[digitalradio] K3UK gone over to the dark side...
OK, I did it. No, I have not become a Pactor III BBS but I have set up a 24/7 WINMOR Winlink 2000 server station with busy detect active at the server end preventing my response to a connect request if the frequency is busy.. This station will use 500 Hz Winmor. The first couple of stations connecting to the server (K3UK-5) all passed traffic to the CMS server OK.I need to study frequencies more and make sure that I eventually choose frequencies that make sense . During the next few days I will test on 0500 to 1400 on USB 3584.5 (dial 3583). 1400-1600 USB 7084.8 (dial 7083.3) 1600-0100 USB 28125 dial 2100-0500 USB 7084.8 (dial 7083.3) 10M is NOT a mistake. There are no servers on 10M and I hope to test this out some more. I may also try 6M. To use the server, you need RMS express software, which is free. You also need a soundcard (and radio!) I've tried PSKmail , ALE400, and 300 baud packet Pbbs over the past few months. PSKMAIL is VERY good but the Linux requirement for the server operations was more than i was willing to mess around with. So, I will give the WINMOR winlink server a try for the next 90 days and then evaluate how utilized it is. This will also give me a great opportunity to fully study the busy detect features that appear to work quite well at the moment.

[digitalradio] K3UK Sked Page Annual Fund Drive
The K3UK Sked pages at http://www.obriensweb.com/sked have had another very successful year. The SKCC and LOTW pages in particular have been very popular with occasions where we have had 100 hams simultaneously connected. We have also had favourable mention in QST and other ham publications. June is the time of year where I pay the annual bill. The site has very heavy usage . The sked pages generate an average of 20 gigs of posts per month. In April for example Total Hits were 2,047,126, Hits per Day averaged 68237 with a maximum of 118208. To maintain this service I pay for a higher than standard server with unlimited data use . In the past, many users have be generous enough to make a small donation towards the annual costs. Please consider making a donation to help the 2010-2011 costs. You can donate via paypal (see http://www.obriensweb.com/donate.html ) or via check to the call book address. Donations of course are completely voluntary and not required to use the service.

RE: [digitalradio] K3UK hogwash statement(s) or just a childish adult food fight
Toby MM0TOB Jose gave all Amateurs a gift in my view. My copy was free es latest beta version was free. My payment was improvement suggestions es reports of bugs to Jose. Man what a deal! Jose is not the enemy es never was, but better described as a hero in my book. Giving the hobby a bit of needed hope, shot-in-the-arm for our struggling brotherly existence. Personally, I am envious of José's hard earned telecommunications engineering knowledge, programming skills the end results of his effort. Bravo Jose, well done. [their isn't much room on the bands anyway.] sadly true. My employees, the FCC, are not going to grant Amateurs additional spectrum without some serious prodding by Amateurs es ARRL es powers that be. Amateurs' take a FCC back seat, we are not wealthy corrupt uncaring greedy corporate giants dolling out political favors in the form of greenbacks. My FCC eagerly sleeps with the Amateurs enemy. I believe the FCC see Amateurs as something similar as annoying gum on the bottom of their wingtip shoes on a hot summer day. The FCC could care less whether Amateurs continue to hang around or suddenly disappear tomorrow. The instant we disappear, I predict the FCC displaying glowing devilish dollar sign eyes feverishly scrambling , immediately begin to sell off our hard earned, well deserved, hard earned miniscule es now quite spectrum sliver. The FCC views Amateurs as a road block to multi millions (if not multi billions) to their coffer. Amateurs can rightfully claim they paid dues in full a long time back, the proverbial check was in the mail a century ago, many of Amateurs have more than paid their dues to get to your current Amateur status, could rightfully demand some change ($) back. If it's not to much to expect, perhaps some additional usable, practical spectrum. 1 and/or 2 things need to happen in our favor, (safe to say, longtime overdue) my voice the ARRL (a dues paying member es I donate to the ARRL spectrum fund) needs to locate their cajones es actively, aggressively acquire rightfully owed privileges, (many frequencies collecting dust as world communications move towards reliable satellite communications) those lonely neglected spectrum spots not being actively utilized es wasted. Aggressively hounding the International Telecommunication Union and/or International Amateur Radio Union if required. Frankly, the allocated channelized 60 meters is a slap in the face, amounts to nothing more then table scraps or leftovers. I believe Norway/Bangladesh are not rock bound es times have changed. The second option for favorable, revolution, nothing else will force changes to our genuine legitimate Amateur desires. I guess there is a third consideration, we sit on our proverbial asses *%$ing away whining our lives away, hopeful for a vy unlikely GOD like miracle while holding out both hands to see which fills first. rgrds Craig kq6i Peace, long-life, es gud DX! © P.S.

