Crap. Comments closed for good? I was in class this week and didn't get a chance. Sad part is, I have it written. :-( -- Peter Laws | N5UWY | plaws plaws net | Travel by Train! ______________________
I just submitted my comments at 1159 CST Sunday (even though I have no power!!). Hopefully it's a "valid" submission. I assume that they wouldn't accept it at all if the filing period closed. -- Pete
I'm sure it's vetted to eliminate obvious defects like being unreadable, etc. Mine were accepted this morning and I really want to believe that the system has the deadline encoded and that it would b
Definitely the way to go. Looks like a LOT got accepted today. Busy weekend. :-) -- Peter Laws | N5UWY | plaws plaws net | Travel by Train! _______________________________________________ RTTY mailin
I was under the impression that there was a separate period for Reply Comments? Not true? Regardless, some targeted reply comments are probably called for. -- Peter Laws | N5UWY | plaws plaws net | T
I wish I was half this smart: http://apps.fcc.gov/ecfs/document/view?id=7520963755 Novel method of attack as well, or at least I thought so. Bravo! -- Peter Laws | N5UWY | plaws plaws net | Travel by
33 points over 10 pages. And a lawyer-like header, even. I'm sure the commissioners will be duly impressed. He claims on one of his 4 submissions that the other three had been rejected. Um, no, they
If it was legit, he'd have IDed. I think I would have just transmitted QRZ? a time or two. -- Peter Laws | N5UWY | plaws plaws net | Travel by Train! _______________________________________________ R
All true ... however, not all those modes are apparent to the listener. Back in the early oughties, I always wondered what those funny spikes were in the MMTTY spectrum display. Not quite evenly spac
I "respect" the PSK31 folks because I can see their traces and hear them if I listen closely (wasn't always the case for me! Not RFI after all!). Likewise for that calliope mode (MFSK?). That actuall
I was actually pleased at how little of that there seemed to be this year. Made the few that use ornate macros stick out all the more. Saw several ops repeat the so-called RST, too. No idea what that
I'm here to tell you that you should try! I held a frequency for nearly an hour on the weekend and made some 50 QSOs (I should look up my stats - might have been more!). All my (HF) antennas are made
I'm well aware of the difference between ITU allocations, FCC allocations, and band plans. My question was (is): where can I find a good digital band plan? Can't avoid the silent modes if I (we) don'
Meaning the only incoming port on your system is 23/tcp (telnet's port)? I don't think that's what you mean. I think you mean that you only exit the building via telnet. If that's the case, the only
What's really galling to me is that I know (because you've stated publicly) you have lobbied the head hired-hand. Your technical competence should be unquestioned by anyone in the ARRL hierarchy (whe
It is. The OP needs to make sure he has unshift on space (USOS) turned ON. OR ... you can look at the top row of keys on your keyboard. :-) I know from experience that "FFGIERYWBENCSJKFVHSFI&%^&%SFT7
Oh! I know! Let's make every contest exactly the same! Get rid of all but the serial number in Sweepstakes, too! Just leave the rules the way they are. The differences add to the challenge. Ignore th
Really? As long as everyone is at 31 (and a quarter!) bauds, who cares? Yes it's slow compared to the full 45.45 bauds of regular amateur RTTY but ... so? As you note, though, if you're really annoye
Still looking for a band plan that lists where all the different modes are congregated. This is especially important for the "silent" mode since you can, you know, hear the other modes. The ARRL Cons
A fellow subscriber sent me a link off-list that is interesting. http://bandplans.com/index.php?band=20 I've already clicked 20 m here, but you can click modes, too. My only concern with this, given
