Cortland, I would imagine the mode works well for passing MARS traffic. Contestia seems to have about the same wpm rate in the 8 tone / 1k configuration and throughput seems to be better. There's no latency either so it might be worth a try. Not much use for wide high-speed chat modes on the h

[digitalradio] Unintended Consequences: Recent FCC Order on Repeaters

2009-03-24 Thread expeditionradio
The FCC recently posted on Order clarifying what it believes a repeater is. Due to the "law of unintended consequences", while this recent FCC order closes one small perceived loophole for D-Star and P-25 signals, it simultaneously (pun intended) affirms something else... the existence of an

2009-03-24 Thread Rick W
When the FCC uses the term "of the same modulation type," that would be the first symbol of the ITU Emission Classification system or the "main carrier modulation." Thus, if you are using SSB as the primary modulation then you are limited to what is considered a communications quality signal. A

Excellent answers! Thank you VERY much! I've sent off an email to the FCC and will call ARRL to see if they confirm the information provided. Which I suspect they will. Sweet. Made me a little nervous doing 2k wide QSOs, so I stopped until I was certain. I was eager to try wider ones and c

I made a typo error in the previous message. I should have said: For example, on 20 meters, hams in USA can legally transmit a 150kHz bandwidth data signal (14000kHz to 14150kHz). 73 Bonnie KQ6XA
