Hi, You can set the data rate and you can use 300 bps if you wish. Also, its not actually 2400 baud but rather 2400 bps. If I remember this right then a user data rate of 1200 bps would require a channel rate of 2400 bps. That channel rate is then sent at 1200 bauds using 4-psk (two bits per state change). But yes, if I remember the standard right then the actual baud rate is always more than 1200 bauds. 75 bps is a special case using a channel rate of 150 bps but it uses a really long word for each bit and the resulting baud rate is still too high (but legal here in europe).

We can not use baud rates over 300 here in the U.S. on the text digital portions of the bands, but they could possibly be used in the voice/image portions for sending images/fax. Possibly packets could be received as long as you are not linked and the program can send unconnected packets? What will be extremely helpful is for any experiences you have with data throughput vs S/N and interference. It is still curious to me that the promoters of "ALE" modes do not test these protocols in the voice portions of the bands. Also on 6 meters and up. There has been absolutely no measurements of S/N in real world tests on the amateur frequencies that we have heard thus far. 73, Rick, KV9U John Bradley wrote: > > Tnx fer the note, Howard > > > > Over the next week or so ,we should have VE5GPM up and running 24/7 on > RFSM 8000, not beaconing, but ready to receive calls and transfer files. > > > > VE5TLW and I will be working on learning the software and making a > little noise with same.
