Tony, Would it be possible to get the same test for the PSK "Robust" modes as in the alpha version of Fldigi?
http://www.w1hkj.com/alpha/fldigi-flarq/ I would really like to have an idea of what the simulator says since we found in practice reasonable NVIS performance (to our surprise). They are basically a BPSK mode with FEC (like PSK63F), but with an interleaver added for time diversity. It would be great to see how the 3 speeds fair (PSK125R, 250R and 500R) since the interleaver size changes with the speed. Also, regarding Q15X25, if you can run Linux this may be another option: http://he.fi/pub/ham/unix/linux/ax25/newqpsk/ Regards, John (VK2ETA) --- In [email protected], Tony <d...@...> wrote: > > > That is realy nice path test.
