Re: [digitalradio] Contestia "Sprint " December 6/7 !

I was thinking that if you want to make this test fly, you may want to specify a bandwidth and number of tones. I think a band(s) should be specified as well, but that's just me.

Andy,
 
I don't think Contestia will replace RTTY. To get the rate up you have to go to a higher bandwidth. 8 tone at 250 Hz is about as close as you can get to RTTY speed without going to a higher bandwidth and that will not be good for contesting. Just my thoughts.

 Pawel's description of Contestia says   " I hope this mode can be a replacement for RTTY in contests" .OK, so let's test it under contest conditions.  How about a mini -sprint or Contestia Two-Legged Rush.  I propose that we try a 30 
minutes sprint using Contestia on  UTC December 6,  at 0100 UTC and again at 1300 UTC on December 7th.  Any bands, except WARC bands.  Just a total time of 1 hour,  in two 30 minute segments,  that will 
provide differing propagation conditions.  Since we want to simulate contest conditions, does anyone want to propose a simple scoring system?    Scores/logs published here.Andy K3UK
