If there is someone on 10.130, then of couse you would move away from that busy frequency and that probably means moving higher up a few KHz to the next available clear frequency.
I had to take a break from writing this message because, of all things, I heard a station around 10.130 on a digital mode. I was thinking it was Olivia due to the sound, but the bandwidth did not fit quite right with the markers for any of the 500 Hz modes and of course I could not decode it. Finally, we contacted each other on CW, and Rod, KN3ZOG, explained he was sending with DominoEX. So I brought up the separate Domino program since I don't have the EX version on MultiPSK. Signals did not move the S meter very much but were very good copy from a CW point of view. The decode was not perfect but we may not have been tuned quite right either. I find the tuning to be a bit different I think and not as easy to use as in my regular program. Since it does not provide for keying the CI-V on my ICOM, it was difficult to manually do the switching. I noticed that on both ends, I was causing considerable carriage returns making it nearly impossible to read, so switched to sentence mode. Then it would stop TX and switch to RX when it caught up with my keyboarding. Since it is a fast mode, that was pretty often:) I still prefer MFSK16 or Olivia for casual keyboarding, but if Domino got some FEC and even better, some ARQ, it would be most interesting to see how it would perform. 73, Rick, KV9U Jerry W wrote: > Rick, > > One problem with 10.130 in the evening, a very strong FSK signal > (foreign government or commercial origin?) difficult to filter it out > at least in South St Paul, MN. > > Jerry - K0HZI > > Need a Digital mode QSO?
