Why WSPR when you can TALK?
For those stations sending wspr and
decoding wspr two-way , it may not be first
apparent , but the minimum signal level
WSPR decodes at is the same as ROS-MF-2
data mode
Unless you are sending wspr from a
pic-dds , then by audio or SDR the
ROS-MF-2 ( and MF-7) data modes can be
sent via the same path
Downloaded from the same web site as the opera
beacon , ROS data mode shares the same low
equipment over heads ,in terms of stability and
no time locking requirement and offers quite
reliable data comms in 100 Hz b/w
ROS-MF was developed during the initial
501<>504 allocation and remains perhaps the
lowest , single pass , live qso data
mode available to date , there being no
limit to text length .
The s/n reported is the average along
the time line , along with the margin
of signal over the minimum decode level , The
Opera beacon is completely in indicating
path suitability , but is capable of lower
s/n decode levels
As in Opera , cq web beacon and linking to
the psk-reporter is provided , where activity and s/n levels
may be downloaded
