Just shows what an excellent engineer Pawel is (Pawel designed Olivia and MT63 and had a part to play in PSK with slowbpsk). Also I would have sent the PSK using lowercase - it's faster, less bits per character and hence more robust. Simon Brown, HB9DRV www.ham-radio-deluxe.com -

PSK lowercase will be interesting, as *everyone* on this list knows lowercase PSK is faster and more robust, yet many Hams send everything in uppercase - calling CQ DX in uppercase is just - daft :) FWIW The only difference between Contestia / RTTYM and Olivia is that Olivia is a 7-bit char

the same wpm rate as Contestia 16/500, but Contestia is some 6db more robust. Tony -K2MO - Original Message - From: Simon (HB9DRV) simon.br...@kns.ch To: digitalradio@yahoogroups.com Sent: Sunday, May 24, 2009 2:35 PM Subject: Re: [digitalradio] More Path Simulations: Contestia / RTTYM

All, Thought this might interest the group The path simulation tests below show how each mode might behave under the same signal-to-noise / HF path conditions. Modes included in each test group have approximately the same word-per-minute rate -- for example: Olivia 16/500, RTTYM 64/500

Time to start using Contestia again ?
