If you look at the background of the ARRL direction, such as: http://home.satx.rr.com/wdubose/hsmm/hsmm-webpage.html
It does not seem to me that much of this has come to the point of not requiring further study and experimentation. Where are the results published since the 2001 inception? What HSMM networking protocols and systems were developed from the vision? When you do a search for related information you get things like: http://www.qsl.net/n3der/ARRL/New/index.html Which point to web pages such as: http://www.qsl.net/n3der/ARRL/New/archives.html which don't even have anything archived. What happened to the HSMM OFDM Modem"? http://www.conmicro.cx/~jmaynard/arrlhsmm.pdf Many of the comments I made earlier were based on the comments made by you on: http://www.arrl.org/announce/reports-0307/hsmm.html So I think that I have been very fair and hopefully understanding the politics on this issue, since it was you who openly expressed this dissatisfaction. One would think that Paul would have been working closely with HSMM from the inception but maybe I do not understand his position as CTO? I don't seem much related to HF though. In 2003, Neil, K8IT was to lead the HSMM-HF project. I don't really recognize this call. What was this project all about and what developed from the work? What about the HSMM WG Linux Infrastructure? Did anything ever happen with that? 73, KV9U John Champa wrote: > Rick, > > Paul as the CTO was our reporting person.
