■ Operating RTTY (FSK)
A DSP-based high-quality Baudot RTTY encoder/de-
coder is built-in to the IC-7800. When connecting a PC
keyboard (p. 2-6), RTTY operation can be performed
without an external RTTY terminal, TNC or PC.
If you would rather use your RTTY terminal or TNC,
consult the manual that comes with the RTTY termi-
nal or TNC.
