Hi Ken,
The equipment obviously needs to meet the rules of the sub band they are
operating in. For example, you can not operate phone modes in the
RTTY/Data sub bands. You can not operate RTTY/Data in the
phone/image/fax portions of the bands.
And you can not operate wide bandwidth modes such
Ken,
The Katrina After Action Report (AAR) brought Amateur Radio back into play,
based on it's effectiveness in the pandemonium following the hurricane.
By the end of 2006, MARS was facing de-funding and cessation of existence.
The dynamic was the need for Emergency Communications as demonst
Dave,
First of all, I will be the first to admit that I'm not up on all the
latest technology.
BUT, I have felt for a long time (34 years to be exact), that the heyday
of amateur radio emergency communications is long past.
If we look back to the 1930's and so, radio communications was rare a
Rick,
Do you really mean that anyone should be able to use whatever they
want? Are you really suggesting that fast scan, wideband TV should be
allowed on 20 meters? What about wideband FM?
Seems to me that bandwidth and co channel interference need to be
restricted, otherwise we will have ch
I am also concerned with the expensive proprietary
nature of the Pactor modes and the standardization on
it by the WL2K proponents.
Many ham PMBOs don't accept stations using Pactor 1.
Now, MARS is becoming less friendly to Pactor 1 users
as well.
Hams need to develop a BETTER replacement for Pa
Jeff,
Pactor and Pactor 2 both fit fairly well in a 500 Hz bandwidth. When
Pactor stations first connect (P, P2, or P3), they must be in the lowest
common denominator of Pactor. The machines negotiate with each other and
if it is determined that there is a P2 or a P3 station on both sides,

I am not completely sure of David's point, other than MARS is a Military
sponsored and channelized system intended for specific purposes which
are very different from amateur radio. As a Navy MARS op (N0YUI, now a
reissued ham call) in the mid 1960's and in the 1980's, as an AF MARS op

It is interesting , isn't it?
MARS doesn't hold contests.
MARS doesn't allow stations to intentionally interfere with other stations.
MARS doesn't promote awards for the number of contacts you can make in a
minute and not say anything.
MARS doesn't get their panties wadded up when information i
Hello all,
I spend a lot time it seems observing th prop net signals on 30 meters.
I have put in a second sound card and split the receive audio to both
cards at once, Mixw looks at the second sound card and gets a better
picture of activity than does Prop net. I note a number of overlapping

I was reading through these earlier postings and came across this one
and was a little bit baffled. How did you measure the throughput of
Olivia 250/2? From my testing it appears to be approx. 38wpm not 10.
Though that is clearly not as fast as RTTY. Olivia has never been

Dear Large Unpaid Research Department (LURD),
I need some help with AGW Packet Engine Pro. I installed the freeware version
of the AGW engine and I kept getting a "your soundcard does not support wave
files" error message. So I finally uninstalled it. Today I installed the AGW

What I found even more interesting than the article on QRZ was the comments on
it. To a "T" everyone commented that it was good that WINLINK2000 was now
being used on MARS freqs instead of the amateur bands.
Not having much experience with Pactor and WL2K, I wasn't aware that there were
