[digitalradio] HRD Utilities/TQSL LoTW/JT65

2010-03-24 Thread David Wright
All, Apologize the cross-post, but this problem may cross several lines. Before my reinstall of WinXP this past weekend, I was using WSJT to operate JT65, the logbook in HRD/DM780 to log the exchanges, and HRD Utilities to upload automatically to LoTW. I had no problems with this, but

I apologize for this, but I found the solution. After Googling this for sometime and finally asking the group, the very next link I clicked on had the answer. If anyone else is having this problem, simply google ARRL Cert.tq6 and download the file (https://p1k.arrl.org/lotw/config.tq6).

Re: [digitalradio] Another plug for JT65A ... the spectrum efficient mode

Spectrum efficiency must be measured in time necessary to get the info across, length of info transferred, and bandwidth. ((characters/second)/ bandwidth) or characters/(seconds * bandwidth). The bandwidth includes a certain guard band(minimum distance between 2 different  signals), which for

But if the path S/N is so poor that you cannot get the message across at all, isn't the spectrum efficiency zero? ;-) 73 - Skip KH6TY Rein Couperus wrote: Spectrum efficiency must be measured in time necessary to get the info across, length of info transferred, and bandwidth.

Good point. What you have defined , Rein,is the occupancy efficiency in terms of time.. I was measuring efficiency in terms of bandwidth used. Obviously the othe rmeasure is wether the message was deleivered. Using 5 watts for a 300-400 miles trasmission on 80M at night , PSK250 may have needed

Hi Andy, well, I don't agree... as soon as you talk efficiency, you have to define what that means. For me bandwidth efficiency is 3-dimensional, it defines how much information can be  transferred within a certain time span, within a certain bandwidth. JT65A works with 65 frequencies, which

Hi Andy, I made mention of years ago via this forum that AQC-ALE is the the solution to your desires in these areas and that is still true and the neew features I have coded into PC-ALE and those that I am currntly working on will aid you in your pursuits. AQC-ALE ( which is only found in

I fully agree Steve, it sounds like the way to go. I only have 1.062H, will have to check to see if I have the new features. Andy K3UK On Wed, Mar 24, 2010 at 6:07 PM, N2CKH n2...@morrisbb.net wrote: Hi Andy, I made mention of years ago via this forum that AQC-ALE is the the solution to

I think it's fair to discuss, which is to say question, whether military standard ALE is the best thing to use on amateur frequencies. It's good to make use of existing standards when they fit the situation, but military radio is not amateur radio. With our crowded bands, and with amateur radios
