Re: [digitalradio] A weekend of NBEMS: Some questions. now PSKmail!
Rein, I did finally get your Puppy ISO to work on my laptop, it was your latest Ham Puppy version I downloaded today , Fldigi fired up ok, with the Tigertronics SL USB interface. Question...Can PSKmail use PSK31 mode? My reason is that I only have a 10 watt ICOM 703 radio, for my portable ops. So..signals are not strong, and I have no need for higher data rates of PSK250. The reason for all this is that I am going on a motorcycle trip in South Africa, where there are not many stations, so I will probably be communicating to others outside the country, IF there are any PSKmail operators I can hear :-) My reasoning for trying to get around PSKmail was to try and avoid carrying a laptop. With the old type TNCs, you can use an AA battery powered RS232 terminal to drive them. I have one of these, works great on Packet TNCs. Also on Amtor, Pactor and PSK31 with SCS PTC-IIEx TNC http://www.ciao.co.uk/Psion_Workabout_Mx__5378172 Also the Psion 3MX too http://www.bioeddie.co.uk/models/psion-series-3mx.htm With these units, I just use the on board Comms Program. IF I use my Palm IIIx, I have the On Line comms program (now discontinued) from Mark Space in the U.S. It has macros and a few other features too. NONE of the above can use soundcard software. The good thing about them all is that they run on AA or AAA batteries :-) 73s Jack VK4JRC At 08:06 PM 1/7/2008, Rein wrote: Wrong again... * Every pskmail server has a local mailbox, so you can operate it without the internet connection.

Re: [digitalradio] A weekend of NBEMS: Some questions. now PSKmail!
Jack, yes, pskmail will work with PSK31 as well, in fact it will work with any mode that transports the complete set of ASCII characters (I am working on incorporating RTTY as well). But you will find PSK63 almost as good as PSK31, and a bit less sensitive to frequency stability. I am sure any of the server ops will open a PSK63 channel for you if you need it. We can also run modes like DominoEx if you need it. I know what you mean with the PSION, I used a PSION 3a, and I wrote a CW contest keyer and a contest log program for it. (Does not work for the 5MX). 73, Rein Pa0R -Ursprüngliche Nachricht- Von: digitalradio@yahoogroups.com Gesendet: 07.01.08 11:48:46 An: digitalradio@yahoogroups.com Betreff: Re: [digitalradio] A weekend of NBEMS: Some questions. now PSKmail!

Re: [digitalradio] A weekend of NBEMS: Some questions. now PSKmail!
Quite simply, I just see better range and performance using low power radios, on narrower bands. DominoEx would be fine :-) With all this mode advancement looking for MORE speed? Why? I get the impression some people would like to stream Hi Res Video over HF :-) I have to say I really appreciate the effort that software developers put into their work, just so other Hams can enjoy their hobby more, many of the programs for no cost, or small cost. I don't want to think what you would need to pay, in the commercial world for some of these programs. 73s Jack VK4JRC At 09:02 PM 1/7/2008, you wrote: Jack, yes, pskmail will work with PSK31 as well, in fact it will work with any mode that transports the complete set of ASCII characters (I am working on incorporating RTTY as well).
