[net.ham-radio] RTTY interface, and Packet information wanted.

hageman@asgb.UUCP (12/21/84)

I am very new to Ham radio and still working on geting my Novice
license togeather ( I'm getting pretty close.)  My profession is
Electronics Engineering so the theory wont be the problem.  I am
looking for information on the various RTTY interfaces to RS-232
computer ports.  My main interest is up grading to technition as
soon a possible and get into packet ratio.  So if any of you can
provide me with information on  which RTTY interface is the best
for the money it would be much  apreciated.

Also,  the ARRL has just approved the packet  switching  protocol 
x.25 addaptation  to ham - radio.  I also program in assembly and
C  and  would be  very interested in developing a program similar 
to  modem7,  mex and  mdm112  for CPM systems which would utilize 
this protocol for ham.  If anyone can furnish me with information 
concerning   this protocol,  or  can  recommend  any    source of 
information for this protocol (I  already  have ordered  the  new 
ARRL book on the subject), or source I will share my results.

Thank you,

I just got my Heathkit catalog and described within is such a device.

Does anybody out there have any experience with it, and to receive news
service broadcasts, does it require the optional filter elements?
