Using the sysop-utility one can check and set this manually. But that parameter should be recognized correctly ! Is it a bug or a feature, hi ? Any hint is welcomed ! 73!

The reason I'm looking for this type of program, is so I can attach my sound boardüs input, to my PK232 TNCüs mark/space output, for tuning digital signals on the HF bands. Updates (refreshes) need to occur at a minimum of 2 seconds to make tuning of a signal on the shortwave radio functional, and the oscilloscope display Windows needs to be scaleable in size.

To: ham-digital@ucsd.edu A friend of mine and I would like to set up an on-line system on UHF somewhere for point-to-point usage (his house to mine), and would like to go faster than 1200 bps on 2M. I've seen some UHF 9600 bps integrated packet tnc/radios but never paid attention to the ads. Are there any experiences with these products good or bad? This is for ham radio usage, so I'm not looking for one of those non-licensed 900 MHz doodads. 73 Dave WB0GAZ dgf@netcom.com ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 21 Jun 94 19:07:20 EST From: ihnp4.ucsd.edu!library.ucla.edu!europa.eng.gtefsd.com!newsxfer.itd.umich.edu!zip.eecs.umich.edu!panix!usenet@network.ucsd.edu Subject: Suggestion pse for 9600 bps + integrated pkt/radio?

The first was an old TAPR TNC1 with 9600 bps modem and a Tekk 900 radio. The modem was the real problem. I then upgraded to a DataEngine with Kantronic's 9.6/19.2 modem. That worked quite well. I added a second DE with 9.6/19.2 modem and a Kantronic's D4-10. That was truly plug and play. The D4-10's 10 watts out was a nice improvement on the 15 mile hop I use it on. I did have a problem with the D4-10's frequency drift until Kantronic's installed a modification and replaced a bad cap. I recently replaced the Tekk 900 with a Tekk 960 which is told to have better frequency stability. I can not say that it has improved things, as the link is quite reliable generally. The groups I belong to has also installed a full duplex bit regenerator "repeater" operating at 9600 bps using TAPR's 9600 bps modem and a MFJ tnc. That works quite nicely. The rcvr is actually a Tekk 900, while the xmtr is a motorola. Completely packaged radios and tnc's though I have no experience with. I hope this helps.
