Well, IMHO, EasyPal has great potential for sending all file types - text, pictures, etc.. with error-correction/partial-retransmits. The problem with EasyPal - it seems only people with 500+ watt amplifiers can transmit reliably via NVIS antennas to the majority of users listening in the

Hi, I recently upgraded fldigi from 3.11.4 to 3.12.3 on a vista premium SP2 system. I found that fldigi dies within a few seconds. I downloaded fldigi 3.11.6, and it appears to function properly. I do not see a link on fldigi's website to report such problems, so I thought I'd report it

Could you comment further on your experiences with RFSM? 73, Rick, KV9U My local MARS group has been experimenting with RFSM8000. Like MIXW, it is made in Russia, and the author wants to earn some money selling it. Free trial licenses are available. RFSM8000 uses the Mil-Spec modem -

Well, let me see. 2m/70cm D-star radios can communicate with each other without a repeater. These radios can send audio and slow speed data simultaneously. The slow speed data can be displayed on the radio's screen or on a laptop connected to the radio. The call-sign squelch should work

Here are some possibilities: 1. Teams have their radios on all the time, or perhaps only on the top of the hour for 10 minutes to check in - so their welfare and status is known and for delivering any important messages. 2. Teams connect to an email server via the radio at least once an hour.

There is a relatively new version of RFSM8000 #535 In the email server mode - email would go out on the internet to someone's personal or bussiness email without a FROM address. Thus how to reply was difficult or non obvious. This is now fixed. The FROM address is now the email address the

Yes indeed - I have found that nothing on HF is reliable 24/7. One can not reliably reach another country at will regardless of equipment. Local NVIS operation also has problems. In my MARS group before DST ended, conditions were pretty bad because we started before sunrise - and then

Is the volunteer out of VHF range? If the base station has a 100 watt VHF radio like the 746pro - you might be able to still reach the volunteer, but he may not have enough power to get back to you. Or he may be out of VHF range. HF is the way to go - but both ends of the conversation need
