Subject: Compression et all
This is going to sound like a troll, but bear with me.
I have not really kept track of Ham Radio for quite a while now.
Starting in electronics in the 1970's, I got a lot of exposure to ham,
but never got a licence.
Since I lost track of ham, there have been at least two developments
that should hit ham radio like a bombshell, namely digital voice
compression (mpeg) and also digital video compression (mpeg again).
Voice compression should allow voice traffic to go to very narrow
channel modes, with a resulting dramatic increase on the number
of people able to get on a given band, plus the greater accuracies
and longer range receiption afforded by digital error correction.
Digital video, mpeg-1 style, should change ATV entirely, allowing
ATV work in much narrower bandwidth, and much lower frequencies.
Could it even allow DX ATV ? I don't see why mpegs cannot completely
replace slow scan.
I know some of this technology is pretty new, but is anyone doing this/
working on this ?
Thanks in advance.

down and ready for transport and includes 2 coax standoffs, base and wall
mounting bracket.
The tower is located in the Baltimore Area. Please contact me by E-mail if
you are interested.

Come on Chuckles, you were a no-code Ham, what attracted you to the hobby?
What does your posting have to do with TCP/IP??

Actually, I was never a no-code Ham, as if that really mattered one way or
another. Lots of great no-code Hams out there.
I started off as a 5wpm novice, and by the time I took my tech exam, I had
been hanging around the novice CW part of 40m long enough that I decided to
take the 13 wpm "general" code test, just for ha-ha's. Imagine my surprise
when I passed it! So it was back to the grindstone, studying for the written
part of the general ticket. So it went. (Yawn)
My comment was not about no-code Hams, Einstein, it was about no-coders
*associated with the telecommunications industry*, (just as I said in the
original post - sorry about your lack of basic reading comprehension) that
all the Ham magazines put forward at the time as being a great asset to the
Ham community. - Then they turned out to be much like you, instead. What a
let-down!
The GREAT majority of the worthless jerks I mentioned were and are, of
course, tcpip buffs.
Everybody else knows that... I'm not surprised that YOU would like to
pretend that you didn't know what I was talking about.
Watch your step, Steve; Get saucy with me again, and I'll start mentioning
"your fellow Hams", and you know how uncomfortable THAT concept tends to
make you feel!

Steve, you seem like an intelligent guy - why do you even bother to
waste bandwidth on this guy? He is pure noise.
