WA3FRP is one of the few remaining old-school RTTY stations on HF using a Teletype Model 28ASR in many non-contest QSOs. I started on RTTY in 1967 and was active on RTTY until 1970. Work and family diverted my attention until 2004 when I once again became active on RTTY.
My TX is a 1959 Collins Radio T-440/FRT-24 - see the cover of May 2008 CQ Magazine for more details.
My RX is a 1962 Collins designed R-390A/URR.
