[digitalradio] Re: Amazing ! Multispsk with SDR 48 Khz RS ID

Congrats on making this work, Andy!

Both waterfalls look entirely usable... how did you finally balance them out?

 While I am not to first to test this, I am happy to have  MY first
 success with Multipsk, an SDR, and RS ID.  Patrick should get a Nobel
 prize for this, it will make digital mode hunting even better .
 
 
 It works as advertised. Phil KA1GMN and I did a test.  I placed my
 received on 18090 and Phil sent an RS ID (he was CQing) on 18100  As
 you will see in http://www.obriensweb.com/phil.jpg  , the wider (48
 khz wide) Multipsk  detected his RS ID , sent an audible beep to my
 PC , and alerted me visually that an RS ID was detected up 10 kHz.
 This could be very useful for bands like 20M where there is quite a
 wide range of frequencies for the digital modes (14065 to 14109).
 
 I finally did this by stealing my son's PC , just to test.  My Pentium
 2.3 single core CPU would not handle the load, but my son's Pentium
 single core 2.7 CPU did so, easily.  See
 http://www.obriensweb.com/multipsksystem.jpg  for system info.
 
 
 Thank you Patrick.  At the moment, Multipsk is the only application
 that lets you feed wide I/Q data to it so that you can decode signals
 wider than the normal audio bandwidth,

[digitalradio] Re: New version of Mixw

2009-06-17 Thread jdami123
One interesting issue I found with MixW (albeit for a narrow spectrum of users) 
is it will lock up your XP machine when used with the ICOM PCR-2500 software or 
with TrunkPCR.  I actually like MixW, but can't use it with that unit.

My favorites so far are MultiPSK (sooo many modes, and they work!) and the 
slick HRD app, DM 780.

 Hello Buddy,
 
  UGLY looking program.  I don't even like to look at it.  HRD is nice, but

 PSE, say that you don't like the interface and ignore this program. No need 
 to be excessive.

  My 2 cents worth:
 
  I have tried them all and still prefer MixW.   It is a simple program yet
  does everything I want it to.  It is neat and orderly in layout and
  appearance.   It will use my RAC CD, a lot of  logging programs won't.  I
  just click on a callsign and the logging info fills right in.
  I've tried MultiPSK, and to be honest, it does a lot, but gawd, that is 
  one
  UGLY looking program.  I don't even like to look at it.  HRD is nice, but 
  I
  don't need all those moving screens and options.. again, it is just too
  busy for me.  I don't need a computer program to change frequency for 
  me,
  I can turn the knob myself.  I don't need  a program that is packed with a
  bunch of strange modes that are rarely, if ever,  used.  Fldigi won't run 
  on
  my computer, but I notice a few things that would keep it from being my 
  main
  digital/logging program.
  We all have our likes and dislikes, none of us are right or wrong, just
  different in what we like to use.  Since MixW is not free, that alone will
  drive some guys to HRD, etc.MixW's attraction for me is it's simple, 
  and
  does it all.
  If the authors of MixW decide to abandon it,  I'd keep using it unless
  another progarm came up with something really great that would entice me 
  to
  change.
