 Any thoughts? 

Tony and other qrp-fans

Calling frequencies for digiqrp related by DigiQRP group to the Olivia 500/16 
format last channel specified by http://hflink.com/olivia/
More info http://www.edutee.net/digiqrp

Real QSOs in 30m, 20m and higher bands show that there are no big difference 
between digiqrp 5w and qro 50w, bigger player is antenna. Sometimes the psk is 
not the best mode, better to switch to DominoEX4 with 173Hz bw and snr=-7dB.  
The MFSK16+image with snr=-10dB as suited for qrp, weak signals may need manual 
aftertuning for proper decoding.
Olivia 500/16 is bulletproof but slow.
Others full characterset modes more for digi historians...

What modes for 6m better? I use QRP-power in  rare grid (most wanted) and what 
is the best mode? DominoEX or Thor? Or Olivia? or...

 With Spring/Summer close in the northern hemisphere, 6M openings may
 be more frequent.  Previous discussions have mentioned how this rather
 quite band can be effective for various experimental digital modes.
 Does anyone have an suggestions for ways we may stimulate some more
 digital activity on 6M?

 Maybe use something above the calling frequency but not too close to the 
 phone operators? Perhaps 50.150 (easy to remember, HI)

50.150 in Reg.1 SSB calling freq.
Better to use for for dx-value Oliva standard 6m frequencies 
http://hflink.com/olivia/#settings

so dial for:
reg.1 50286.5 and
reg.2 50291.5
Olivia format 500/16
ACF 750Hz (region CF), 1250Hz, 1750Hz (dx-window), ... - so at least 3 
specified channels

Accepted?

[digitalradio] s/n and acoustic coupling

2008-08-25 Thread jaakhohensee
In field I use PocketDigi and PDA with acoustic coupling (PDA-mic). 
How the acoustic coupling change the capability to decode signals below 
the noise floor?
