That is true. Fortunately, there are times when signals are above the decode threshold for the majority of modes. That gives us the chance to test the higher throughput modes to see what works in heavy static. >MFSK16 turned out (after three months of testing) to be the most >>static-resistant mode of all That is interesting Skip. It did seem to do slightly better than THOR22 during n simulated tests. Did you see any advantage in throughput with MT63 during the static crash tests when signals were adequate? Tony -K2MO
