Nico,

It sounds Igor’s proposal as futuristic but the callsign abbreviation and 
subscriber profile exchange practice via control signal plane can be seen 
anywhere in network protocols. Internet example is DHCP protocol, which makes 
the connection possible more than 4,294,967,296 devices with IPv4 32-bit 
address limitation.  If you remember old telephone system, you do not need to 
dial full 15 digit telephone numbers which ITU defines if you want to connect 
to other party within area code or city code.  If you demand subscribers to 
dial 15 digits with rotary dial telephone at call setup, how long  do they 
spend? I am sure it will be longer than one FT8 sequence. Subscriber profile 
exchange on control signal plane is similar if you look into HLR/VLR 
specification of cellular networks.

Does FT8 live in Titanic age or after telephone and Internet age?

Regards,

Subject: Re: [wsjt-devel] WSJT-X 2.0 possible new mode/protocol

Probably we can add more flexibility if some information will be passed over 
Internet, for instance free text messages and GRID, it will spare more bits 
toward sensitivity on the radio interface.

Ok, Igor, but then I would prefer to call the new modes "Weak Internet 
Communications".

Hello Joe,
.
It was excellent example with the WSPR QSO, just thought we can get additional 
FT8 gain if some messages at QSO will be transmitted as 'hash hash' / 'call 
hash' / 'hash call'   instead of callsigns.
.
Yes, there is a trade off between the sensitivity and protocol flexibility. 
Probably we can add more flexibility if some information will be passed over 
Internet, for instance free text messages and GRID, it will spare more bits 
toward sensitivity on the radio interface.
.
Other option is to pass some message's hash over Internet while transmitting 
this message via radio interface, it will also spare some bits toward 
sensitivity.
.
Proposed by Take JA5AEA variable code rate: we can pass information on the code 
rate over Internet at the QSO, hence appropriate decoder can be used per each 
message. The same approach can be implemented with the variable protocol where 
protocol details, for instance i3bit, can be broadcasted over Internet.
.
Leaving callsigns(hash) and report to the radio interface and combining radio 
interface messages and traffic over Internet in the FT8+ protocol we can marry 
JT65/JT9 sensitivity and FT8 rate of QSO.
.
I do not believe any new mode outside WSJT-X is a good idea, it would be more 
efficient to keep going in the common direction.
