All, I received an email from Peter Martinez today regarding the new codec developed by Dave Rowe. I had asked him if it was possible to use it in one of the digital voice applications and he explained that the modem, which was originally designed by Peter for a different voice codec, would have to be modified for it to work with Dave's codec.
He said that he would not be able to take this on at the moment because of other obligations, but he did mention that he would pass along the know-how to anyone who would like to try writing a modem for Dave's codec based on Peter's own FDM design. This is how Cesco, HB9TLK re-engineered Peter's modem to work with a slower 1400 bps codec for the digital voice program FDMDV and how Erik, VK4RS developed EasyPal Unfortunately, we haven't been able to get in touch with Cesco for some time now so it may be necessary to have someone come up with a new digital voice application - something along the lines of WinDRM / FDMDV. If anyone is interested in taking on these projects, please contact me direct and I will put you in touch with Peter. Thanks, Tony -K2MO
