A dose of reality

>>...PACTOR II which seems to be the very best HF system but can't yet get
a price from PacComm for the modem.  - Karl F. Larsen

PactorII is absolutely amazing. I link solidly through rtty noise with 100w
and a dipole to HB9 on 14085 QRR. Usually I do not hear the other station!
Throughputs are in the 300-500 baud range.
Now if someone can mux the pactorII stuff on a HF spread spectrum program,
would that speed up throughput  to useful levels? Not sure. T.Sailer would
be able to answer that.
The SCS DSP is directly accessible and Linux is a natural to play games
with it!
