RTTY?
 
Hi. Is there any way that someone could experiment w/ RTTY w/o a HAM
license? Perhaps w/ a MUR?

To answer the why question, just because I'm curious. Thanks.

El Cheapo CB handi talkies.
Low power version under Part 15 rules.
Will work fine for experimenting over a couple hundred feet.

Thanks for the kind follow up. I thought the FCC didn't allow any digital
transmissions on the citizens band (CB) frequences? Maybe it changed?

How would one go about setting up communication, say from his laptop (in
the field) to a desktop in a house? The ranges would be very short.

Thanks.

Why not just use wifi?

MURS frequencies are limited to two watts power out, no matter if
you're base or mobile.

To answer the why question, just because I'm curious. Thanks.


I guess the answer would be along the lines of "I guess you could,
but why bother?"

Getting an amateur license at least gives you some of the
electronics background you'll need to enjoy such experimentation a lot
more than you might otherwise.

Happy hunting.

Thanks again. For actual use I will be likely using wifi, though I will have
to overcome some distance issues at certain points.

I just like to tinker. RTTY is something I haven't ever tried, so was just
curious. Thanks.
