[digitalradio] Re: Technical Question: FDMDV
A 50 baud signal should have either a 50 Hz or a 100 Hz separation by my understanding. fdmdv modem is NOT OFDM. (would be called OFDMDV if it was) And even with ofdm, 50baud and 50hz will not work in real world. Try to googe ofdm and guard interval. What spacing would an ofdm systen with 50 baud and 1/3 guard interval, 2/3 symbol time have?
[digitalradio] Re: Technical Question: FDMDV / QPSK in PSK31
Modem description from Peter G3PLX (the modem author): --- The modem is based on a raised cosine shaped tone filter response which has the property of zero ISI and zero adjacent tone interference with no sidelobes. Half the channel filter is in the tx and the other half in the rx, so it's often called root raised cosine because the channel filters at each end have a response which is the square-root of the complete filter. ---
[digitalradio] Re: Technical Question: FDMDV / QPSK in PSK31
Yes, my note about bpsk/qpsk was nonsense. My understanding of theory is that baud equals the spread between tones in an OFDM or 2* baud in basic multi-tone signal. As someone noted, it is not ODFM. That does not fit with a 50 baud and 75 Hz separation. Compromise on total signal width and intersymbol interference. Vojtech
Re: [digitalradio] Remote Access Desktop, and remote digital operation
If you forward port 3389 on your firewall to that machine, it will probably work. There are other options: RealVNC which allows you to share the desktop rather than one person at a time (when you log in remotely into a Windows XP/Vista machine using Remote Desktop, the local console is blanked out to the Login screen). Someone else mentioned PCAnywhere but I haven't used that program in decades... I'd probably recommend http://logmein.com because it's able to transit firewalls with ease and allows desktop sharing. There is a free version that allows a pretty high amount of client machines to be accessible via the web interface. The software works on all platforms whether it's windows, linux, mac.. as long as it's a reasonably modern operating system.

Barry, I missed this email earlier, glad I found it. I really appreciate your feedback, I also received feedback from a Japanese station today and will make a few changes this weekend, after some more study. Andy. On Dec 3, 2007 10:50 PM, Barry Garratt [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi Andy, It's a nice idea but bear in mind that with a perfect scenario the maximum number of contacts per hour would only be 12. A full exchange with a CQ thrown in would take 5 minutes to complete. Also because the text boxes are limited to 13 characters in my case it is not possible to call CQ DRCC VE3CDX - it will get truncated to CQ DRCC VE3CD. It will work though if I run the text together such as CQDRCC VE3CDX. The grid square gets thrown away though. If you are proposing using EME protocol then operators can edit the text boxes quite easily but if there are a lot of stations and there is QRM then it will be very difficult to distinguish who is sending RO EM00 - especially if there are two stations in EM00. Or if someone is sending RO and their DRCC number. If you are proposing to use terrestrial protocol then you can make it work as long as the operators do a lot of editing of the text boxes. And are very careful about spacing of the characters. If an inadvertent space gets inserted then some information is going to get missed. Just my thoughts. 73, Barry VE3CDX/W7 DM26ic As a point if interest the JT65 modes do not allow use of the /W7. There is a definite set of prefixes that the JT65 modes recognize but /W7 isn't in the list. In fact /W or /K are also illegal characters. The /W7 is valid with the meteor scatter modes though - FSK441 and JT6M. If someone works me on JT65A on HF they may think I'm in VE3 unless they pay attention to the DM26 grid.

RE: [digitalradio] Remote Access Desktop, and remote digital operation
I have in the past used LogMeIn and Skype to remotely control my home station while running RTTY, PSK, and CW. Recently, a new free remote access service has become available: https://www.crossloop.com/landing.htm . This service installs a client on each participating PC, and uses the web to mediate access. Its performed well in basic tests, but I've not tried remote control with it. I'm considering its use as a support tool for DXLab. A remote control technique that I've not often heard mentioned is to place a webcam in your home station and focus it on your transceiver. This lets you monitor transceiver, amplifier, rotator,a nd power supply readouts that might not be available via your station control software.

[digitalradio] Remote Access Desktop, and remote digital operation
Hello John, The remote control through TCP/IP exists in Multipsk. I and Cesco (HB9TLK) have permitted to control a remote transceiver thanks to a TCP/IP link through which it is transported the sound (as Skipe) and the commands (RX/TX). For this, click on the button Mdem. Click on Help (RX/TX operations through signals exchanged with a TCP/IP server) for more details. You must start, on the remote transceiver side, either Gui_serv_Multipsk (HB9TLK) or Multidem (F6CTE). It is not as complete as what is presented by K7AGE (because it is limited to digital modes and you can't change the XCVR frequency), but it permits at least to make digital QSOs through the remote transceiver. For example it might be possible to send CQ DE F6CTE/VE5MU F6CTE/VE5MU +K if F6CTE controls the transceiver of VE5MU (in fact it is theoritical as it is strictly forbidden in France). Afterwards, F6CTE will be able to QSO with another Ham. However there is a random latency time (up to several seconds) due to Internet which remind you that you are not in direct... 73 Patrick - Original Message - From: John Bradley To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ; digitalradio@yahoogroups.com Sent: Friday, December 07, 2007 6:21 PM Subject: [multipsk] Remote Access Desktop, and remote digital operation I have been fooling around with Windows XP remote access desktop, and found that I can readily access a desktop on any computer , wired or wireless, connected to my router.

Re: [digitalradio] Remote Access Desktop, and remote digital operation
I have been doing this for years while I was working in the St. Louis area 70 miles from my station. I was using a program called PcAnyWhere With a rig control program for the FT-847 and a program for the TNC I had many a QSO remote. I understand what you are saying and sure it can be done.

Re: [digitalradio] Re: The sorry state of VHF/UHF Packet
Hi Ed, Ed Woodrick wrote: [snip] And in this entire thread, I'm surprised that I haven't seen any comments about D-STAR! 960 bps is built into every radio and the ID-1 can do 128 kbps. It's not AX.25, but it is packet digital data. It's pretty cool to put two ID-1s back to back and watch the amount of data that can be transfered. And since the ID-1 have Ethernet jacks, that means that you can do any Internet protocol that you want. Did not seem to be a reason to comment as the topic was packet. A group of us have used the 23cm ID-1s in the digital data mode (128kbps) in a local public service event just find the past two years. We used the access point and the user radios to allow operators at out stations to access a web server front end to the event database. Worked fine. In addition we used 2 ID-1s connected to an ethernet switch to serve as a relay for a site that did not have a good direct path. And of course tested two ID-1s as an Ethernet bridge which makes a nice 128 kbps backbone for say 9600 bps packet gateways. As an aside we also had a 9600 bps packet system up as a back up which also worked fine. 73, Tom n4zpt

Re: [digitalradio] Remote Access Desktop, and remote d igital operation
I control 3 PC's running pskmail servers via the internet using various flavours of vnc. .(X11vnc, RealVNC) It is only a matter of freeing the right ports in your firewall. Works for windows as well as Linux and Mac OS. There is even a Java web browser solution using port 5800+number_of_your-desktop. Best solution is to run a vnc connection via a SSH tunnel, whcih gives you a secure channel. When you first start a vnc desktop and start your apps after that you can disconnect from the desktop and come back to it later. 73, Rein PA0R -Ursprüngliche Nachricht- Von: digitalradio@yahoogroups.com Gesendet: 07.12.07 18:21:22 An: digitalradio@yahoogroups.com Betreff: [digitalradio] Remote Access Desktop, and remote digital operation I have been fooling around with Windows XP remote access desktop, and found that I can readily access a desktop on any computer , wired or wireless, connected to my router.
