They don't write the test, they don't give the test and they don't score the

Well yes...speed and robustness. Something down aroung -5 to -10 dB SNR on a poor CCIR channel and speeds that would produce 3-5 printed pages of information a minute. Pages Per Minute (PPM) is now how

and I are pretty much in agreement. We must..."focus more on what is

If 4 users are sharing the channel, then each will see a quarter of
the channel's capacity (less, actually, due to the overhead from the
channel-sharing part of the protocol). If a single user requires all
of the channel's bandwidth to achieve the performance requirements,
then the channel
Dear Walt and others,
Your discussion about possible development of 16kHz modes has nothing
to do with the subject line of this discussion: ARQ soundcard Modem in
PCALE with FTP - (within a 3kHz channel).
I want to point out, that the working PCALE soundcard ARQ modem
system already exists, it

Bonnie,
If PCALE is made to the Fed-STD then it cannot produce the required throughput not will it be as robust as I stated.
The ALE standard (FS-1045) IS NOT NEW and I have used FS-1052 and FS-1045 on government
Hi Walt,
I don't agree with your comments as to FS-1052 DLP not providing enough
throughput or robust performance to meet the needs of FEMA. From my
experience with the protocol on some very poor channel conditions, the
protocol is extremely robust, of course you do at times need to give up
Hi Walt,
We can discuss the technical aspects of this stuff until the cows come, I
enjoy such conversations, I enjoy coding this stuff as well. However what
needs to kept in mind Walt is what can now be accomplished within a 3Khz
or less channel per FCC Part 97 rules for Amateur Radio
I actually enjoy driving on the Autobahn where
there are no speed limitsDepending on the vehicle I am driving.. I cruise at
150 - 200Kph which is within my comfort zone for driving.stick to Lane 2 so
that those more skilled than I can pass at 280 -300 Kph in Lane 1... Ironic

Something about this has been puzzling me.
The FCC, when specifically asked [1] about mixed information content
picture. and text with digital modulation, chose to respond by proposing
to allow AM and FM (A1C and F2C) image modes currently in use. The
NPRM says that they did this to contribute
Hi Walt,
I am not biting Walt. I know the intent and purpose of Part 97 and
attempt to abide by it. I am well aware of how vague it is with respect
to certain things and why and how specific it is regarding other things
and why and I am not about to take the time to debate the idiosycrasies
I agree 100 percent. Few if any amateurs are going to ever need any such
communications, except during an emergency. If we don't need it, we are not
going to spend money on it, and we are not going to invite its use on OUR
bands when there is no emergency. If they need and want a trained corps
The reason that the ARRL will be the primary organization that develops
a band plan is precisely that they are the defacto U.S. National Amateur
Radio Organization. They do represent the full gamut of competing ham
interests. Even those who are not members.

Walt,
Did you get a chance to try out SCAMP when it was temporarily available
as an experimental mode?
The average computer of today, 1 GHz, can handle some pretty strong ARQ
decoding. The concept of not being able to download the next block
while decoding seems to me to be an obsolete

Maybe you should look at in the perspective of the
FCC trying to drag the ARRL into the present, and force it to look toward the
future.
As far as anarchy goes, look at HR1491 (Authorized

I too believe that the ARRL needs to come forward

I think you are making way too much of all this. The ARRL has a
perfectly acceptable web area and they would be pleased to publish any
new protocols. It seems very unlikely there are any competent authors
of programs who have not written down the most rudimentary information
