Hello, Rick. You couldn't be more correct.  This was especially true with the advent of PSK.  PACTOR I went "BYE-BYE" in short order.  I did find that even with the addition of the faster PSK speeds, that most everyone remains with Vanilla PSK31.  Apparently, most Hams can't type worth

Doc, Pactor, being the general term for three specific sub modes, can mean any of the three or it can mean Pactor 1. Since Pactor uses a backward compatible calling technique, if you don't have the new modes, the P2 and P3 units would normally default to the Pactor 1 level. It is true that

Is then the protocol that unless one specifies Pactor II or Pactor III that one always means Pactor I? That would be helpful for me to know.  I was wondering if I told someone Pactor that they might be calling on II or III and I would not hear them with a I-only setup. Thanks!  doc > [EMAIL

Howard is correct and is the main reason that very few use Pactor modes other than to connect to BBS systems (Winlink and other spin offs), and Winlink 2000 PMBO stations. Having only one company selling the only products where P2 and P3 are available, insures low adoption and high cost due

Hey Doc... Not to me.  I'm using an AEA PK232MBX PACTOR I here... Bet Ten meters will be pretty good as I'm hearing quite a few strong PSK signals on 10.120 right now at 1430Z. Will be looking for Nick on PACTOR on 7074 at 1411Z as he indicated, then the other freqs as needed. Howar
