Some redundant opinions here ... If you are a Windows user, HRD and DM780 are simply twelve kinds of wonderful. Too many features? Don't use the ones you don't need. Simon designed the interface is so that features you do not use are not in your face. I had HRD/DM780 up and running in 30

This sounds fairly complex. Why not just use a netbook? Volume-wise it's about the same if not better after all the cables and terminals are considered and if you have enough power to run digital (high duty cycle) on the radio you have enough for the netbook. --- In

That's a nice wee setup you have there, I'd forgot about these little net books. Again as you say it's the sort of thing you could have in a disaster area or expedition, even a 703 or 706 with gel cells in a small flight case with perhaps even solar panels on the outside to trickle charge the

Well of course you could if you have enough extra power to keep it charged. Then you could also run the Airmail software too. My notebook charges at 20v at 3.2A which probably means it is drawing 100W continuously while charging. I imagine a netbook charger is about the same. When I use the

It is available in MixW 2.19 and I believe HRD. I think the MixW help files have a good explanation. HRD would allow you to set an RS ID tone in your CQ transmissions so that others would know it is MT 63 that you are sending - very handy for a relatively obscure mode like MT 63. Suggest a

I'm interested in having this clarified. 97.3(c)(2) says something about 500 Hz bandwidth below 30 MHz. That is the only thing I specifically see about bandwidth for data modes. I kinda read that as saying we here in the US are limited to 500 Hz bandwidth. Does anyone have an official

Look at Part 97.221. This 500 hertz va 1600 hertz bandwidth thing is an automatic control (unattended - 500 hertz) or attended 1600 question. I think you must be thinking about the 300 baud limit and blurring the two together. And no, I have no other FCC guidance on the matter. Rick - KH2DF

Yep, I was aware of the 97.221 limit of 500 Hz for automatic operation. Also, I was aware of 97.305 that specifies 300 baud below 28 MHz. 1200 baud appears to be OK for 10 meters. Of course, that is the paragraph that has the confusing thing about 1000 HZ RTTY shift specification. By that I
