[digitalradio] Phoenix Area PSK on VHF

2009-01-27 Thread ke7tqc
Anyone in the Phoenix area interested in VHF PSK31?, I'm looking to
try and get a FM or SSB 2M net on PSK31 established in the Phoenix
area.  I know the range isn't like HF, but it could be something to
break the same old same old on 2M.

Thanks
Mike, KE7TQC

Mike,

We started out on SSB using PSK63, then switched to FM using PSK63, but have 
had the most luck with DominoEx 8 for our twice-weekly FM net, so I suggest 
you look at DominoEx 8, which is in fldigi or Multipsk.

Theoretically, when using FM, drift should not be a problem and PSK31 should 
work as well as DominoEX, but we have found that for signals under limiting 
and quieting, DominoEx seems better.

For those with FM-only transceivers, VOX is usually not available, so you 
need an interface with built-in VOX, like the SignaLink USB, for PTT 
switching by the software. I have developed a low cost alternative interface 
for FM-only transceivers. The schematic is here:

To make test use low power because the radio finals don't hold long TX.
