I'm quite surprised by this response of yours, as it is not exactly aligned with the friendly style of the list - I know that to make things clear is more difficult than slamming doors, but I like it more.
Maybe I am referring to the BELL 202 erroneously, because I am actually trying to implement a modem for 1200 AFSK to use on AX25 on ham vhf band - I am not sure about it is BELL202, but I am sure it is encoded the way I said, as I have read this on a number of papers, including those from TAPR/ARRL Digital Communication Conferences, particularly: PIC-et Radio: How to Send AX.25 UI Frames Using Inexpensive PIC Microprocessors by John Hansen, W2FS State University of New York 49 Maple Avenue ... 3. Packet radio uses a modulation scheme called NRZI (Non-Return to Zero, Inverted). This means that the ones and zeros are not represented by high and low states (or tones). Rather, a zero is represented by a change in tone (if it was high, it goes low, if it was low, it goes high) while a one is represented by no change in tone. Together with bit-stuffing, this ensures that there will be a tone change at least every five bits, if not more often (except for flags). This helps the transmit and receive timing stay in sync.i maybe the correct name for this mod scheme is NRZI, and I wrongly called it BELL202 as I used an MX614 in one of my implementations, that is frequently reported as being BELL202 modem. useless to say, I do not consider anyone an idiot - neither in the list, nor in the whole world - that would be the very opposite of the HAM spirit you should know very well. yours truly Matteo iz2eeq > Matteo: > > Normally I do not play the game this way but let me suggest that you do > the following thing so we can get beyond this to give people the correct > information. > > Open up Google.
