Go to the URL below and scroll down to "Experimental Communications Modes". The FDK method described there uses synchronised tone transmissions of 60 secs for each character. Actual tests (as against armchair analysis) have shown that the usual method of trying to discern 60 sec lines on the spectrograph is inferior to dumping all the signal into two bins and deciding which are the two strongest tones in the channel. The software then calculates the difference and decodes this difference as a character. Have a look - you might consider if it has some merit. 73s Steve Olney (VK2ZTO/AXSO - QF56IK : Lat -33 34 07, Long +150 44 40) ============================================= HomePage URLs: http://www.qsl.net/vk2zto http://www.zeta.org.au/~ollaneg Containing:- ULF, ELF, VLF & LF Experimentation InfraSonic Experimentation Laser Comms DX Amateur Radio Astronomy =============================================
