I entered the call(s) in the config. Unplugged my interface and listened to the output of my souncard while I pushed the "CQ" button in ROS. The text "CQ CQ de N1SZ N1SZ pse k " appeared in the TX window and when I pushed PTT... it worked...

That could well be the case. Same perhaps for some of his other actions in the past, present and most likely in future.

[digitalradio] Re: ROS are sending data from your PC - banned call list
Dave. I tried that , transmitting into dummy load yesterday with John's call and I told John that it did work on my computer. John then replied that he thought once the computer had been on the banned list it was useless for ever for running ROS ( some in the registry perhaps ) We then talked about testing his xyl's computer computer. We all know now what happened there. As I thought and expressed here a few times, even Jose would understand it to be insane to have programs distributed with built-in banned lists. My procedure is as follows. Rename old ROS directory make new directory ROS. download new version ( almost daily operation but that is OK past download in ROS directory extract program zipped file use Install Script create new short cut paste new shortcut click shortcut make sure waterfall is turned on for new installations check audio level settings of selected sound cards. Like to see some noise on waterfall. make sure program gets audio from receiver, WEBSDR or other audio source. no configuration ( no Call for cluster problem ) Has always worked here without a any problem. Program locates always the correct sound card 73 Rein W6SZ --- In digitalradio@yahoogroups.com, Dave Wright wrote: > > So, did you actually transmit using another op's call sign?

Re: [digitalradio] Re: ROS are sending data from your PC - banned call list
So, did you actually transmit using another op's call sign? Or, did you just plug them in and say that it works? As I recall, the non-grata ops could enter their calls during setup but it would not transmit. So, unless G4ILO, K5OKC, N1SZ or I (or other banned ops) actually decide to try to transmit, it doesn't mean a thing.

[digitalradio] Re: ROS are sending data from your PC
I had been successfully ignoring ROS for a few months having been banned right from the start but I admit that ignoring it has largely been achieved by staying off the digital sub bands altogether because it made me so angry every time I listened for Olivia and heard this rogue mode on the air. The only way different digital modes have been able to coexist without regulation has been because in the past both the developers and the users of new modes have been sensitive to and respectful of the rights and wishes of users of old ones. This simply doesn't work if someone decides not to play by the rules, and it isn't helped by what I suppose are mostly the current generation of new hams who, with the arrogance of youth consider those who voice objections to be no more than a bunch of old farts who can be ignored and vilified. The existence of ROS has spoiled digital operation for me and the only digital modes you will find me on now are PSK and APRS, both of which have mercifully escaped encroachment by this wretched invention.

RE: [digitalradio] ROS are sending data from your PC
Dave, I have no answer here for what you are saying. It is clear, I don't see it that way I tried to get info from the ARRL not directly related to the ROS matter. Do not want to discuss that here further. I am happy to address it off the reflector, you could well be able to help me with the info I am looking for. John is familiar with the legality issue by now, I think. Yes indeed IARU is for sure one of those organizations. There are others though closer to Jose http://www.iaru.org/ http://www.iaru.org/iaru-soc.html http://www.ure.es/ Amateur Radio newsletters in US and abroad. I brought up the DSTAR case, ( we are not into that, no reaction here ) and got an invitation to from the list moderator to join their Yahoo listthis morning.

RE: [digitalradio] ROS are sending data from your PC
Hi John, Are you addressing this to me? How am I the spokesman of Jose? What more can I say about Jose to please some of you. What answer do you expect from me John? What I do say though is this: His not being an amateur A severe language problem. Little or none social behavior did contribute significantly to this circus. If you classify that as being a spokesman, OK what can I write more. I am still waiting for someone telling me that he has proof that he is on such a list. Using a recent version. Don't blame anyone saying "Just the fact that there ever was such a list is enough etc etc" At the same time I can not understand that hundreds of people using ROS now ignore this if they knew about such a list. This very point really goes beyond my capacities. I am addressing here non US amateurs in particular.

Hi Jeff, Thanks for your contribution, No problem and the truth. Could you inform me about the hardcoding of the calling frequencies. Does he eliminate the VFO setting of your transmitter?

