Walt,
I never knew this strong a signal was equated to S9. Having recently
done some Rig S-meter comparisons, with rigs set to the 50 microvolt
standard, a 100,000 uV signal would be just a bit over S9+60 on my
Kenwood TS-440SAT. My Ten Tec Argonaut V only goes to S9 +40 db at
10,000 uV and my
In bygone days, S-9 was to be produced by a 100,000 microvolt carrier at the
receiver's antenna terminal with the RF gain control at min (attenuation?) and
AGC on.
Also, the S unit was to equal 5.5 dB.

the late 1970's

S-meters are not just logarithmic indicators, they also indicate the
gain reduction being applied in the RF/IF chain. As I said in a
previous post, it is an indicator of the reduction in gain, i.e. how
much of an attenuator is being inserted. By inserting this attenuator

Jon,
The puporse of ARES or any other emergency/disaster communications unit should
make points of contact with potential users of their service before its
requirement...i.e. making contact with the local law enforcement, fire
department, city/county government officials or state officials and
Bill...THanks for your input on this matter. I did want to make
another post on this subjuect just in case someone else ever comes
across this problem.
I did finally get a hold of Skip Teller, KH6TY (DigiPan) and he
mentioned that some sound cards have this offset problem. In the

If everyone did switch over to HF digital equipment and abandoned their
analog mode equipment, it is very likely that this would drastically
reduce our overall ability to communicate.
This is particularly true of voice communications. I don't think the
science supports the ability to have digit
Hello Andrea,
The servers available in EU at the moment are PI4TUE (101048 kHz) and SM0RWO.
The server at PA0N is not
available at the moment, the OMNI VI has a faulty PLL board so we have no trx
there at the moment (donations welcome :)
The frequencies on the wiki are Center frequencies, i.e
But my point is that if the signal strengths were being added
linearly, you should see the S-meter jump to 44 over S9.
However, you are very aptly making my point. The overall gain of the
receiver is reduced to accomodate the strongest signal which also
reduces the output of the lower signal by t

Dear Per,i have tried in this day the live cd for PSKMail and it's working very well on my pc. I also test
gMFSK and i'ts a nice and "well done" program. I have tried a lot to connect a PskMail Server but without outcome.. I do monitoring on 10148 khz Usb .. and i dont hear no PSK63 signals, al
