Hello all,
the MS (Meteor Scatter) procedure has two report systems. The standard MS report could be in two formats - first the format, described by PA9KT - second the (R-number-number) format which is used when the complete report is received first and the own report is'nt given before R27 R37 R28 etc.etc. For AURORA QSO is the standard Report in the form RS and the letter A for AURORA. 55A 57A 59A etc. (exatly 3 signs for CW and for SSB too)! This is the practical finding - in former times I'am WKD over 1500 MS and Aurora QSO's 73 Milan, OK1FM Milan GÜTTER http://www.ok1fm.com E-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ****************************************** From: "Timon PA9KT" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Paul van der Eijk" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, <dx4win@mailman.qth.net> Date: Sat, 18 Jan 2003 23:43:51 -0000 Subject: [Dx4win] rst in new versiin 6 Hello all For the new version of dx4win i would like to have some more report posibilities. In vhf we use other rst as on hf. Aspecially for mounbounce aurora and meteoorscatter work. In vhf there are a few technikes with there own reports. In eme (mounbouce) the normal reports 51 till 59 ssb or 519 til 599 cw are posible. But the most given report is the O report. Witch says it is to weak for 51 but al details are received. In meteroorscatter we use the following system: Reporting system The report consists of two numbers: First number Burst duration Second number Signal strength 2 up to 5 sec 6 up to S3 3 5 - 20 sec 7 S4, S5 4 20 - 120 sec 8 S6, S7 5 longer than 120 sec 9 S8 and stronger so 26 27 38 49 etc In 3cm rainscatter we give 51r to 59r The r gives that the contact is made bij rainscatter.
