*copy ok ??? how me ??*Fbh)]Fg0nbd g0nbd de m0bmu m0bmu m0bmu ok
Graham good copy herT most of the time (.. A^s_ still trying to
figure out the software still - btu graham de m0bmu kkkm0bmu de g0nbd*
* *
*ok dr jim .. well your signal is quite loud on the speaker ! *
* *
*fine copy 100% what is your peak power o/p ????*
* *
*nice to work you for the first time .. *
*hr running 30 watts , racal ma1723/ra1778 with skanti pa block
.. multipsk ..*
* *
*ae 35 ft top load vertical .. inv L config*
* *
*ok ??btQJ4`xwo,g0ndb de m0bmu r ok 100% some QSB here, but still
good copy when ur sig barely audible. Am running around 90W to 10m
high, 40m long inv L antenna from EER transverter and IC718 with
multipsk also. My ERP should be close to 1W BTU graham de m0bmu

*ok jim fine .. well all 100% even in a deep qsb dip your signal
fell under the noise .. but still printed fine ... looks like a
good mode ..hihi/.. i used 250 hz 8 tone in the past and this
gave a good copy under qsb .. better than psk ..*
* *
*your signal is very clean from the tx .. no splillage .. looking
on spec-lab and can only see same as my ouit going .......*
* *
*ok .. well fine on the 1 wat erp .. after destroying my skanti
pa .. im keeping *
*power down hihi*
*btu jim ???*
* *
*g0ndb de m0bmu lost u suddenly there, was a bit worried PA had
had a nasty accident again hi. Lost a few words in first half of
your over, but mostly OK. Yes, output should be fairly clean since
not really any amplitude modulation in this mode anyway - so could
use class D tx and keep things a bit simpler. You mentioned
narrower mode - I see there is 250hz and 500hz bandwidth variants,
wonder how they compare - would not get as many complaints about
bandwidth, hi hi. BTU Graham de M0BMUkkkSd*
* m0bmu .. de g0nbd *
* *
*ok fine jim .. well 100% copy that over again .. i pressed the rx
button and the tx stopped hihi *
* *
*well this was a quick test to see if this mode printed better
over the noise ...looks to work very well *
* *
*could change mode ? 8 x 250 that would give a good test ,
reduce to 8 x 250 8 x 250 ???*
* *
*bkbkbkbk*
* *
*ok graham g0ndb de m0bmu, if you QRX will try to change over to 8
x 50 mode now - pse qrx...ok changing to 8 x 250***
