It IS funny, isn't it?!

Yes, I agree - but remember this is for pratice purposes.

I hooked up a microphone to my computer, and I went to some Yahoo Chat
rooms.  I am surprised at how well it works - I dont' see much delay.

Using chat, I suppose all I need is one of those Morse beeping boxes.
I suppose until I get that, I could just simulate it will my voice!!

Maybe create a newsgroup "reader" that outputs morse code on the computer's
speakers?
Learn code while keeping up with the flame wars of r.r.a.m and r.r.a.p!

You've got an idea there. I wonder if modems could have
intercommunicated with CW. Isn't the sound you hear 
from your modem actually some form of FSK? Data?
Or is it closer in lineage to packet?

Hi guys.

If you are interested in isolation between your txrx and computer for
various modes, and need cat control, then take a look at my pages.

Have fun and enjoy :-)

Subject: PSK-31 question - A little off subject

I was copying the mail on the way home about someone who got into PSK-31
and how well it worked.

With LW becoming more popular and with the expected LW US Amateur
allocation somewhere in the FAR distance future.  With narrow, slow and
other limitations of LW, would this be a good mode to try out on the
1750 no license band?

Probably not.  PSK31 is not great with static crashes etc.  You may want to
try one of the newer modes like SLOWFELD, THROB or MFSK16 (if they are
allowed on 1750).

There are, nevertheless, PSK31 beacons on this band.

Why not try it and see?

Subject: TM-D700A and Tripmate?

Randy--

You may have already solved your problem by now.

But some of mine get shelved for weeks/months, so here goes:

If you have fed the Tripmate its output back into its input
so it sees its own "ASTRAL" string, it should initialize itself
and start spitting out NMEA sentences.

Try using a simple comm program like Procomm, HyperTerminal,
etc. and see if you can view how it is behaving. If it is
initializing, then the problem must be in the D700a or the
interface.

Also, some D7a's had this firmware situation:
http://www.qsl.net/n6qab/kensb.htm

I don't follow the D700a since I don't own one (yet) :).

Just a thought.
