appearance but have taken little interest since. I no longer have the

It seems to me that the developer of the mode may have cooked his own
goose: he declared it to be a spread-spectrum mode, and spread-spectrum
is mot legal on HF in the USA.

Hi Alan,
Why did you wait so long with contributing here?
Please explain.
Hello Rein,
I've posted on this subject several times in the past with ITU IEEE

It does seem to get lost in the noise at times.
It does not help at all that the ROS

This was resolved back in the early packet days and the WA4DSY 56k modems.
This is true of many of the other modes/modems. And was also ruled upon
by the FCC due to challenges by the anti-Pactor crowd.
