Hi Simon! First of all my compliments on a fine piece of software. Good work. I'm sure that all the Amateur Radio community who works digi modes is gratefull. Second, can you clarify this: Also the Yahoo! MixW list owner wouldn't let me join the group (I am sure they breach the terms of the Yahoo! groups), so this gave impetuous to the development.

When I click on one of frequencies it the dx cluster list it does not change the mode of the radio, TS-440 to usb when it is above 10mhz or when I am above 10mhz and go below it does not change it to lsb. What do I not have setup correctly or do I have to set the mode manualy when using dx cluster to change the frequency on this radio? Sincerely James KC9KTV

[digitalradio] Bulid your own modes?
I note that when something like DM780 comes along, we tend to express desires that it add a mode that is not covered. I wonder , is it possible to design a piece of software that would allow the user to add their own modes? I'm thinking of a basic shell with rig control and a waterfall, , then if a publicly available DLL is available (like Moe's PSK CORE ) for the other modes, we could just add them. I have no idea if this is an easy task since I could not program my way out of a paper bag. I figure if my 11 year daughter can build her own bear at the mall, maybe we hams can build our own mode menus. It might be easier on the author too, he/she would not get a zillion requests to add the mode du jour . -- Andy K3UK Skype Me : callto://andyobrien73 www.obriensweb.com
Re: [digitalradio] Bulid your own modes?
Think no further: this is something else which I support. The decoder / encoder sits in a DLL with source available. In fact there are two DLLs: one for PSK only (based on Moe's code) and one based on fldigi (I am yet to write this). I plan that DM780 will look at the DLLs in its folder when it starts and load those which look like they could be of some use, there will be a specification for this and you will be able to take the source I supply. This should / could be available by about the end of June.

Re: [digitalradio] JT65 - ZS6WN 1920z
Andy: Good one Tony! Sure is a neat way to work super-weak signals on HF. I moved the beam away from the stations I was copying to see how far into the noise I could hear them. Copied a few at minus 20db. Was able to work several stations on EME with a signal Yagi / 100 watts with this mode a while back so it does work wonders.

Re: [digitalradio] Bulid your own modes?
Simon, You might also want to look at pocketdigi, where Vojtech which has taken the gmfsk modems and ported them to WinCE/PocketPC. He also has an x86 Windows compiled version. I am sure Dave has advanced the gmfsk modems (many of which themselves came from other places) but it may be possible to share techniques among all those who are porting the same codebase to Windows. http://pocketdigi.sourceforge.net Leigh/WA5ZNU/KH6 On Tue, 3 Apr 2007 2:56 am, Simon Brown wrote: Think no further: this is something else which I support.

Thanks for the heads up Simon, the question I have know is that when you use the band switch on the radio it automatically changes for lsb to usb or just the opposite, can the program change to the band first and then input the frequency so that it would be in the correct mode?

RE: [digitalradio] Re: Digital Master 780
Actually all 3 of the ones in the waterfall . My thing is when I run this on my laptop I need to make use of the most screen real estate I can. I can switch modes from the top of the QSO window so the Mode bar can hide. I can switch the rig and the frequency displayed will follow so the fav's bar can hide. And once I have the waterfall set the way I want it I wouldn't need to see the display control bar.

Re: [digitalradio] Re: Digital Master 780
To be honest you're best off getting a second-hand computer for DM780. I have a laptop coming with WinXP for such occasions. I also need it for some of our children's learning programs. It will just not be allowed direct access to the internet. Let's assume I wrote it in Java - I've still got the problem of soundcard interfacing (not an enormous issue), packaging it up, testing every change I make. Life's too short for this, it's a hobby. Understood. Anyway, as a Linux user you have fldigi, a fine program. Simon Brown, HB9DRV I have it, just wanted to join in the excitement of your new program! :-) -- Thanks! 73, doc, KD4E Projects: ham-macguyver.bibleseven.com Personal: bibleseven.com/kd4e.html
Re: [digitalradio] Re: Digital Master 780
What is the likelihood it would run under Linux using the WINE interface? Is there too much that relies upon elements of proprietary MS design or is it fairly generic -- if it runs under Win98, Win2000, and WinXP I am guessing it is pretty generic and may run under WINE. In the bigger picture I have observed that Java is often used for cross-platform compatibility and TCL/TK to make things really small. Not sure what other tools are most suited to cross-platform development. Sure wish I had the skills to develop this sort of stuff! Thanks for creating it! No - I just don't have enough time to write the Windows code I need. Just buy an (old) 1 GHz Windows 2000 system and you are in business. Also it's not a port - it really needs a 100% rewrite for Linux / Mac OS. Simon Brown, HB9DRV -- Thanks! 73, doc, KD4E Projects: ham-macguyver.bibleseven.com Personal: bibleseven.com/kd4e.html

