Dear fellow digitalradio members, You are invited to join the discussion now going on HFLINK Group... with your comments, questions, feedback, genius, intuition, and insight! Click here: http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/hflink/
We are discussing what the HFLINK group's recommendation comments to ARRL should be, for "development of an open-source (non-proprietary) data communications protocol suitable for use by radio amateurs over high-frequency (HF) fading paths". For background on this, please see: http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/hflink/message/3556 What modes and formats are needed for future expansion? How do OFDM, PSK, MFSK, and other modes fit? Is it necessary to re-invent the HF data wheel? Is it desirable to invent a completely new ham-only standard digital data protocol from the ground up? Can we leverage a group of existing HF standards with some new stuff, and combine these into an a working protocol? What are the different levels of protocol needed? How can existing International, MIL, FED, or STANAG standards be applied to ham radio for HF-IP and data communications? Your comments are invited on HFLINK: ALE - Automatic Link Establishment, High Speed and Robust HF Digital Communications, and HF Propagation http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/hflink/join 73---Bonnie Crystal KQ6XA HFLINK Founder ========================================================== Outline for Proposed HFLINK Comment to ARRL: Development of a Data Communication Protocol for use by Radio Amateurs Over HF Fading Paths More info click here: http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/hflink/message/3557 ,