This is my first -- and, I hope, my last -- post on ROS. I've been quiet because it became apparent to me quite early in the game that the software was spread-spectrum within the meaning of the term as the FCC understands it. The author demonstrated quite early in the game that he wasn't a ham and didn't understand the sense of community that we hams, as a group, demonstrate and display more often than not; he also demonstrated through his blacklisting that he is vindictive, which is not conducive to his establishing a record of trust. Now it has been shown beyond contradiction that his software posts notices on one or more DX Cluster nodes; I haven't installed the software and so can't see where the controls, if any, for this behavior are located, but I do see users indicating that there are no controls for the reporting behavior. That's inexcusable, if it's true. Likewise, if this reporting behavior isn't advertised in the documentation, *that* is inexcusable as well. All this is in addition to the HF beaconing behavior, the very high ratio of bandwidth to baudrate, and other technical objections. I wash my hands of ROS, both the software and its author. I'll have naught to do with it. But this is an appropriate forum for discussion of the software, especially by amateur radio operators in venues where its use is legal, so I won't voice any objections to that. I may unsubscribe if things get too silly and Andy doesn't throttle them; that's just voting with my feet. -- Mike Andrews, W5EGO mi...@mikea.ath.cx Tired old sysadmin

Re: [digitalradio] ROS are sending data from your PC
Given the author's animosity toward certain hams, the fact that he stated he was doing a persona non grata list, the fact that he DID do a list, and his propensity to be untruthful in general, I would be VERY hesitant to install his software on my computer! Even more so if I was on his list! It's been established that his software is doing things he isn't telling people about ( the call reporting ) and that can't be turned off! He isn't a ham! He doesn't understand the ham community and doesn't make any effort to do so. He's deliberately hardcoding calling frequencies into his software and in some cases multiple frequencies in crowded bands. I don't know about YOU, but to me this ALL adds up to a VERY BAD picture. As for the 3000 people that are being quiet on this list, how much of that is that they don't want to be singled out by a psychotic non-ham software author for inclusion in his list?? His software is illegal for a significant portion of the ham community to use below 1.5m, yet he insists on pushing that use of his software? Sorry, I was interested initially in ROS, but given all of the above and all the rest that hasn't been stated in this msg, I'll probably be the last one to try his software AFTER everyone else has survived! 73, Jeff - Original Message - From: rein...@ix.netcom.com John, Why not give it a serious try?

Re: [digitalradio] ROS are sending data from your PC
The discussion of the persona-non-grata list was started here: http://forums.qrz.com/showthread.php?t=239742&highlight=ros. It starts getting pretty interesting around page 4 or 5. In March, the list consisted of the following calls: * K5OKC,N1SZ,G4ILO,W4PC,W9IQ,KY5U,KQ6XA,G0GQK,N3RQ,N1SZ,KC4ARAN, GW7AAV,WA1ZMS,K3DCWyep, N1SZ got the good double whammy probation. *Since that time, Jose has taken steps to further hide the list in the code by changing his programming environment, making it much harder to decompile the list. I'm not sure anyone has tried recently.

RE: [digitalradio] ROS are sending data from your PC
US operators that avoid ROS because it is illegal in the US are not zombies, they are simply abiding by the regulations that govern amateur radio operation here and thus protecting their licenses. The immature antics of Jose Ros are most likely the result of an over-driven ego untempered by any understanding of the social aspects of amateur radio. Hopefully, some wise Elmer will take Jose in hand and help him grow up to more constructively apply his obvious technical talent. 73, Dave, AA6YQ -Original Message- From: digitalradio@yahoogroups.com [mailto:digitalra...@yahoogroups.com]on Behalf Of rein...@ix.netcom.com Sent: Friday, July 09, 2010 2:59 PM To: digitalradio@yahoogroups.com Subject: RE: [digitalradio] ROS are sending data from your PC John, Why not give it a serious try?

Re: [digitalradio] ROS are sending data from your PC
HI John Let me make a few things clear. First and foremost I was rejected as a subscriber of the official list! At the time I was not aware of the some 150 messages on the QRZ.com about ROS, its author and the rest. A big eyeopener! If Jose has calls hardwired in a list prohibiting amateurs using his software and want to promote his package ( and he does ) he can only be classified as insane. The biggest problem between Jose and myself is about the difference between the FCC and the ARRL. If I send him info about other modes he translates that as being anti ROS, He is crazy but it really does not matter too much for me. >From the beginning I thought that the author's lack of a few basic human properties was creating a lot of misunderstanding and I tried to defend Jose. In that process I was warned by unnamed people with official functions in the US ( like publishing a radio amateur newsletter and the IARU ) to stay away form this ROS mass because it would only cause me problems OK you and I exchanged emails about being prohibited using the ROS software I tried to help you, you thanked me but did not answer my final question! So I know just about every thingthere is to know about this going all the way back to the story about the agent 3040 I think the number was and Tim N3... We, as radio amateurs are using hardware and software and what have you produced by others that most of the time we know little or nothing about It does not really make much difference for me whether I know much about those that had something to do with what I am playing with. Do I like Bill Gates? Some engineer in Japan?

