Hello all,
Bruce, N4PDX, and I are very interested in exploring digital modes of communication. Our idea is to get a group of interested people together where we all can learn what’s out there to use, get proficient with practice and maybe start figuring out where this all fits in emcom.
If anyone one would to start playing, we are planning on running our first net Wednesday 4/27 at 19:30 right after the voice net.
For our first try we are going to use simplex
146.44
and the mode will be:
MT63-2000
Fear not if that mode sounds cryptic. You can get all the information you need at http://panbems.org/
They have links to download the software, we are using FLdigi, and instructions to get it set up.
You don’t need any special equipment for this to work. Believe it or not, you can use acoustic coupling, which basically means you can hold your HT next to the mic on your computer and the software will pick up the transmission. For sending, just hold the push to talk with your HT near the speakers.
If you have any questions feel free to contact either me or Bruce.
Cheers,
Mark
