I don't know how hard it would be to pull this part of the software
out and run it on its own AND to control a transmitter with it.
Remember, the pmbo is probably seeing a CTS indication from the pactor
modem. You would have to use another receiver and pc running scamp
and somehow get the pmbo
No, it's actually trivial:
1. The PMBO's tranceiver's audio output is currently connected to the
Pactor Modem's audio input; add a connection to the soundcard input
(this might require adding a soundcard if one isn't already present
in the PC that hosts the PMBO server software)
2. The SCAMP
There were some who were not that happy about the development attempt of
SCAMP since they had such a large investment in their modems. But the
owners wanted to come up with an alternative to the SCS modem.
SCAMP was put on hold because the programmer did not have time to
continue further
I really don't know anything about the pmbo software. What you
describe may be trivial from a system analysis standpoint but actually
coding it may not be so easy. What you're describing is running a
second process (SBD) and making the pmbo software communicate with
that process. That may or
The PMBO server software is an an application, not an operating
system running on bare hardware. Assuming the PC hosting this
software runs Windows, Linux, or Unix, then hosting the SCAMP Busy
Detector (SBD) as an independent process would definitely be trivial.

The process itself may be trivial, but communication between it and
the pmbo application, may or may not be trivial. I don't even know if
the SBD part of scamp was designed as a unique process that could be
run independently or if it had inter-process communications designed
into it. It may very
I have been lobbying the WinLink team to do this for years, without
success. You are more than welcome to try, Jose.

Ask yourself why scamp died. Do you really think the winlink users
who have spent a thousand dollars or more on pactor modems are going
to relish throwing that investment away because the winlink admin's
have decided to go to a soundcard mode?

I agree with your point, Jim. However, it doesn't explain the failure
of the WinLink organization to incorporate the SCAMP busy detector in
each of their PMBOs. This would have no impact on WinLink users, and
minimal $ impact on PMBO operators.
