I am almost always willing to try different modes. It surprises me how few want to do this. However, I admit that many times you try the mode and realize that it is not going to become popular for one reason or another.
Any new mode must have some attributes that other modes don't have and even then that does not guarantee adoption by the larger community. But it is partly that we don't have spot frequencies that everybody knows is used for "x" mode. Sometimes I have been monitoring other conversations and there will be comments about using other modes but they did not find any interest. That is how I made a recent VBDigi/flarq ARQ contact this week:) I don't recall ever using the SSTV part of Multipsk but would be willing to try it. 20 meters would likely be our best band between WI and FL? Perhaps 14.074? 73, Rick, KV9U Jon Maguire wrote: > Rick, > > Patrick sent me this... wanna play? :-) >> "There is a Word document which goal is to show from two Multipsk >> snapshots how to do the basic operations in SSTV in MFSK16.
