[digitalradio] Contestia or other???
Hello, I am one in charge of digital modes of my club, (www.radiogruposur.com) and we will participate next weekend in ILLW, at Jose Ignacio Lighthouse, near Punta del Este, Uruguay. Since conditions are not good, I will ask you recomendations of the use of others digital modes than PSK31 RTTY that we will use, mainly because the entire world uses it, but I personnally want to use the oportunity to test any of low-prop modes. With Mixw 2.19 soft and CONTESTIA, OLIVIA and RTTYM dll´s loaded, I want to know your opinions to test them and can make probes with all of you. Sorry for not have a 30 mts antenna, but will be at 3.5, 7, 14, 18, 21 and 28 mhz. nearly 40 hs. Since saturday 00.00 UTC to sunday 20.00 UTC. Our call will be CW5X, and will be QRV via mail msn: radiogrupo...@adinet.com.uy Hope to see/hear you in this event. 73´s Good DX !!

. Many modes work well, and most are BETTER than PSK31, but the problem is that there are not many hams using the others nodes, So your lighthouse station may be calling CQ over and over again using a mode that no one uses. So, I would suggest just four modes. PSK31, PSK63 if the band is in GOOD condition, Olivia 500/16 , and MFSK16. I look forward to working the *Jose Ignacio Lighthouse Andy K3UK * On Sat, Aug 14, 2010 at 9:13 AM, OSCAR LAMA - CX1CW cx...@yahoo.es wrote: *Hello, I am one in charge of digital modes of my club, ( www.radiogruposur.com) and we will participate next weekend in ILLW, at Jose Ignacio Lighthouse, near Punta del Este, Uruguay.

If using anything other than PSK *please* use RSID if your program supports it. I was watching a guy calling CQ the other day and he was changing mode so fast I had no chance to keep up. I suggest PSK if conditions are OK, then Olivia. Simon Brown, HB9DRV http://sdr-radio.com From: digitalradio@yahoogroups.com [mailto:digitalra...@yahoogroups.com] On Behalf Of Andy obrien .
