Hello Geoff,

I found in my old papers quite a pile of RTTY print-outs from 1975.
But only very few hints on decoding.

A sample from orbit no. 1631 of march 25, 1975 looks like this:

-10025-11679-12635-13014-14624-15000-16422-17306-18000-19000

         ^^^   ^^^   ^^^   ^^^         ^^^   ^^^   ^^^   ^^^  solar panels

The proper block obviously starts with the two clock/status lines. 

	Have fun!
