Re: [digitalradio] ROS Advantage- mode ranking

2010-02-22 Thread Andy obrien
It seems unfair, especially because of all the hard work put in to
developing it, but I do not see it as any better than many other modes...
nothing that says gee...this is way better .  It is GOOD, and a mode to
add to our bag of tricks, but not a killer app.  The software interface is
very nicely done, Jose should be congratulated on this.  I'll place a few
modes in a robustness category for us all.

I'm not sure things tend to boil down that way, to be honest Andy,

Otherwise why so much RTTY on the bands? Even AX:25 is getting a bit 
long in the tooth now, but people still struggle on with it...
