Re: [digitalradio] Pactor III licensing...

Sorry,
Can't do anything with a KAM or PK-232 (any version).  Pactor II and III are 
proprietary modes.
Pactor II and Pactor III are only available on the SCS line of  modems 
Cheapest one is the PTC-IIex about $900... Check this web site for their
US distributor

http://www.farallon.us/webstore/

The PTC-IIex with only Pactor II is $859, with the Pactor III license it's 
$998.

Do you need need all that speed?  All Pactor connects start out in Pactor I, 
and only shift if the higher configuration is available at both ends.
What are you going to use it for?   Winlink 2000?

  I have a KAM XL and a fully tricked out PK232.

  can either of them be licensed for Pactor III?

  what is the cost of upgrading to II and to III?

  thanks

negative, a friend of mine just bought one of the SCS modems for half 
price and I was wondering whether it was possible to upgrade one of my 
TNCs.  but, as I understand it, they will do Pactor I and that is the 
standard de rigeur today.

Just be careful, the earliest SCS modems didn't have Pactor II or III either.
