Quit DigiPan, delete digipan.ini in \Windows, restart DigiPan, fill in
your Personal Data, and see if it decodes.

Leigh,
We are all using multimode rigs such as the IC-746, IC-706MKII, FT897,
etc, usin
0 is much more pleasant to use.
Some rigs can run rated SSB power on digital modes, but most of them can only
run half rated power at best, for both duty cycle and linearity reasons, so
increasing power a lot is not always an option to improve copy on the other end.

We need both - effective busy signal detectors to maximize performance between
automatic stations within a narrow subband, regulations to keep them there, and
regulations to prevent other minority interests from dominating at the expense
of the many.
Just my two cents worth...

and, being an amateur activity and not a commercial one, can afford to wait 1-2
minutes of a picture to complete. This leaves the rest of the band for
non-multimedia communications, which is as it should be with the limited amount
of spectrum available on HF.

With all due respect, (and you have considerable), it seems that some of the
