messages* ticked. Everything else is the same except I cleared all default frequencies and added only 7.078 and 14.078. As soon as I click on OK the messages are converted to RTTY RU mode. e.g. AA5AU W3DLQ 539 MDC and Tx2.0 RTTY is highlighted in a red box on the main screen. This also works when I enter a callsign in the DX Call box and click "Generate Std Msgs" When I clicked on a CQ message the messages are changed to that caller. When I clicked on a CQ in the Band Activity window, the messages changed, and TX started. However, in the Rx Frequency window my messages are truncated to *AA5AU W3DLQ 5.* This also shows in the last message sent TX box. This occurs if either I send a CQ and the program answers and sends the response message, I click on a CQ message or I click on a message sent to me. In the exchange with AA5AU I clicked on his call to me. I also clicked on a call *CQ RU K9OM EN65.* My response TX to him was* K9OM W3DLQ 55.* In summary, any TX I make is truncated. I think I'm set up correctly or there is something strange in my set up which is Windows 10 with a FLEX-6500. I was running two slices last evening, one for 20M and the other for 40M. Nothing on 20M but many on 40M were decoded. Looked like fun but after I saw what was happening when I transmitted I stopped participating. I didn't want to get flamed for not reading the FTM, not following Joe's directions for setting up the program or other smarta$$ comments. Comments like Don's are appreciated. He made no accusations and merely stated the facts. Dave W3DLQ
