Hello Ken,   These modes (PAX/PAX2) have a protocol close to AX25 (between AX25 and Pactor 1), with a modulation close to Olivia and closer to Contestia.   The modulation is described on my help (RX/TX modes selection and their descriptions) and the protocol (in french) is downloadble from my site (http://f6cte.free.fr).   >As in can they be used within the packet radio network? It's different from Packet because it is not compatible and because I have limited the number of repeaters to 2 (as I think it is sufficient as the lowest S/N is – 10 dB for PAX and – 7 dB for PAX2). The use of repeaters decreases drastically the throughput but it is sufficient to send APRS position or to send a message to a Pax responder (if any).   73 Patrick             ----- Original Message ----- From: Ken To: digitalradio@yahoogroups.com Sent: Friday, October 13, 2006 5:58 AM Subject: [digitalradio] Re: Kantronics, Kam XL Are these modes X25 compatable? As in can they be used within the packet radio network? This is something we are currently looking for to help increase and replace the 300 Baud HF standard that has been used for far too long now within the packet networks. At present we are looking at Q15X25, but I was told that PAX2 might have a better throughput in poor signal conditions.
