Check out aprpack Yahoo group...they are doing APRS over PSK63 with CRC for keyboarding, self-spotting, and messaging. There is also work going on on Selcal and ALE on the HFLink group. I am interested in making gMFSK work with the APRS-CRC layer, so we can experiment with PSK63 and Olivia as

[digitalradio] JNOS and Linux for the digital ham

2005-06-15 Thread Rick Williams
Hi Bill, I probably should have said a relatively easy system:) After all these years NOS stuff never seemed to get any traction. And it is nearly impossible for the average person to figure it out. I know that I have not been able to understand much of it myself and I am fairly computer literate