[digitalradio] K3UK WAS LOTW interattivo
K3UK WAS LOTW interattivo L'idea non è affatto male. Tutto gira attorno al WAS, il Worked All States, dove gli stati sono ovviamente quelli americani. Si sa che non è poi così difficile completare il WAS ma ci sono anche i maniaci che lo cercano per banda e modo. Ma alcuni stati sono difficili da trovare e poi tra propagazione e differenza di fuso orario, non sempre è facile colpire la stazione giusta. Allora K3UK ha preparato un sito dove chiunque (sia americani che cacciatori di stati) possono immettere un breve messaggio (come fosse un ANN del cluster). Ad esempio quello che vedo adesso sono: http://www.obriensweb.com/sked/ 06/21 03:53 WB7DE/L I need SD and WY on 20m 06/21 02:12 K4XZ 14.202 QRM on 14.199 thank 06/20 21:55 D44BS Need AL, DE, NV, ND and WY on RTTY Con questo metodo si può fissare uno sked o vedere chi c'è in linea e magari tentare un QSO.

[digitalradio] K3UK Sked Pages: Annual Fund Drive
Last year I placed a donate via Paypal icon on the K3UK Sked Pages for the month of May. This was because my annual bill from the Internet Service Provider is due in June. Many people contributed towards the annual costs, and I hope some of you will consider doing so this year. Use of the pages will always be free, but if you want to make a small donation please click on the Paypal donate icon when I place it there in the next day or so. The K3UK Sked Pages take advantage of my ISP's mySQL datbase options and ability to place PHP scripts on their server. The bandwidth for the site is unlimited which facilitates the occasions where we have 50-70 hams simultaneously connected, each refreshing a web page every 60 seconds . The unlimited bandwidth option requires a higher fee than normal ISP service. The daily average is 100,000 hits per day, 79,932 files per day, and 1040 visits per day. In the past 12 months 3,591,766,286 KBytes of information has been transferred ! My annual bill is around $300. Not a large fee, if users of the service consider a small donation, I should be able to recoup my expenses. Last year the bulk of the donations came from users of the SKCC pages, some Logger32 users also donated since I host Logger32's download service . I have informed Logger32 that I will not be providing space for their software effective 6/09 since I wanted to dedicate the storage space to sked page databases. There are now many new users via the LOTW sked page, hopefully some of those new users will consider a donation. Thanks Andy K3UK Thank you for you consideration
[digitalradio] K3UK Guide to setting up D700A with Digitraveler GPS
Looks like I am going to have make my own cables again. I dug up my old instructions on this, and thought I would post here. It is several years old, -- Andy K3UK www.obriensweb.com (QSL via N2RJ) Kenwood TM-D700A to Digitraveler Hook-Up :(Version 2) Here is an explanation of how to easily connect your Kenwood TM- D700A radio to the Radio Shack Digitraveler GPS Unit (PDA version). These GPS devices have been discontinued by Radio Shack but if in stock they are selling for $29.97, a very cheap way to get into APRS with GPS. They may be even cheaper on Ebay There are several links on the Internet that explain how to connect the Digitrveler and the TM-D700A, , the ones I read were frequently overly complicated, or left out important information. This is the easy, dummies guide Kenwood TM-D700A Radio Set-Up First, you will need to set up your Kenwood TM-D700A to allow APRS capability. The essential items are: Make sure TNC-APRS is indicated on your Kenwood TM-D700A display. (If not , use your manual to learn how to enable this feature). Make sure that Bcon is indicated on your Kenwood TM-D700A display. (If not , use your manual to learn how to enable this feature). Make sure that GPS is indicated on your Kenwood TM-D700A display. (If not , use your manual to learn how to enable this feature ). Also, make sure your GPS settings in the Kenwood TM-D700A's sub-menu are set at NMEA . The Kenwood manual explains how to do this. Make Sure that 1200 (packet baud rate) is indicated on your Kenwood TM-D700A display. (If not , use your manual to learn how to enable this feature ). 1200 is the default baud rate for the radio, so this should already be set. Connecting the Kenwood TM-D700A to the Digitraveler GPS Device. Cut the PDA connector off one of the cables supplied with the Digitraveler (the PDA version of the Digitraveler comes with THREE connector cables, so you can make three cables if you want!) This will leave you with a cable that has a RJ-45 connector at one end, and three bare wires at the other end. You will have a Red wire, a Black wire, and a Brown wire. Next, locate the cable that is supplied with the Kenwood TM-D700A. This is a long thin cable with a sub-miniature plug on one end , and three bare wires on the other end. The Kenwood supplied cable has wires that are white, red (may look orange to some eyes), and bare wire . I tried temporary connections of the above three wires to the GPS wires and twisted them together. This was a major mistake since the wires of the Kenwood radio are so thin and contain non-conducting fibers within the copper strands. The result was that I was not making a good electrical connection between the Kenwood and Digitraveler cables. So, to avoid the above ... first tin thoroughly, the Red, White, and ground wires on the Kenwood cable. Double check for good continuity by taking a multi-meter and connecting the probes to the bare ends of the Kenwood wires. Check a few places along the length of the bare wires that you stripped back. Now, connect the supplied Kenwood TM-D700A cable to the Digitraveler cable. as follows: Red wire on the Kenwood to the Brown wire of the Digitraveler White wire on the Kenwood to the Red wire of the Digitraveler Bare ground wire on Kenwood cable to the Black wire of the Digitraveler. That's it! At least as far as the connection goes. Getting power to the Digitraveler: The next step is getting power to the Digitraveler. You can simply insert 3 AAA batteries in the Digitraveler or an alternative 6 volt DC supply. Since I use mine in the car, I purchased a cigarette lighter device that drops the car's 12 volts down to 6 volts. I got mine from Radio Shack , it included a free coaxial power connector. I selected the Type B connector which fits the Digitraveler. You should take the cable you made up, plug in the RJ-45 connector in to the Digitraveler and the sub-miniature plug in to the back of you Kenwood TM-D700A in the jack marked GPS. With your radio on and power connected to the Digitraveler, you should see the Green LED on your Digitraveler light up. If it does not, re-check the connections you made on the cable and double check you have power supplied to the Digitraveler. If the green light is on, you're all set. The Digitraveler will need a few minutes to lock-on to the GPS satellites. My experience has been that it can take 2-3 minutes on the first occasion, sometimes longer if it is a very cloudy day. Make sure your Digitraveler is in a position that allows it to easily see the GPS satellites. It generally does not work inside your home or office. If outside make sure that there are no trees above your vehicle. Within a couple of minutes, you should notice the GPS display on your Kenwood TM-D700A begin to flash. If it flashes, Eureka ! That's it. You can press the Function button on your Kenwood, hold it down long enough (two beeps) to see the APRS menu. Select position and your Kenwood will

