F. COURSE HANDOUT MATERIAL
* The training material comprises 475 pages of class handouts.
With the typical lecturer, the student must decide between
taking notes, or paying attention to what the lecturer is
saying. The training handout solves this "note-taking" dilemma.
The DSP Made Simple training material provides a
"bulletized" description of each DSP topic in addition to
an abundance of diagrams. A textual description
summarizing the key DSP concepts are included at the bottom
of each handout page.
* The book "Understanding Digital Signal Processing", written
by the instructor and published by Addison Wesley.
(This text is Amazon.com's top-selling DSP book.)
* Pertinent DSP documents, such as tutorial articles on DSP,
lists of DSP-related Internet sites, vendor application
notes, etc.
G. COURSE LECTURER:
RICHARD LYONS is a Consulting Systems Engineer, and
lecturer with Besser Associates. He has been the Lead
Hardware Engineer for many multi-million dollar signal
processing systems for both the National Security Agency
(NSA) and TRW Inc. An experienced lecturer, Richard has
delivered signal processing seminars and training courses
throughout the US and Europe. He has written numerous
articles on DSP topics, and authored the course text
"Understanding Digital Signal Processing". Richard is a
member of the IEEE and Eta Kappa Nu, the electrical
engineering honor society. The instructor can be reached
at <riclyons@ix.netcom.com>.

H. WHAT'S GOOD ABOUT THE COURSE
* Instead of overwhelming the student with complex
mathematics, the lecturer uses intuitive explanations and
well-chosen examples to develop a fundamental understanding
of DSP theory. (A recipe for technical material that's too rich
in equations is hard for the beginner to digest.)
* The practical aspects of signal processing techniques are
stressed as opposed to mathematically rigorous discussions
of discrete system theory. THIS COURSE TEACHES THE
STUDENTS HOW TO USE DSP IN THEIR WORK.
* Comprehensive in scope, and gentle in approach, the course
gives the student a thorough grasp of the basics and the
ability to move on to more sophisticated DSP concepts and
applications.
* In addition to covering the key practical aspects of DSP, a
collection of tricks-of-the-trade used by DSP professionals,
to make their processing more efficient, are introduced
throughout the course.
* In terms of DSP training, this course is the beginner's best
opportunity to efficiently and thoroughly learn the
fundamentals of DSP.

I. QUOTES FROM RECENT STUDENTS:
"Excellent course for engineers wanting to get (an) insight into DSP."
- George Hughes, Lockheed Martin
"This course takes the mystery out of DSP. Rick has a knack for
presenting information in a way that is very logical and easy to
understand."
- Dale Laing, Lockheed Martin
"Lyons presents a very solid engineering perspective of the subject with
a minimal, yet sufficient, amount of math."
- Gene Kozin, Itron Inc.
"Lyons' is an excellent communicator of highly technical material. He
uses plenty of real examples to translate theory to something of utility."
- David Day, Day Test and Measurement Inc.

There is life in the 5.7 Ghz band... I'm currently setting up an eme

re: morse code
It sucks, and there are MUCH better methods of communication-----I plan on
using ssb for the moonbounce tries, or, even better still, FM, or, CDMA, or,
.....
THose believing in CW or "pure 'internet free' packet" are the main problem
with ham radio today.....

Subject: Have original PK-232, what needed to do PACTOR, etc...
After a several year break from Ham radio, about 8 to 10 years, I am
getting a renewed interest. Especially in the HF digital modes. I used
to operate HF RTTY, AMTOR and packet and have an original PK-232.
Now, will it operate PACTOR? I see no mention in the manual about
PACTOR.
As I said it is an OLD PK-232. The sign on banner states the software is
Release 30.DEC.88.
How can I get it to new standards while spending very, very little (read
almost none) money on it?
If it is a software upgrade, I can burn EPROMs no problem.
