Paul, Some programs are capable of sending a "Video ID" using Hell, so, you can read the ID as a text preamble from the waterfall. MultiPSK also does send a RS ID using some codes sent as an MFSK preamble. FDMDV now does use the RS ID too, to help "zero beating" on the spectrum center. 73,

Re: [digitalradio] How to choose Olivia tone/bandwidth parameters -- an idea

Interesting, but I believe it has already been done in MultiPSK with the RS ID codes sent in MFSK in the preamble. They seem to work well. I have used Video ID's and maybe your proposal is a bit more compact and readable that the usual video ID's. It should be tested out. I believe tha making

Even when I have nothing against DV, people have to recognize that it is not a QRP activity. I see quite a few signals I can never decode because they do not exceed the threshold. FDMDV is not PSK31. 73, Jose, CO2JA --- Jim Dear wrote: > Amen, and hopefully someday soon, come into the 21st

[digitalradio] How to choose Olivia tone/bandwidth parameters -- an idea

Here is an idea that Olivia developers might care to consider. People often remark that it's difficult to set up the right parameters when receiving Olivia signals. There are potentially eight possible tone settings to choose from (2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, 128 and 256 tones) and five possible bandw

Re: [digitalradio] Re: CW - last resort?

I have to concur with Charlie. I did not see anything negative in the MARS reappraisal of CW. In fact, it seemed bizarre and counterproductive to me when they decided to not only drop CW, but to prohibit its use on MARS channels some years back! I do agree that there are almost no new hams who
