I'm sorry, but I have never understood WHY the mode got dropped just
because PSK came alive. I see no reason why it can't be as fun to
use as legacy RTTY. I'm probably odd man out but frankly, after
some trial and error testing, I have little interest in MT63, Olivia,

Yes, John, a terrible moral failing, I know... 8-)
Elaine and I had some attempts to work each other the past few days as I
heard her on the bands but we were always quite weak to each other. If
we had been using Pactor modems, especially those from non SCS
manufacturers, I doubt that we would have had any luck connecting.

How does one CQ in Pactor ARQ?

You don't, you would use either Pactor-1 FEC or RTTY to call CQ first.

Yes, I know. That was my point. I haven't heard a Pactor FEC signal in
3 or 4 years.

Hi Nick,
I can be QRV tomorrow (1/1/08) between 14 and 16 UTC on that frequency

should be OK.

Howard,
I've read where the thinking is that most hams won't bother with the
PACTOR I if only because of little desire to buy an expensive outboard
TNC. What about the hams who never threw away their original TNC,
the one sitting in the closet per se?
I've often wondered the same thing.
OK congrats on the technicality but my point was looking for ARQ
response. If someone replies FEC with a soundcard I'll answer.

I use Pactor I every now and then for keyboard to keyboard. It is hit
