"Standard" Forthcoming?
Last night I monitored a number of 80 meter contacts. There
was some MFSK16 but was very weak and I found it difficult to print well.
The Olivia stations were much stronger and did print quite well and were
running 500/8. However, the MFSK16 is much narrower in terms of BW and
that should be considered but if you can not make the contact with a
given mode, even if it is much faster, then a slower mode still is
better. In general though, I find the Olivia modes to be too slow for
moderately competent keyboard speed. The faster Olivia modes require too
high a baud rate to be practical under typical 80 meter conditions based
on my past experience.
