Tony, Just got in from work(night job) 11:48Z. I am off today but will have to take a nap, then get up. Will try and catch up with you later today or tonight.

Hal Hal, Seems the majority of MT63 activity is on 20 meters - 14108.0 / 14109.0. It is sparse though. I do see some using the 500Hz mode around 3586.0. I can meet you on 14108.0 if you like -- it's 0210z.

Re: [digitalradio] Speech-to-Text for the Handicapped
All, I am setting up my mobile rig again(icom 706/High Sierra Screwdriver/Ameritron amp). I wonder if you could run ALE400 or other digital modes from the mobile using speech recognition software???

Re: [digitalradio] Speech-to-Text for the Handicapped
Tony, I was going to mention the bumps. HI HI. I ran a MFJ Iambic Keyer ( a group of us in the Brandon club started using them). I had it mounted on a thick piece of plexiglass next to my leg on a long floor/hump mounted stem. When you hit the bumps, all bets where off ,you just went with the flow. I used to send the cw correction, then cw just hit bump in road hi hi the receiving hams got a big kick out of it. Hope to work you. hal WD4MDA - Original Message - From: Tony d...@optonline.net To: digitalradio@yahoogroups.com Sent: Friday, May 21, 2010 5:00 AM Subject: Re: [digitalradio] Speech-to-Text for the Handicapped On 5/21/2010 4:28 AM, Hal Stang wrote: Thanks Tony I appreciate.

I used to take along a Bulldog mini paddle http://www.amateurradioproducts.com/ and use it with the Icom 706. The built-in keyer works well once you tweak it a bit. Lots of fun, but a good size bump in the road can really scramble your sending for a moment, especially with the Econo-box I drove hi. Hope to work you ALE-400 /M. That would be a first for me!

Re: [digitalradio] ALE 400
Patrick , Thanks for info. Still in the infancy stage of learning Ale 400 and MultiPsk. Any and all help is appreciated. Been printing the manual download for Ale. Articles, web sites etc. A question. Do you use the Beacon Set up they mention? I read it again last night and thought it was quite interesting. again thank you, 73 Hal Stang WD4MDA - Original Message - From: H Stang To: H Stang WD4MDA Sent: Thursday, May 20, 2010 11:44 AM Subject: Fw: [digitalradio] ALE 400 - Original Message - From: Patrick Lindecker To: digitalradio@yahoogroups.com Sent: Wednesday, May 19, 2010 3:00 PM Subject: Re: [digitalradio] ALE 400 Hello Stang, where I type, it sends. You have an option to send only when you type the Enter key (to fix errors for example). Also in QSB there appears to be a constant resending of the typed material till it gets it correct. not sure but it seems that way. Yes this is normal. Moreover, after a fix number of retries, it is sent a RS ID to try to automatically re-tune (i.e resynchronise in time and frequency) the transmissions (the RS ID being more sensitive than ALE400). If the QSB is too long (more than 90 sec or 15 NAK), it is operated an automatic disconnection. 73 Patrick - Original Message - From: H Stang To: digitalradio@yahoogroups.com Sent: Tuesday, May 18, 2010 9:42 PM Subject: Re: [digitalradio] ALE 400 Chuck, I saw your email and went to 14074 but didn't hear or see you. Band was ruff. just finished two ALE 400 QSO's with KEIAF AND WB2LMV. QSB aplenty. I am in the same mode of trying to figure it out. It is getting a little easir.. I have made 5 ALE400 contacts in the last two days. I may have to adjust my screen colors (Multipsk) where I type, it sends. If that can be done. They are both red, and it has been confusing me. Also in QSB there appears to be a constant resending of the typed material till it gets it correct. not sure but it seems that way. WB2MLV made a comment about that. So more study. Good luck.
