PSK31 module.
I have not yet tried interfacing my PK232MBX since I rarely work RTTY
anymore and have never worked PACTOR, but I will probably give it a try
if for no other reason than to give me a keyboard CW capability should I
wish to try that someday. I have successfully interfaced the program with
my IC-765 radio and do PSK31 PTT via Logger software and a shared serial
port to my CT-17 radio/computer interface unit. Works seamlessly and
makes PSK31 that much more convenient.

Post the .wav or .mp3 file and I'm sure someone will
be glad to decode it for you.

Subject: High Speed Packet(128k plus)
I am a new ham. :) KC7FHI (technician no-code, woohoo!)
I am interested in packet, but I have managed to pick up on some older
information about 56k RF modems and such. Even a mention that 128kbps is
possible through packet. Does anyone have any guidance they can give me?
I'm interested in packet- just not Charles's version of it (you really
are long winded.)
I have a kenwood th-22at handheld 2 meter radio. I also have access to 2
other mobile 2 meter radio's from kenwood. What I find a great idea is
to perhaps browse the net, talk, etc while on my laptop in my truck
(which has a kenwood 2 meter radio in it too.)
I went to PacketRadio.com and checked out the faq's and the beginners
guide. Pretty good.
See, there's new hams coming aboard everyday.
Frank.

Two coax jumpers and a PTT connection interface the unit
to the transverter. You have to supply 13.8 VDC power, a
data cable to the computer, and a cable from the transverter
to the antenna too, of course. I suppose that's too much
"assembly" for some people.
Note, an external amplifier is not a good idea. You don't
need the extra TR delay, and any path that can't be made
with the 5-10 watts available from the transverter probably
has too much multipath to be useful anyway (though with
the FEC now built into the modems, multipath is less of a
concern).
The sites in the GRAPES network all run 4 watts or less.
We can do that due to good site and path engineering.
Alligator stations are not needed or wanted.
We use MMT (or Maple Leaf copy) transverters at most of
our sites. Some SSB Electronics, DEM, and Hamtronics units
are also used. The latter two can be had as kits, for those not
afraid of some "assembly", or they can be bought W&T too.
Not having to futz around trying to force an inappropriate FM
voice radio to handle data means that setting up a 56 kb station
is usually easier than trying to get a 9.6 kb setup going. (It can
cost less than a 9.6 kb modem and an IF modulated multimode
too. The latter is usually needed for a reasonable BER with
9.6 kb systems. We consider anything worse than 1 in 10E6,
uncorrected, as unacceptable for network use.)
Note, the modem will work full duplex, so it can serve as a
regenerating repeater for a MAN, with separate Tx and Rx
converters, or it can be used for a duplex trunk on a dedicated
WAN link, also with separate Tx and Rx converters. It can
obviously also be used half duplex by user stations at fixed
or mobile locations using ordinary transverters.
It is a very easy system to set up, is cost effective, and has
high performance. It is a bit slow compared to some systems
used commercially, but it is the best off the shelf system
available to amateurs (at least until TAPR manages to get
their SS radios working, and I wonder how well they'll survive
on a high RF site like those used for most of our network).
