Yes this would then be the non-plus-ultra
in modern communication technology:
the ONE-KEY-KEYBOARD
for bad typists like myself.
I love your idea, really.

Subject: DEC 1996 QST article needed
Hi,
Does anyone have this issue and can scan an article? On page 37 is a
fairly short article called "A New "Band" for Your Radio." It is
about using the Iphone. I can order one from the League fairly
easily, but though someone might have it handy. Thanks in advance!

I have already received the needed article. Something like 30 minutes

Subject: Digipeating
With widespread distribution of small transceivers that can provide service to
the user at the same time as relaying service for another pair of users, we
have the interesting possiblility of a non utility based phone system. In
other
words, no cell sites, no land lines (except across water).
I know it's technologically possible to make the circuitry small and I think
there are methods of sharing the antenna. Is this already being done? Can
mobile amateurs provide mobile repeater service to each other?
There's probably some network theory that applies. But it seems that building
a
few such handheld mobile repeaters would be a place to start. Small groups of
people, like security teams (they don't use amateur) or a few people with
camcorders covering a local event, might use such a technology to work around
any interference or shielding that might obscure parts of the area they are
in.
I'd think with mass production techniques, it'd be easier to make five or six
billion transceivers, and provide coastal interconnections, than it would be
to
launch even one rocket, much less seventy six or whatever the number is that
the Iridium system uses.
In a commercial system, users could collect solar power and earn encrypted
credit toward their own calls by simply propping their transceiver up near a
window. Amateurs would not need such encryption. I suspect even small numbers
of such digipeaters would present some theoretical advantages for covering a
soccer field or a major city with savings in transmitter power, and some
method
of rerouting signals.
Just wondering if all this imagining is already being done in the amateur
community.
Yours,

Subject: Explain freq. settings
I am new to the digital hf scene. I need someone to provide an explanation of
the freq. setups for digital.
Lets say I want to work a station that I pickup calling cq. My tnc locks on
to them at 14.060.60 as read on the dial. Is this where I set my rig? Please
explain this in idiot terms :) I want to call cq. Where should I be setting
my freq. to not only transmitt but to receive an answer.
Any help or advise would be most appreciated.....
thanks...

Subject: Explain freq. settings
If you're using ASFK then the frequence you're receiving on is the one you
need to transmit on. Make sure you're on lower sideband, and that your mark
and space frequencies are set for between 170hz and 200 hz depending on
mode.
Most rtty stations use a Mark of 2125 and a Space of 2295, whereas most
Pactor stations seem to like Mark 2000, Space 2200.
