Patrick, Just checked the peak amplitude of the RSID / Call ID clips and they are both within 0.2db of each other. These are the audio files I used to determine the 100% throughput SNR for each mode using PathSim. I am sending you the files so you can test them at your leisure. The RSID (Mode

Hello Tony, The S/N that you measure seems quite close to mine (-20 dB against -16 dB and -14 against -13 dB). In our measures, there is always a certain uncertainty because the noise is not really white after going through a sound card output and a sound card input. Moreover, in fact in all my

I would recommend Ubuntu 9.04 to start with. It's what most of us here locally are using. Ubuntu is a variatnt of Debian which is the basis for a couple of other 'flavors' of Linux. Ubuntu and Debian come with WSJT, fldigi, and gMSFK as supported software installs. You'll also have other Amatuer

I have to agree with using Ubuntu, and 9.10 is out. I upgraded from 9.04 and had no problem. You can also copy it to a disk and run it off that to make sure you like it before you do a hard install.   I do wish HRD was available for Linux and I would dump windoze completely.   73 Kurt --- On

For linux ham, I would recommend Linux Mint where you can install the o/s on your computer and download and install ham apps easily. If you want to run off a small O/S via cd or flash go with Puppy. Fldigi works good with either...gud luck, Alan On Sat, Oct 31, 2009 at 11:50 AM, Marty W8AKS
