Good reading Trevor G8IIN It must be a great book indeed. I looked for it on amazon.com and all they had was a used copy priced at $92.70.! However you can get a new one from CQ for a lot less.

Good reading Trevor G8IIN Can anyone comment on the ARRL's HF Digital Handbook Fourth Edition or CQ's Digital Modes For All Occassions by ZL1BPU? I don't want to wait until Dayton (where I can thumb through these) to determine whether they have sufficient explanation of modulation and encoding schemes, design assumptions and the like. I'm concerned these may be more of a primer on how to operate using each mode. What I'm looking for is along the lines of the article Peter Martinez wrote for QEX back in 1999 on PSK theory, implementation and on-air performance. Anyone that has either of these books care to comment on their content? I'm also open to suggestions for other books or articles that are Martinez-esque in content and clarity.

Good morning, Dan, I just received this book for Chirstmas and find it very useful (in fact, I found this forum becase of the book). It appears to cover much of the basics and provides a nice overview of various modes, down to describing the method of transmission, charater sets, etc. I am not famailiar with the Peter Martinez article, so I can not compare it directly, but I do not believe that you would be able to develop a program to use these modes based on the information in the book (if that is your intent). However, I believe this book worthy of looking at. I have enjoyed reading it! Hope this helps. 73, Robert - N4IJS --- In digitalradio@yahoogroups.com, AE9K [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Can anyone comment on the ARRL's HF Digital Handbook Fourth Edition or CQ's Digital Modes For All Occassions by ZL1BPU?

Hello, The ARRL also sells a very nice book about Digital Signal Processing although at $45 it is a little expensive. I am just getting started reading it but if you want to know how all of this stuff we are doing in digital HF really works, this would be the book to read.
