If you are wondering what digital mode to choose (scotty 1, scotty 2, martin 1, etc), then it is regular pratice to reply in the mode a station calls or replies to you. The scotty 1/2 and Martin 1/2 are mainly used and differ in time [somewhat less or more then a minute] and thus in quality.

Hello Simon and all, For about SdR, I think it's possible to kept any RS ID transmission in a wide band. Using the hashing technic and improving the Fourier determination, it is needed only several % of the CPU for a 11025 samples/s, so I think it would be OK for a 44 KHz sampling frequency and

No - it's sent in the center frequency and indicates the mode being used. For robustness it could be sent a few times maybe... If you can't decode the RS ID then you'll probably not decode the mode being used anyway. Simon Brown, HB9DRV www.ham-radio-deluxe.com - Original Message - Fr

The RSID is good but is it overly complicated? What if a pilot tone or tones were sent indicating the mode? Maybe 25 msecs of tones with changes at 5 msecs. These tones would also establish the center (or edge) frequency for the mode so auto-tuning might be possible. A pattern might be 1k and 1.
