Omar, good evening.
It is a program that uses PSK (31, 63, 125, 250) . It can use regular PSK
for keyboard chats but you can also decide to use PSK with ARQ if you want to
send a text file or email where accuracy is important.
Calling CQ using NBEMS on 14073 + 1000 hz. Will try to go to FLARQ if
anyone using NBEMS copies.

Dave,
Do not try to type at the same time you are linked with another station,
because flarq is going to be sending keystrokes to VBdigi, often at the same
time as you try to type. As you point out, NBEMS is a messaging system, not
a chat system. It is also primarily for 2m emergency messaging,

Being so close to another net frequency is not going to work unless you
provide a proper filter.
Using flarq efficiently you need to

This rather surprises me as I can normally decode PSK31 stations right
next to each other with no problems at all. Even if they are almost
touching each other on the waterfall. And that is using a very wide
filter, typically voice bandwidth, unless I have some very strong
signals that is desens