[digitalradio] Best mode for severe QRN?
Well, tonight my experimenter friend and I got taken out by QRN when it came to digital modes. We often run a Tuesday night sked. We started on MFSK16 and then tried to go to the ALE 141A mode and no luck with that or FAE. It just could not handle that much QRN. We then went back to MFSK and decided to try DEX11/FEC which I was hoping would work as well as it has been during quieter times. No luck. Hardly any print so dropped down to 8 baud and still no good. What a disappointment. Back to MFSK, but even that was getting more and more spotty with lots of hits and even long stretches of no print at all. The QRN levels were at or exceeding 50 microvolts (S9 on my calibrated S-meter). The signals seemed to have deteriorated as well and actually appeared to get much weaker. I don't think it was just the S/N ratio causing this but was a combination of weaker signals and stronger QRN. In fact, I got so desperate for any kind of mode that I switched to CW and eventually I moved up a bit and he realized that I was sending CW in his passband. Even then, the communications were extremely difficult with the CW tones being chopped up badly by the QRN which were at the serious popcorn level. Increasing filters did not really help much. It did increase the S/N ratio but the noise bursts tend to block the signal, making it more difficult to copy than with a wider filter. Of all the sound card modes we have now, I would like to hear some opinions of what you think is the best one for these kinds of conditions. 73, Rick, KV9U

[digitalradio] Re: Best mode for severe QRN?
Hello Rick, Try MT63 under heavy QRN conditions; alot of downsides but for bucking qrn/qrm have found this about the bestCHIP modes also seem to do well in high qrn environmentsboth are wide bandwidth (relatively) so this may well be a part of it all.. 73, Bill N9DSJ --- In digitalradio@yahoogroups.com, kv9u [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Well, tonight my experimenter friend and I got taken out by QRN when it came to digital modes. We often run a Tuesday night sked. We started on MFSK16 and then tried to go to the ALE 141A mode and no luck with that or FAE. It just could not handle that much QRN. We then went back to MFSK and decided to try DEX11/FEC which I was hoping would work as well as it has been during quieter times. No luck. Hardly any print so dropped down to 8 baud and still no good. What a disappointment. Back to MFSK, but even that was getting more and more spotty with lots of hits and even long stretches of no print at all. The QRN levels were at or exceeding 50 microvolts (S9 on my calibrated S-meter). The signals seemed to have deteriorated as well and actually appeared to get much weaker. I don't think it was just the S/N ratio causing this but was a combination of weaker signals and stronger QRN. In fact, I got so desperate for any kind of mode that I switched to CW and eventually I moved up a bit and he realized that I was sending CW in his passband. Even then, the communications were extremely difficult with the CW tones being chopped up badly by the QRN which were at the serious popcorn level. Increasing filters did not really help much. It did increase the S/N ratio but the noise bursts tend to block the signal, making it more difficult to copy than with a wider filter. Of all the sound card modes we have now, I would like to hear some opinions of what you think is the best one for these kinds of conditions. 73, Rick, KV9U

1000/32 would blow all the QRN away, methinks John VE5MU Hi John, Yes, I agree, Olivia 1000/32 is excellent, it decodes at -13dB SNR. Olivia 500/16 is about 1dB better than 1000/32. Olivia 250/8 is about 2dB better than 1000/32. Here is a chart (courtesy of Patrick F6CTE) http://www.hflink.com/olivia/#formats I've noticed that going from PSK31 to Olivia 500/16 is like turning on a kilowatt amp. 73---Bonnie KQ6XA
