Wrong again... * Every pskmail server has a local mailbox, so you can operate it without the internet connection. E,g, in some countries it is still forbidden to connect a radio to the internet, those are the countries which allow SSB on 30 mtrs by the way. For them the local mbox is the only

Rein, I did finally get your Puppy ISO to work on my laptop, it was your latest Ham Puppy version I downloaded today , Fldigi fired up ok, with the Tigertronics SL USB interface. Question...Can PSKmail use PSK31 mode? My reason is that I only have a 10 watt ICOM 703 radio, for my portable ops.

Jack, yes, pskmail will work with PSK31 as well, in fact it will work with any mode that transports the complete set of ASCII characters (I am working on incorporating RTTY as well). But you will find PSK63 almost as good as PSK31, and a bit less sensitive to frequency stability. I am sure

The statistics say it all :-) HF Packet on APRS works fine. Have a look at today's logs. The radio only puts out 8 watts. I had good results with this setup all through 2007, so its no fluke. It was standard 300 baud HF Packet, Robust Packet was not used.

Quite simply, I just see better range and performance using low power radios, on narrower bands. DominoEx would be fine :-) With all this mode advancement looking for MORE speed? Why? I get the impression some people would like to stream Hi Res Video over HF :-) I have to say I really

Hello Votjech, Why do you think to propose JT65 to your program. It would be quite nice to be able to do far QSOs with a Pocket PC and a small mobile QRP station. I have studied part of the JT65 code (TX part). It seems, a priori, not very complex and quite classical. I'll propose Delphi
