It is true that the CQ WPX RTTY SOHP world record is held by someone using
Win-Test (UA5C operating EF8M).

I was referring to the Logger Usage Statistics for the 2012 CQ WW WPX
Contest.  Less than 200 logs out of the 3550 logs received used Win-Test in
that contest (5.6%).  More people used N1MM (51%), MixW (14%), and
Writelog(8%).  They have more development focus on RTTY operating than
Win-Test.

Do you think if Win-Test worked better with 2-Tone, it would be any more
popular?  Is 2Tone that much better than MMTTY?  I was disappointed that
2Tone was intended for AFSK rather than FSK, and that it didn't have any
PTT support.
