Hi Rick... The bands were pretty awrful this morning so I wasn't hearing a whole lot myself. It will get better this afternoon and I'm thinking it will be much better tomorrow. Wisconsin is always a tough haul from Iowa, it seems, but you will be hearing everything better this afternoon.
The frequency I gave you is very approximate, since radios seem to vary widely in their accuracy, and is based on the most usual TNC setting of 1600-1800 HZ. Some TNCs have different tones, but most are set at 1600-1800. One other caveat...since we are doing forwarding of bulletins, the bulk of the transmission are in FBB compatible compression, so unless you are using a BBS program such as FBB or MSYS, you will be seeing compressed characters with only some titles sent in clear English. That may serve to get you what you want, or if you want to dig in a little deeper, you may need to download and install a program that decodes compressed packets. If I can be helpful, let me know how. 73 Mark KQ0I Des Moines, IA --- On Wed, 2/4/09, Rick W <mrf...@frontiernet.net> wrote: > From: Rick W <mrf...@frontiernet.net> > Subject: Re: [digitalradio] HF packet > To: digitalradio@yahoogroups.com > Date: Wednesday, February 4, 2009, 12:31 PM > Hi Mark, > > I tuned to your recommended frequencies and although heard > some packet, > it was rare to decode much.
