Re: [digitalradio] Pactor scanning ?

I should pop up on 7,103.7 (CF) from time to time.

While awaiting the next stage of WINMOR beta testing, I thought I
would listen a little to some Pactor mail stations.  I have a list of
stations and their frequencies, but the software I have does not
automatically scan known mailbox frequencies.  I could program the
radio to do that , but wondered if anyone else has a pactor mailbox
scanning software ?

stations worked pop up on the screen.

[digitalradio] FLdigi/Skype/Microham Quirk ?

2009-03-02 Thread Andrew O'Brien
Interesting.

I was helping a friend troubleshoot an issue with FL-Digi and his
Digikeyer.  It had previously worked OK, them stopped PTT and no
waterfall display of anything.  We used Skype to talk while we tried
to solve the problem.  The ODD thing is that while talking him through
things, my FL-Digi with Microkeyer began to exhibit the exact
problems.  No PTT, no signals in the waterfall despite an active
number of PSK signals on the band.

FL-DIGi was displaying an audio ports error on the very bottom of the
screen.  I can't remember what it said exactly, something about
multiple ports, I think.

I closed FL-Digi and booted up Multipsk, signals were in the
waterfall.  So I went back in to FL-Digi, went to CONFIGURE , then
WATERFALL, and then  AUDIO.  I checked the capture and playback
selection to make sure I had the correct audio source.  I had three
audio sources that were possible, internal sound card, external sound
card, and USB camera with mic that I use for Skype.  Even though I had
the correct one selected, I clicked on it anyway.  Poof !  Signals in
the waterfall all of a sudden, and PTT command was working.  My friend
did the same, and all was well at his end.

Is this some sought of Skype related quirk, Microham Device Writer
quirk?  Anyone replicate this ?  What does the audio ports error in
FL-digi signify ?

[digitalradio] Some More Thoughts On WINMOR and Winlink

2009-03-02 Thread Andrew O'Brien
As the addition of WINMOR to Paclink has begun early testing , mostly
testing of rig interfacing, I have had an opportunity to reacquaint
myself with Paclink, Airmail, and the Winlink system.  I had set
things up for Winlink at my station a couple of years ago and used a
local 2M Telpac node to access the system  .  Sure, I could use the
Internet to access Winlink , but after my local telpac node went down
I regretted not having a direct radio on-ramp , no Pactor TNC here.

Just as I was tempted to spend a zillion dollars on a P3 capable
machine, along came talk of WINMOR .  I had some initial confusion
cleared  up by Rick, KV9U and others in an earlier thread.  Now, 
studying Paclink a bit more has me really looking forward to using
public mailboxes that use WINMOR on HF.  

I assume that many people know already, but just in case there are
some that do not, WINMOR will not be a digital mode that your can use
for keyboard chats or QSOs, it is intended to allow you to connect
to a HF Radio Message Server and unload your email formatted messages
.  It is a mode designed to work within the Paclink application.  

There is really no valid reason, but I bet you that when WINMOR HF
servers come on line...I will be trying to connect to one thousands of
miles away.  This,  despite the fact that I could pop my message in
to the system via Telnet or 2M packet.

I wrote a brief article for a local radio group explaining the
differing concepts between NBEMS/FLARQ in FL-Digi and WINMOR in
PacklinkW.  As I wrote it, and played around with both this weekend ,
I am of the opinion that BOTH will be useful tools  for message
delivery.  NBEMS for all the reasons previously mentioned on this
message group,  and the Winlink system that is efficient ,soon to be 
open to more people with a sound card based HF option, and a potential
busy-detect system that will hopefully eliminate some of the PACTOR
QRM argument.

Where all this leaves ALE, is another issue !

Just rambling,  73 de Andy K3UK