[digitalradio] K3UK Interactive : Changes
I have made a few changes to the K3UK Interactive spotting pages. The amount of ALE related traffic necessitated the creation of a dedicated ALE page. This ALE page is located at http://www.obriensweb.com/ale/ale.php . It may eventually move to another web site altogether, but for now it is here. This ALE traffic on my site has been full of fascinating ALE experimentation, check it out. The general digital mode interactive/spotting page remains at http://www.obriensweb.com/drsked/drsked.php . Use this for experimenting and arranging skeds for any digital modes , except JT65A and ALE which have their own pages. Other K3UK Interactive Pages are: SKCC Helper: http://www.obriensweb.com/skccsked/skccsked.php (CW related) Worked All States : http://www.obriensweb.com/was/was.php US Islands : http://www.obriensweb.com/usi/usi.php The ALE and General pages have links to all, I will pretty up the HTML table colors when I get a chance.

Walt DuBose wrote: As far as I can tell, there is a very large use of FEC which of course cuts down on the amount of user data throughput. Additionally, with 65 tones, I believe that the signal is wider than 500 Hz. Hi Hi. Yep!...it was meant for VHF and up... 1. In earlier versions the vertically-scrolling JT65 waterfall always displayed the frequency range 500-2500 Hz. The range has now been optionally expanded and made more flexible. By toggling a button labeled BW at the top of the SpecJT window you can change the displayed bandwidth to 4 kHz. In addition, you can offset the displayed region in 100 Hz steps by using buttons labeled and , and you can return the range to its default alignment with a button labeled |. This new feature provides two significant advantages. If your receiver provides a bandwidth greater than 2 kHz in USB mode, you can now display up to 4 kHz instantaneously (and with offsets, a total range of 5 kHz). The Kenwood TS-2000, for example, provides a 5 kHz bandwidth. The expanded range will make it easier to find other stations to work -- e.g. in contests, and at 1296 MHz where Doppler shifts are relatively large. In addition, extending the displayed spectrum to frequencies below 500 Hz is useful if you are using WSJT as a display tool when operating on CW. Also, some of the top guns on EME are using WSJT along with Software Defined Radios, on which, bandwidth is easier to adjust while operating. Does anyone know the actual transmit bandwidth of J65A? It would appear to be about 2 KHz wide. A snapshot of the waterfall might be used to document it, at least, roughly. The bottom line is that Joe Taylor, K1JT, has provided some interesting code based I suppose in part on KA9Q's work, and perhaps that of Dr. Clark, which combined with the corporate knowledge of this group might produce a very robust mode with the possibility of much higher throughput. However, I believe that a new mode based on this or similar work will be considerably wider than 500 kHz bandwidth. Would say 500 Hz...which I think is quite consistent with Shannon's statements 73, Walt/K5YFW 73, Jose, CO2JA __ V Conferencia Internacional de Energía Renovable, Ahorro de Energía y Educación Energética. 22 al 25 de mayo de 2007 Palacio de las Convenciones, Ciudad de la Habana, Cuba http://www.cujae.edu.cu/eventos/cier Participe en Universidad 2008. 11 al 15 de febrero del 2008.

