Re: [digitalradio] Digitalradio SKED/ spotting page
Yes, and when i use the page on my cellphone (Windows Mobile 5.0 pda), it re-sends my information over and over again. The only thing i can do (unless someone has a solution) is (1) send my info, (2) go to another website, any website, (3) return to the spotting page and don't enter any more info. orrin wn1z in NE California On 11/4/07, Andrew O'Brien [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Refresh is automatic.

Re: [digitalradio] Re: digital modes from under the ground ?
Bonnie or anyone else, any suggestions for a 7MHz rubber duck type antenna? I think i could mount one on my FT-817 -- i believe the HF output can be switched to the front-panel connector. Or a recipe for a homebrew duck.

Definitely agree with that. mfsk-16 is the only digital mode i like to use for skeds (for rag-chewing on a sked that is). For random contacts, psk-31 is just fine. But if i want nearly error-free copy during skeds, mfsk-16 is my choice. I've never had much luck with ALE, but am going to keep trying ALE several hours more (on separate days) before i give it up. I gave up on PSK-125 pskmail for email. For sending email on HF my choice is still Pactor-1. (I don't have the modems for Pactor-2 or -3.) orrin wn1z in northeast Calif. not on the Left Coast
[digitalradio] digital radio interactive sked page
Just curious, is anyone on this list using the Digital Radio Interactive Sked Page (http://www.obriensweb.com/drsked/drsked.php) for anything other than HFLINKNET / ALE stuff? Or has anyone seen any activity there lately for other than ALE testing? Just checking. Orrin wn1z in northeast Calif. not on the Left Coast
Re: [digitalradio] Windows 98 doesn't decode psk31
I have a Win98SE machine with soundcard and it does PSK-31 just fine. I believe it works with DigiPan 2.0, and it did work 2 yrs ago with the then-current version of MultiPSK. This is a 150MHz Pentium-1 machine, ancient. (Of course i probably wouldn't want to try to run the latest version of WSJT on it.) orrin wn1z northeast Calif. not on the Left Coast
[digitalradio] digitalradio php page
Andrew, did you lengthen the refresh time on that page? I haven't actually timed it, but i seem to be able to type in enuf text (on my cellphone) now, before it refreshes. I was doing that last night. One person was saying that 20 meters was dead (9pm Thursday evening California time) but i worked BP40 (from my CN90) 2000 miles Anchorage AK and an 8-station, this with bpsk31. The numbers were something like: SFI 69 A 22 K 2 ... which certainly isn't ideal. However did not hear much on 14076 jt65a. I called CQ and got a response from AF6AS (500 miles from me) but he was -22dB and the contact died. Orrin wn1z northeast Calif.
Re: [digitalradio] Meteor Scatter Basics
OK and what is the freq for 6m WSJT? orrin wn1z On 5/22/07, Tony [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I was under the mistaken impression that MS is used only during the big meteor storms. Definitely worth looking into now. Orrin WN1Z Orrin, It's a lot of fun to work VHF during the major showers. The ionized trails will usually last long enough to get a few words in on SSB. The daily sporadics are more challenging since the reflections are much shorter and weaker. The six meter band is a good place to start and it doesn't hurt to operate during the AM peak.

Meanwhile i'm listening to WWV on 10 Mhz. I type in the new time, but don't hit the ENTER key until wwv beeps on the minute. Then, to make sure i did it right, i go into the Windoze settings to see the simulated analog clock, watch the second-hand move and make sure it hits straight up when wwv beeps the minute again.

Re: [digitalradio] Re: Deep Search on JT-65a
This is very good information -- turn off the DeepSearch function. I certainly don't want the software to make a guess like that.

[digitalradio] verify callsign?
Howdy folks, I had my first JT65A qso with wb6mlc, just maybe 200 miles distant, no challenge there ... we often talk on SSB ... then Sunday with EA7DUD in Spain. I normally don't even try to work Europe, too much competition with other stations stateside. Personally i detest contesting. Can anyone else state they have QSOd with EA7DUD and they believe this is not someone just pirating that callsign? I know this sounds suspicious and wacky, but i know Bill k6acj also is wondering about some of this DX. There is no insult intended here, just looking for some assurance please ... I also heard 7L4IOU, Japan, and the distance from here in California is maybe 5000 miles to Japan and not quite 6000 to Spain, so Spain is believable. Orrin wn1z
