RTTY with FT-710

Basic question from someone who has not used RTTY since the surplus terminal days in early 70s.

Do I need special hardware, Terminal or interface, to transmit and receive RTTY with the FT-710?  Or is there some software similar to WSJT that will let me do it with the radio and software?

Working FT-8 with FT-710 and WSJT-X was so easy.  Never tried FT-8 before but got WAS confirmed and 60 countries confirmed in four weeks.

 

Download FLDIGI, 

there are a lot of modes and it will work as per wsjtx - but not at the same time (they'll fight over the CAT control).

There are others - I have just stopped doing ARRL RU RTTY contest and used FLDIGI's engine linked up to N1MM+ logger. They work well together.

 I have been using MMTTY with my FTDX10 & FTdx101mp with great results, I have just purchased the 710 to do a comparrison and once it arrives RTTY will be one of the first modes I try.    I will report back with an update once the rig arrives
