Skip, I agree with you.
My considerations to prefer in HF Contestia 250/4 format is related to
the idea to find some compromise for bpsk31 folk, Olivia light users,
and rtty folk when the propagation is not enough good for bpsk31 and rtty.
So Cnt 250/4 with 39wpm is the first alternative for
Jaak,
I agree with your reasoning in testing Contestia 250/4. I also think
that a good approach would be for EVERYONE to use RSID so a station can
shift the QSO mode according to typing preference or propagation
conditions, as determined at either end of the QSO. Multipsk, DM780, and

In a channelized setting, PIII will not exceed allowed bandwidth.
But, to answer your question about why the ARRL pushes PIII; relevance

When there is a race for control of long-haul spectrum (for which there

What it means is that the channel will be dominated with personal

I don't have one, but the M-8000 is intended to decode a lot of

the quality of the modem is on a par with the best of the hardware
modems, marginally below the better DSP modems. I would probably

much risk of packet of errors).

Patrick,
Thanks. I'll ask Dave to request the number. He is already going to add
Contestia 64/1000 and Contestia 64/2000 to Fldigi because those are
needed on UHF when SSB cannot get though due to poor propagation,
Doppler speading, and multipath.

FYI, I plan to file a comment opposing the PIII on 60M proposal. My
objections are
PIII is a proprietary mode .
PIII as used in non-busy detect Winkink system has been the leading cause
of QRM complaints for the past 10 years, hence they are likely to cause the

Why not just limit bandwidth of any emission to 500 Hz?

I take that as a no to my question about whether Pactor III has ever been

My understanding is that if it is not, then it isn't authorized for use on the
amateur bands in the US. I'm not opposed to Pactor III, per se, but by my
