the Pacific Northwest, come a little early and check this out.

unattended sections of the band... (And we need to get much more
'unattended' room.)
Bill - WA7NWP
Bonnie,
Thanks for the info. That does open it up for some preliminary testing...
Bill, WA7NWP
USA you can use it on every ham band,
MF, HF, VHF, UHF, etc.
Just be sure you are in the correct band
segment for image comms. And be sure your
transmission's content is image.
73 Bonnie VR2
So what would be the lowest band we could use it on? 10 meters? 6
meters? Higher?

Maybe I haven't been paying attention, but what is it that
makes 3580 a sacred gathering place for PSK? Why isn't it
070 like it is on some other bands? Why can't we just QSY
to get away from W1AW?
Many home brew low power rigs, psk included, use the standard and very
cheap 3.579 TV color
the opportunities here -
both with the ability to watch more of the bands as well as being able
to experiment with faster data on wider bandwidths. It just keeps

RSID?
Yes, using Commander, I set the dwell time for scanning to just 3 seconds. I
am scanning four 3Khz segments over 12 seconds. I may miss a few RS IDs but
it should be interesting.
Does a log file get created with the time's and freqs of RS-ID's heard?
begin to explore...
For a starter, how about a 10 KHz version of the QPSKx25 mode...

Phil's paper is from many years ago but the reality is that there was no
further movement away from the legacy AX.25 equipment toward a new
layer, much less toward a completely new protocol.
There is some movement...

Has anybody set up a Shoutcast or similar Internet radio feed of a psk
radio channel like 14.070?
I wonder how the latency and jitter on an TCP/IP audio feed would be tolerated.

only KISS for binary data. There may be some other data mode I don't
know of -- but we can be fairly certain the 710 doesn't do Kantronics

This would still be a good solution. 1/3 the band for narrow museum
modes. 1/3 for voice modes and 1/3 for modern progressive modes with
no rules or bandwidth limits and let technology rule.

band modes are exploding.
Not that having a place for museum modes is bad -- we just shouldn't
hold on to them at the expense of the future.

Bill,
What you have left is noisy HF.
So this is the time to try PSKMail. Its only (ONLY???) 200 WPM user

WPM? What is WPM? Bytes per second is a fixed measure. Assuming 5

There does seem to be a near consensus of radio amateurs that Pactor 3
simply does not belong on the amateur bands.
If that is true then BPL has won.
P3 is a good first step towards modern communications technologies.
A mouse going SQUEAK SQUEAK SQUEAK. He's making lots and lots of
an incredible IRC/IM clone called the Convers
server system. Unfortunately it's been essentially lost in the fuss of
all the other technologies. A few of us are using it out here on a more
regular bases and finding that goes a long ways towards increasing the
comaraderie quotient.

You still don't get it it's not me you need to be
talking to go post this on 6 meter user groups
websites and see if they agree with you .
The segment 50.5 - 51 is too small. Remember we
need something 200 kHz wide
to achieve the data rate objective for the test per
showing on the
display?

Any particular reason you think that European hams will be the ones
developing the ARQ sound card modes?
Maybe because they don't have the restrictive 1980's ARRL regulations
we're forced to operate under..

For casual use it's fine. For time critical use it's broken. It's the
pieces that need to be fixed - not the overall system.