Re: [digitalradio] Re: ROS are sending data from your PC
Hi Dave, Thanks. From here you come over as a thoughtful person and you seem to be following where this is going. I am not happy that I can not use ROS modem. This is a fact. The way the ruling came over via the ARRL is mot correct ( IMHO ) I have been trying to discuss this here and at other places and get being attacked by a particular individual who indicated at several occasions that he does not fall under the jurisdiction of the FCC or any law in the US ( He has to do with the Postal Office in the UK ) He is also VERY happy about that fact and others. ( Perhaps deported out of US in the past? ) I really do not care whether he is happy or not. I have been following over the last week or so, US calls that are showing up at the HAMSPOTS web site. In that process I have come to the conclusion that some of those calls are ( I should say WERE of amateurs that have passed on, but the calls have nor been removed for the FCC raster ) I found 2 or 3 cases of that type. Others of that collection are held by people of,lets say advanced age. ( in their ninety's ) I am not yoking! So something is going on with these calls. I am told now how my call and others showed up as plotters. Fine Now like to learn how US calls show up there, as transmitting ROS. Can they artificially be injected or not? Are those calls being used in real ROS transmissions? How is it that those calls have the US State indicated while non US calls have not the country or what have you indicated. Why do I want to know this? Well I like to know whether the use of ROS modem in on the increase among US amateurs. Are these people aware of the legal ROS status or not. These answers interest me. I hope Dave, you engage in this project ( or conversation ) 73 Rein W6SZ -Original Message- >From: DaveNF2G >Sent: Jul 9, 2010 11:41 AM >To: digitalradio@yahoogroups.com >Subject: [digitalradio] Re: ROS are sending data from your PC > >> extremely wicked; "nefarious schemes"; "a villainous plot"; "a villainous >> band of thieves" > >LOL.

Hi Russell, OK. I do not know whether you are active with WSPR,, but there I have also seen at times multiple decodes. One station call, same time ,different indicated frequencies and S/N's I have not seen it recently and in those cases is was not due to overloading on my side ( receiver ) but something ( distortion ) that was produced on the transmitter side ( it happened every time the station made a transmission ) Never really looked further because of certain sensitivity issues that could arise asking questions. I think one should always try to prevent overdriving the transmitter and if detection is done using FFT's, distortion becomes even a bigger no no. 73 Rein W6SZ -Original Message- >From: Russell Blair >Sent: Jul 9, 2010 8:20 AM >To: digitalradio@yahoogroups.com >Subject: Re: [digitalradio] JT65-HF on 14076 > >Tnx Rein, I'm going to keep an eye this and see if it happens agian, that was >the first time I saw it. > >Russ NC5O > 1- Whoever said nothing is impossible never tried slamming a revolving door! >2- A government big enough to give you everything you want, is strong enough >to >take everything you have. > >- Gerald Ford > > >" IN GOD WE TRUST " > > >Russell Blair (NC5O) >Skype-Russell.Blair >Hell Field #300 >DRCC #55 >30m Dig-group #693 > > > > > >From: "rein...@ix.netcom.com" >To: digitalradio@yahoogroups.com >Sent: Thu, July 8, 2010 11:37:12 PM >Subject: Re: [digitalradio] JT65-HF on 14076 > > > >This is probably a case of the transmitting station over driving >(too much audio drive into transmitter ) > >Or perhaps the transmitting station is over loading your receiver. > >I have no idea whether you should get 2 decodes or not in this situation or >mot >. > >In just straight WSJT65A I have often seen decoded signals with very >different S/N ratio's indicated, such as + 6 and - 25 dB. > >73 Rein W6SZ > >-Original Message- >>From: Russell Blair >>Sent: Jul 9, 2010 1:23 AM >>To: Digital Radio >>Subject: [digitalradio] JT65-HF on 14076 >> >>I am seeing 2 Images of N4CE one at -554 and Distorded and the other at +175 >>witch lookes fine but I'm only getting one decode.

[digitalradio] Re: JT65-HF on 14076
I don't know the reason either. Using JT65-HF I've found that strong signals clear up once you put a check in the ( Smooth ) box and or you can also try adjusting the ( Color) (Brightness) and ( Contrast) Eddy N 4 A B N --- In digitalradio@yahoogroups.com, Russell Blair wrote: > > I am seeing 2 Images of N4CE one at -554 and Distorded and the other at +175 > witch lookes fine but I'm only getting one decode.

Tnx Rein, I'm going to keep an eye this and see if it happens agian, that was the first time I saw it.

Re: [digitalradio] ROS are sending data from your PC
Looks like this is a DX Cluster server available on the Internet running a software package called DXSpider. http://wiki.dxcluster.org/index.php/Main_Page Doesn't seem to be nefarious at all to me. Telnet in, give your callsign and it'll start giving you info. I have no clue how to read this but there it is.