Re: [digitalradio] K3UK On Understanding JT65A for HF.
Andrew O'Brien wrote: I'm getting many public and private emails from around the world about JT65A. Some seem to think I'm involved with the software and how it was to be used for HF. I'm no expert and have only about 40% of the software mastered at the moment. I have no more clue about HF applications than anyone else, other than I may have been somewhat responsible for getting the mode used more on HF. Keeping in mind that I am a total rookie, I thought I would attempt to explain the very basics for HF use and respond to some of the many emails I received today. JT65A is a mode within the WSJT software and , as Chris explained earlier today, is an MFSK type of signal. The software was designed for the very critical aspects of EME and meteor scatter applications. An essential element of EME and Meteor work is weak signal detection and careful timing of who is transmitting and who is receiving. Another aspect is that a series of brief messages are transmitted in a designated order, these essentially meet the accepted requirements for a valid contact. These is usually the exchange of call sign, grid square, and some confirmation of received signals. This would be the equivalent of perhaps a PSK31 contact where the accepted protocol was agreed that a valid QSO needed to include : Call sign, QTH, RST, and acknowledgement that the other station received the sent information. Somebody suddenly started using JT65A on HF about 2 weeks ago, and us JT65A ignorant hams simply detected a unknown mode on 20M. My only involvement was to obtain the software when someone suggested it might be JT65A and I confirmed the mystery signals were indeed JT65A. After I mentioned it here and had a QSO, a dozen or so hams jumped on the mode , spread the word to others, and the HF applications appear to have excited many hams. I have been amazed by the emails received today from different parts of the world all indicated their first HF JT65A QSO or reception. Early today, someone asked me just what can be done with this mode, is it a legitimate communication application. Again, I'm no expert, but I'll answer that with a big Y E S .You can do whatever you like with it , you could in fact have keyboard chats if you wanted to. The standard messages can be changed and you could type in how's the weather at your QTH, if you wanted to. It was not designed for this , but you can do it. Remember, it was not designed for HF work at all, so already someone has broken the mold . You can do likewise and use it in anyway you see fit (within your Government's regulations). It is no different than Olivia, Hell, ALE, or MT63, in that it just another mode. The user decides how it is best used. The one major difference is that the software's default setting is that your typical transmission lasts about 48 seconds and then you pause for 72 seconds (12 seconds to the top of the minute and then 60 seconds allocated to the responding station). From a practical perspective, this mode appears to have uses that lean toward the testing of propagation paths since the software always gives you the SNR of a received station. The software records data every minute, thus you can leave the software in monitor mode while away from the shack and get a sense of the propagation upon your return by looking at what was received, what the SNR was, and where the stations received were located. If you are a ham like me, you might like the challenge of making a contact but not really get in to the whole conversation thing. JT65A suits people like this by keeping to a minimum exchange and moving on. However, I will reiterate, you can use the mode to rag chew... but it would be slow . It could be more efficient than other faster modes though, since the throughput under poor conditions may be more reliable than most other modes. So, play with it. Monitor . Invent new useful ways to use it. It has been really great to see over 10 DXCC entities on HF JT65A in the week since we have been pushing it. I wonder who will be the first to get DXCC JT65A HF.? As many may know, JT65 was originally written by K1JT(?). A paper on JT65 can be seen at http://physics.princeton.edu/pulsar/JT65.pdf and http://physics.princeton.edu/pulsar/K1JT/WSJT_User_600.pdf As far as I can tell, there is a very large use of FEC which of course cuts down on the amount of user data throughput. Additionally, with 65 tones, I believe that the signal is wider than 500 Hz. Hi Hi. JT65A is generally used on 50 MHz. Thus JT65A on 6M is more like HF propagation...ot at least that on 14MHz and above. It would be wonderful if we could get K1JT to comment on the list for us. For those who are interested in reasons for wider bandwidths on HF, here is what K1JT says, reg. URL http://physics.princeton.edu/pulsar/K1JT/UpdateHistory.txt 1.
