I agree with Rein's concern. Given the actions of the author in the
past, and the fact that he is not even part of the amateur radio
community, I'd be very hesitant to use that mode in a program, not know
knowing what other malicious code might be embedded in the ROS software.
Except for the 16 baud, 2000 Hz wide mode, which may be good for EME, I
don't see from the QSL card postings on the ROS website that ROS is any
better than Olivia or Contestia, and those modes do not take up a
disproportionate amount of spectrum space.
I'd say incorporate ROS at your own risk, programmers!

Hello John,
If your situation is not due to an installation problem
or other, but is part of the distributed software, planned,
programmed in, it might well have other consequences.
ROS modem is under consideration to be incorporated in other
amateur radio digital packages.
Think about that angle.
