[digitalradio] Any AK or HI stations for JT65 - on 80 meters?

2009-12-30 Thread scollaysquarewriter
Yes, I'm asking a lot, but I need both HI and AK on 80, and I figure JT65 gives 
me my best short (been trying CW and psk and it ain't happening)

So do we have any HI or AK JT65 users whoi want to give it a try with MA?

Thanks

Re: [digitalradio] AFCW and keyed cw programs

2009-12-30 Thread DANNY DOUGLAS
NO- AFCW is NOT better, and if you use it, half your contacts with tell you 
they hear some audio getting into your keying.  I used it a few times, early 
on, and that is the results.  Remember, you also will be using SSB, versus 
continus wave keying signals, and thus outputting less RF signal.  Stay away 
from it, if at all possible.  I hadnt gotten that far with FLDIGI, but if it 
uses only AFCW, Im gone.

  Subject: [digitalradio] AFCW and keyed cw programs



  I have used a couple of programs for generating cw and have found that I
  prefer a 'direct' keyed method (MixW) compared to the AFCW that some programs
  use (FlDigi). Running Linux BTW here.

  Was wondering why some programs used direct keying of the radio and others 
  have gone the AFCW method? Is there something that I am missing here that
  makes AFCW a better choice or is it just a program writer/designer choice?

  Doing AFCW just doesn't 'sound' right to me when I am doing cw compared to
  the 'old' method.

  Are there any linux distroed programs that will do the direct keyed method? I
  haven't found any yet..:( MixW crashes when I try to run it in WINE here.

It is working pretty good already and all of those surface mount components
scare me a little.  I would need an electron microscope to make some of the
changes he suggests in the link.

Hi rick and andy

Maybe this is of interrest for you

http://www.frenning.dk/OZ1PIF_HOMEPAGE/SignaLinkUSB-mods.html

that guy made some mods to the signalink to improve linearity and other
things

maybe it helps to further improve winmor (or any other digital-mode)

Congratulations Rick, interesting to see the WINMOR improvments.  Is it
"better" than your Rigblaster ?

That's quite a sophisticated system you've made, very interesting. What is also 
interesting is that the list had only one European station, so these tiddly 
little sunspots are not really helping us to get across the pond.

Hello Andy,

 

   Although I might not be considered a new member, I did receive a
Tigertronics Signalink USB under the tree last week.  Quite a nice little
gift from Santa Claus, I tell you.  My WINMOR scores and speeds have gone up
considerably and my retries have gone down - not much more to ask for,
really.  It is quite an improvement over my Dell motherboard computer
soundcard.

 

   And the Signalink came with good instructions and was very easy to
install. The price at a hundred dollars was very reasonable for what you get
- free shipping.  It replaced a Rig Blaster (to be kept for Field Day) and I
am still using a Rig Talk for rig control.  So yea, I'm pretty happy.

 

Rick - KH2DF

I see a few new people have joined in the past few days, and they mentioned
they received new digital mode interfaces as gifts for Christmas. Welcome.
How about telling us what you received ? Anything we can help you with on
this maillist ?
