Hi Rik,

I am not really in favour of the wide modes ie. 500 Hz on our small band, but I will be running the EME mode (64 Hz) regularly for a while & may increase power on some nights Txing for greater distance reports. Tonight power is 5 watts, 15mW ERP estimated.

Not disturbed by any comments which may be posted as it is good to know other peoples feelings. As long as I know that I am not abusing the system or breaking any rules I feel that should be OK with most others who use the band.

Thanks & 73

Gary - G4WGT

Hello Gary,
 
sorry, I overlooked the 500Hz version.
But even that mode is "no go" for me (and several others). ON, PA and maybe other countries have a 100Hz bandwidth limit. Taking into account that the band is only 3kHz wide this limit makes sense to me.
ROS-EME would be OK in regard with bandwidth, but I am not sure the coding is public (what is a requirement in Belgium).

Rik, LF,

ROS EME mode is 64 Hz wide apparently & the version (16 & 8 baud) Graham & I were using tonight was 500 Hz wide.

the EME version has less than 100Hz bandwidth.
The other ROS modes are several kHz wide and not suited for 501-504kHz.
What about JT2 or JT4 as an alternative ?

For once I am afraid I agree with Mal...

ROS created quite a stir when it first appeared on HF earlier in the
year. Their first suggested working frequency on 20m put it splattering
right over the IARU beacons on 14100, which it seems the developers had
never heard of. They soon moved it.... And of course the FCC have
decreed it is not legal in the USA because it is 'spread spectrum'
which is not allowed below 220MHz.

What advantage has it over the other digital modes which have been
trialed on 500kHz? It is right that we should support these various
digital modes (but none of them turn me on at all) but we should not do
so at the danger of making the band unusable for other operators (and
QSOs...).

I am not on transmit mode at the moment, just receive.
