Hello to all testers,

Following the previous tests (which target continues to be to test the 
reconnection in case of QRM, QSB...), I have issued a new test version about 
ARQ FAE in ALE400,
Modifications: 
* I've reduced the detected bandwith to +/-120 Hz to avoid any off band RS ID,
* the asymetry Slave/master is increased,
* RS ID is sent at retry 3, 5, 7...

Here is the Multipsk test version:

Paste this adress in your Internet Explorer or equivalent. Download the file.
Create a tempory folder (C:\TEST, for example), unzip the file in it and start 
C:\TEST\Multipsk.exe (the auxiliary files will be created automatically). 


For ALE and ALE400, see:

Experimentation of the ARQ FAE / ALE400
For experimention, once connected, it would be useful to send something, to 
slighltly change the reception frequency (to create a problem) and to see how 
works the reconnection. It would be also interesting to stop the TX power for 
about 10 seconds to see how it reconnects afterwards. Normally, it must 
reconnect for a S/N >= -10 dB (the S/N measure is near the top bar of the "Aux. 
functions" window).

I will call, to-night, on 3585 KHz USB HF 1000 Hz AF +/- QRM, in ARQ FAE / 
ALE400 for QSO since 20h00 UTC until 20h30 UTC.
PSE push on the "RX RS ID" button. 

Hint: on the waterfall, the beginning of ALE400 transmission seems to be 2 paws 
with 3 nails on each paw.
If the AF frequency is well adjusted, the 2 blue vertical dashes must normally 
coincide with the 2 central  nails.
