I will apply the guillotine to the discussion of ALE Busy
Detect..Attended/Unattended issue. Many helpful ideas and opinions
have been shared already, if you have anything constructive to add
please do so by 1200 UTC 26/11/09 after that I will expect comments to
end as the thread will have run
Right on Andy, it is that time of year again that seems to keep coming
around faster and faster with each passing year - do only us 'mature' folks
feel that though? hi Hi HI
Have much appreciated all the constructive comments, and looking forward to
the next generation of digital modes. Thanks
All contesters and DX pileup participants
should use busy detectors! This is quite
evident since it has been proven that such
types of operation are the source of 99% of
harmful interference and intentional interference
on the HF ham bands. Manual methods of busy
detection have been proven

ALE Disadvantages
There are a couple of detractors related to ALE that exist for amateurs. These
are frequency selection and
interference problems. Unlike the government, which has a greater selection of
frequencies, amateurs are confined to
specific bands. ALE requires a wide

John, what I am 'badmouthing' is illegal and rude operating habits.

they were to do so, I would be among the first to congratulate and praise them,

I have seen the same thing. One of the problems is that 20 and 15 are the

Let me try it this way - if I'm operating with my mark tone
on a freq between your mark and space you never bother
my QSO. Why is that the every time you hear a tone
close to your operating freq it's QRM.
It seems to a lot that you just like to complain.

To the Moderators,
This is my opinion and mine alone. I think that this thread has outlived it
usefulness. You have one saying put your money where your mouth is and
contester need to have busy dect. Then what is good winlids or packeters.

This is a generic problem: How much must a user on an adjacent frequency
take into account that his neighbor is unable or unwilling to operate at
only the bandwidth necessary for an emission? Typically, we see complaints

what TNC tones are you using and what is your

If you are interested in testing and Patrick is interested in adding an
enabling feature to generate some TCP/IP commands at the proper time,
then we should be anble to bring about a more complete solution by making

Hi Bonnie
I don't always agree with you , but this time I am with you 100%.
The frequency spectrum is a limited resource and it is completely
unacceptable that an over-crowded group of so-called contesters are
allowed to squeeze out other hams from the bands.

i also understand this is true in many EU countries..
the NA region is around 7070
so if NA ops want to contact with EU or VK/ZL using digimodes they head
for the frequencies that they are using.

I would have tought, with them getting a double wide band, they would have gone
upward, if anything. Leave the cw to the lower portion, but who knows what

I would think Region 2 would continue to use 7070 for 'local' QSOs and only
move to 7036 when looking for DX contacts out of the region. Ok, well as a QRP
