The bandwidth of ham communications is less than 4 kHz. It's silly to use more than 8 kHz bandwidth to record it when documentation is the only concern. The 64kB mpeg stream from my internet jazz station is quite satisfying for full bandwidth music, so at least modest data compression is also in order. I wouldn't do more than modest data compression though -- the algorithms use a lot of bits to describe QRN. Think what your cell phone sounds like when someone is in the noisy location! :) 73, Jim K9YC _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: [email protected] You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
