Results from the 12/29/2009 Test of FLDIGI from KO6TZ

Hello all,
 
The results of the testing of the program group 'FLDigi" went very well this evening.

The testing was done using the RATS repeater 146.940 FM, testing from KO6TZ in Desert Hot Springs  to KI6WNF in La Quinta.
 
All of the modes worked, there was some difficulty with THROB, but we were successful in exchanging data.  It is understood that these mode were intended for use on SSB, but this was an experiment.
 
Many of the modes have several speeds available.  We did not test at all baud rates, but a sampling of the slow, mid and high speed all worked.
 
The modes tested were:
THROB
THOR
RTTY
BPSK
MT-63
DOMINO-EX
HELLSCRIBER
MFSK
OLIVIA
CW (MCW)
 
On our next session, we will be trying to get the FlARQ program working for us.  This feature allows the exchange of text and binary files and also an "e-mail" type of traffic handling.
 
It went well....
