OK Graham

 

I get the message. What modes are going to be allowed on the new band since it is an international allocation? Will there be a band width imposed for any transmission type. I suppose we could down load the DL licences conditions to see what they are allowed. Because up to now dependent upon what you put in your NoV application is what you can do. Did anyone put down  'Phone SSB 1.8kc/s BW for 501/4? The new band has about enough room for four non interfering SSB channels. And with overlap many more with Q5 potential SSTV, FAX all possible. If there is too much restriction it may stifle innovation, on the other hand set up a barrier and a way round it will be found. However we are in the dark now but all will be revealed soon definitely before 1/1/2013 according to my sources.

There is no doubt that he is a dyed in the wool OP with that antenna farm WOW! I listen on TB at bottom end during the winter months and the antennas some of them are using are huge not to mention the power.... :-). With comments like "Just a minute old man I'll turn the beam............ " and its not a joke!

CW ? good  heavens  no , why I was  using  CW on 500  the  other  day  till  next  door  switched there  festive  flashing  lights  on  and  reduced the  episode  to  a  total  nonsense  ! though  come to  think of it , the  signals  where  strong enough  to  of  used  one of the  spread spectrum  data  modes  and  would  not  of  noticed  the  hash !  and  live  CW  in the  mariana trench  is virtually   un heard of  , in all  my  listening  , I can  remember  one  station  calling  with  live  CW on 136  , I think  a  GM  , years  ago  ?  since then  the  orange  people  have  taken  over, using  the  'one eyed monsters' ( sea versions  ? or  c++ ) !

 

I think  500  should  be  looked  on as the  next  band  down  from  160  , we  have  proved  there  is  nothing  magical about the  band , 40 feet  of wire  with a  coke  bottle  on the  end  has  crossed  the  pond , with   wspr ,  ros-mf-7  and  opera  modes  , ok it  took 750  feet of wire  to  get a  live  CW  contact  with  Newfoundland , but that  was  with  50 watts , and  hard  work as  no one  knew  where  the  window  was , so  4 of  us spent  hours taking it  in turns   hand keying  gb4fpr in the  dead of  night  ..

 

I was thinking  more  of the  orange  light  brigade ,  with   historical  modes  : )   new  stations  are  starting  to  associate  low noise   limited  text length modes   which  cannot  pass  the  two  cat's  and  dog  test  with  real   keyboard to keyboard data  qso's .  , even  with the  prospect  of  a  new  band , there  was not  even  a hint  of  MF  at the  rsgb convention   in October , so  what  has  happened  ?    what  ever it  is , there  are  going to  be a  lot of  new  users  very soon  , the  last  thing  anyone  needs  is  a re-run  of 'Beacon Bedlam'   brought on by  miss  guided  guidance  !

Hi Graham

 

If that was a thinly veiled insult to CW then I'm disappointed. Other modes require the one eyed monster out of silicon valley and power hungry devices for machine-human interface need I say more? Or have I read you wrong?

Its  not the  radio rooms  Pete , its  the deep  sea monsters  rising  from the  depths  of   over  2000  meters  , some  over 37,000  metres  and  taking  over  our   600  meter  play pool with pre hysterical  modes  !
