Hello Rick,

Yes, at 100 bauds, no more than 50 bytes...

With the same frames, in APRS for example (on in Unproto), compare the 100 
bauds Packet with Pax/Pax2. I think in Pax APRS will be very much better (I 
hope so!) because Pax is an Olivia clone (so much more robust than Packet).

I think all this is very confused...It needs precise specifications for 
programmers on a precise mode. 
In the principle, why not very high baud rate, but remember that more or less, 
when you double the baud rate, you double the bandwidth (or and if you keep the 
same bandwidth you divise by 2 the euclidian distance between symbols), and, 
so, you increase the minimum S/N of 3 dB...
The way to win dB on the minimum S/N is:
*on the correction coding, which can give a gain according to the coding 
(Convolutional coding and Reed Solomon were the best but now "turbo-codes" 
approach the Shannon limit). 
* to decrease the number of bits by character (about 5 bits/character in PSK63F 
(Nino IZ8BLY) which is the best auto-synchronized coding but 4 bits/character 
would be ideal...).

If you multiply the number of carriers, you decrease drastically the average 
power/peak power ratio.

Note: under Windows only an asynchronosous ARQ mode is possible (as Pax) not a 
synchronous ARQ mode (as Pactor), unfortunatly...

  Hi Patrick,

  Yes, I was afraid of the long frames. They would have to be modified. 
  And when you get done, it seems it would be better to use an existing 
  mode or new mode for an ARQ mode for sound card digital.

  What do you think about all this talk about very high baud rate digital 
  sound card programs?

  73,

Multipsk and test it, for fun. It was not better that the 300 bauds (and 
normally it's easy to be better than the 300 bauds...). It was not very good 
because the frames were 3 times longer that in 300 bauds with so 3 more risk of 
errors. It missed a correction mean.
