Hi Les, I can't say that I have heard any thing what you describe throughout the day, at the moment (18:40) there is a lot of noise around the frequences that you mention, one hell of a burst just happened. I will keep an ear open tomorrow on the band & let you know if I hear anything. 73 Alan

Re: [digitalradio] Why Amateur EmComm?

That may be ok for you in the US & for the FCC but don't expect other amateurs to be very pleased when these un-attended automatic stations open up on the frequency that they are using. >As a license holder I can "inflict" almost anything I want on the >entire >amateur community within the scop

Are you telling me that if US Amateurs didn't setup an "amateur emmcom" then no-one would get a licence ? When was that introduced ? I worked US amateurs long before this was thought of. Anyway, even if it is the case, why should it be inflicted on the rest of the amateur community? This remin

The point is that it is "24/7 emergency comms" is not required or part of the amateur service. We over here have RAYNET which is not a un-attended automatic operation. >You are welcome to your opinion, but the reality is, that we already > have 24/7 access communications being provided on HF by

I entirely agree with you Roger, the "emergency service" is only an attempt to justify the automatic operations. In my opinion all amateur un-attended automatic operation should be banned world wide. The rest of the world's amateurs shouldn't have to suffer this sort of behaviour just for a few.

Frank, it is probably the wrong impedance headphones/speaker, what are they, 4,8 ,16 ohm & where are you pluging them into ? With my Signalink USB which has a transmit monitor socket it states in the handbook that you must use high impedance headphones or speaker. Alan G3VLQ - Original Mes

Hi John,thanks for the input. I think I might be confused, I thought Andy meant a second SPECJT Window. When I open WSJT it loads 3 windows, the Dos window,WSJT 6 & Specjt, the SPECJT window is a different waterfall to the one Andy displayed in his article. It is a vertical scrolling display wit

I entirely agree with you Joe. As far as I know we don't have automatic sub bands here but we still get stomped on by Pactor 3 popping up on top of QSOs. The "emergency traffic" tale is just used to justify the use of these infernal automatic stations. Alan G3VLQ - Original Message
