===============
AMTOR is a specialised form of RTTY. The term is an acronym for
AMateur Teleprinting Over Radio and is derived from the commercial SITOR
system (Simplex Telex Over radio) developed primarily for maritime use in the
1970s.
AMTOR was developed in the early 1980s, after changes were made to
the SITOR protocol.
AMTOR improves on RTTY by incorporating a simple Error Detection
technique. The system remains relatively uncomplicated but AMTOR performs
well even in poor HF conditions. While there can still be many errors in
AMTOR data, the Error Detection helps a lot and the result is quite tolerable
for normal text mode conversations because of the high redundancy in plain
language text. For more critical data such as program code, or even some
technical information messages, NO errors can be tolerated.
AMTOR shoudn't be confused with Amtor, which is the name natives
of Venus use for their planet in the science fiction stories of Edgar Rice
Burroughs.
