Well - I would try it, but Im in Va, and you are in NY. so doubt 2 fm would get that far. Have you tried 6 meter FM digital? Should respond the same way, with better props! Danny Douglas N7DC ex WN5QMX ET2US WA5UKR ET3USA SV0WPP VS6DD N7DC/YV5 G5CTB All 2 years or more (except Novice).

Hi Andy, I suppose this would be confusing to someone not used to FM operation on a multi-mode rig. In all modes, ALC is a function of transmitter output power. In SSB modes we keep our transmitted digital signals clean by running our transceivers below the power level that causes ALC to be

That can be tricky without a deviation monitor but it can be done by comparing your own digital modulation to other known good signals. Comparing your own digital modulation... How do you do that? Please explain. K5WGM --- On Mon, 11/16/09, Gary grwes...@yahoo.com wrote: From: Gary

Well for a week I sat on 145.000 Mhz 2M FM and call CQ and what I did was use my scaner to listen to my self and try to see if I was not over driving the FM, and if it sounded clean I was happy, I had no takers for the hold week and the rig was a Icom 706mk2g. GL Russell NC5O  1- Whoever said

Hi Warren, The cheap and dirty way we did it a decade or two ago to set up packet stations was to hook the speaker output of a handy-talky to a VOM and monitor the audio level coming from another packet station that was working well. You then adjusted the local transmit audio level to produce

I used a Radio Shack scanner and tapped the demodulator (MC3359) output to an scope. Used another synthesized radio to calibrate, first on channel (0 Hz difference...hopefully), then 5 kHz up and 5 kHz down. It gives proper reference to baseline and peak to peak deviation. Then modulate the
