For ARQ there is an additional criterion, viz. the value to look for is the

line between 95% and 100% copy. 95% copy is generally not enough for efficient
ARQ operation.
That is why pskmail does not use S/N levels as the only parameter for switching
modes,

It could be Gary and I think it's fair to say that propagation
simulators are just not capable of capturing all the variables of the HF
channel. They do, for the most part, capture the fundamental

Gary,
Thank you for the feedback. Using ARQ systems like you did we have also noticed
that faster PSK modes show better performance as in less repeat request than
slower ones.
Your first theory is the one we believe is the most likely contributor for the
ARQ links in general benefiting from f

Hi Tony, Thank you for the information.
My pleasure John, wish I could have helped more. Thank you for your
field tests.
I should be able to safely eliminate ground waves over that distance
(95 miles).
It would also be interesting if you could work
Your question is one that I have also. In our recent NVIS testing with
fldigi/flarq we found BPSK250 provided better throughput than other modes we
tested, and most notably MFSK32 which we thought would be our safe, robust mode.
This was with a variety of band conditions including strong signal
Rein, what is the cause of the 1700hr "heaviest" multipath? Is that a
ionospheric condition of some peak airport traffic issue ?

I have done several tests with DA5UWG on 80m, and the 200 km path still shows
lots of multipath.
Both antennas are low (mine is a full wave 80m loop at 10m, DA5UWG has a dipole
at 12m).
Sometimes the mode goes up to PSK500 for a few frames, but it always switches
back to PSK500R, PSK250R or

Hi Tony,
Thank you for the information. This is the issue with field tests, there are
always several variables.
I will proceed with some other field tests, trying to eliminate some of the
variables. In my case I have an inverted V on 40 and 80M at only 9 meters peak
over the ground for the ser
Interesting observations John. I can't offer any useful insight, but look
forward to hearing from those that can.
