[digitalradio] Experimental Multipsk "Mailbox" on-air
All, I have Multipsk's responder setup as an experimental pseudo mailbox on 3598.0 USB. The beacon is running in PAX2 mode and will accept connects in both PAX and PAX2 (Multipsk will switch modes automatically if you enable your RS ID). The responder also works in PSK63/250 ARQ and 300 baud HF Packet. It does not work like your typical PBBS, but it does allow stations to connect and read the messages that the user posts in the responder. The menu system is limited to "L" for LIST messages and "Rx" for READ message number x. To connect, switch Multipsk to PAX/PAX2 modes and make sure UNPROTO is clicked. Put your call in the SENDER box and set the DESTINATION to K2MO. Click CONNECT. The system will respond with a greeting and how to use the menu. All of these items are on left just above the waterfall. PAX is sensitive MFSK mode based on Olivia. Please give it try. Thanks, Tony -K2MO

[digitalradio] Olivia Modes/Flavors/Bandwidths/Speed Re: NEWBIE OLIVIA QUESTION
Hi Warren, When Olivia first became somewhat popular, it was "mode of the month"... there was a lot of experimentation with tones and bandwidths. Operators found advantages for various conditions and needs, with extremes of each flavor. The 2000/64 is quite good for interference rejection. We used it on 40 metres to work through strong shortwave AM broadcast stations that used to be around 7105-7125 kHz. You can QSO with Olivia 2000/64 signals in the midst of S9+ broadcast music interference, without using a narrow passband filter. Just tune your VFO dial to about 500Hz above the broadcast station's carrier frequency. Not many digi modes are capable of that level of performance, even with a lot of help from narrow filters. But, the 500Hz 16-tone flavor of Olivia ended up becoming popular... not really because of its technical superiority over the other flavors... it is mainly because it is the best compromise for weak signal and fast enough keyboarding speed, and still fits within the IARU regions' bandplans 500Hz bandwidth segments. Operating near where RTTY/PSK/other modes are normally found increases the chances for random QSOs and responses to CQs. 73 Bonnie VR2/KQ6XA > K5WGM Warren wrote: > has anyone tryied to push the max tones to 256, > like 2000/256?> What is the SNR on that I wonder? ./

Hi George, http://hflink.com/olivia The most common flavor of Olivia is "500/16" and for DXing, you can find it on one of the following USB VFO Dial frequencies: 7042.5 USB 7072.5 USB 10142.5 USB 14075.65 USB 14074.65 USB 14077.65 USB 18102.65 USB When Olivia first began, the 1000/32 flavor was much more common, and it is still fairly active in europe and some other parts of the world on these USB VFO Dial Frequencies: 14105.5 kHz USB 14106.5 kHz USB For more complete information on Olivia Frequencies and modes please see the website: http://hflink.com/olivia 73 Bonnie VR2/KQ6XA > AC5JV,GEORGE wrote: > MY QUESTION IS WHAT MODE IS USED THE MOST ? > LIKE 16/500 ?
