[digitalradio] RS-ID MSG-ID with SDR

2010-03-01 Thread sholtofish
I was wondering if anyone has used the MSG ID function in MultiPSK with an SDR 
radio?

In theory I think it should be possible to use MSG ID to send a little text 
message anywhere in the 20m digital portion and have it display on the 
waterfall of the SDR receiver.

The MSG ID function uses RS ID technology to send simple messages that are 
automatically decoded no matter where they appear on the waterfall.

There is also a PROP ID function that sends your callsign, power level, grid 
square etc which also could be decoded in the wide SDR bandwidth.

I don't have an SDR to test it but would be very interested if someone on here 
gave it a go and posted their experience/results.

I have a Perseus SDR and will update my copy of MultiPSK to have a go.

Not having used MSG ID I may need a bit of help to set it up properly, 
if you have step by step instructions that would help.

If it's reasonably straight forward to do I may have it configured later 
this evening.

Since the RS ID works well over this range with my SDR, I see no reason why
the MSG ID would not work.
