hi andy... mitch here in mobile...
we are using 9600 baud on our dx cluster backbone on 145.600 Mhz. and our
bbs 446.100 Mhz. backbone along the gulf coast here... we have a variety
of modems and radios in use... the xmit mod for 9600 usually is trivial
if the radio was true fm and used a variactor diode to fm the crystal...
just feed 9600 baud out of the modem to the variactor diode... but
receiving is a little more complicated... post what kind of modems
and radios you are considering using... our group has experience with
almost all of the 9600 modems and several radios...

Maybe that's the Area Code for The Twilight Zone??

Subject: sstv? on 14.230 kHz
To: ham-digital@ucsd.edu
This afternoon, Nov. 7, I heard a group of hams on 14.230 kHz sending
sstv to each other. I tried to decode it with jvfax60's sstv mode. But,
I had no luck.
The jvfax60 program has modes like b/w 8, 16, 32 and "Scottie" and
"Martin." The hams were using modes like "Robot 72."
Can the jvfax60 program recieve the "Robot" modes? Is there a program
that will?
Thanks in advance for your help,
Tom Gosse, N1PHG

Comments from Robert Casey (followed by Brian Battles) about phone company
area codes reminds me to tell y'all:
Check out by ftp: lcs.mit.edu /telecom-archive
This has all kinds of stuff about telephone system operations, areacode
history, dialups to internet, FCC rulings, stories & remeniscenses, etc -
- 4 pages of file listings.

maybe here's a chance to start something. i know of unicode but i don't know
enough. has it become standardized enough to be able to be something we can
start using in amateur radio (as in we could write software or build hardware
for it for now and when the PC guys catch up we'll be ready for them)?
hate to see another long delay like there was with ASCII.
sounds like a project to me (maybe even a mag article). ARRL to coordinate
or should TAPR or AMRAD be the "in charge" group?
could drag the whole computer industry along for the ride....tee hee.

Subject : Re: ECPA is untested law. Cellular mods may well be legal.
Seems to me that the easy way to state this is that (A) the courts must assume
that the Constitution is valid and that laws can only be enforced if they do
not conflict with the Constitution, BUT (B) the cops -- and everyone else --
must assume that a new law is valid unless and until the courts say otherwise.
