Subject: digital mode sounds
I have recently put a HAL DXP38 on the air on RTTY with some success. Can
anyone recommend a GOOD book about all digital modes, including RTTY?
How does one recognise CLOVER tones, ASCII tones, etc. I'd appreciate
any suggestions.

Take a look at http://www.teleport.com/~nb6z/
The ARRL web page also has some good digital books available.

IMHO....
I tired of hearing that Ham radio is just a hobby. Of course it's a
hobby
but that's not all. I'm not talking about emergency services either.
That's
all well and good and may be one of the reasons our bands still exist
but
I'm sick of the politics.
If all we're doing or allowed to do is help each other set up stuff and
enjoy the fun of getting it working; what then? Are we to do
nothing but test our SWR and call it a hobby. If you keep saying what
Ham
radio is NOT then you're cutting it off at the feet. Why the hell would
anyone want to be a "Ham" once the "fun" of setup is over? It limits the
hobby to smart asses.
The point is, WHERE'S THE BENEFIT? We need to be flexible about Internet
connectivity and new methods. Everyone is quick to say that packet has
been
hit hard by the internet. Yet not enough say what CAN packet do that's
different. Plus, stop the either or one sided thinking! For example,
use the
darn Internet when it makes since. If you want to brag about not using
anything but radio, fine. Yet keep your mouth shut when others do their
thing. Too many "rule police" are self righteously killing Ham radio!
Sure I know, we need rules else it would be like CB. I understand that.
But
that's not even the issue. We're not talking about childish repeater
abuse
here. We're talking innovation. That is going to mean change. Too many
of us
simply fear change. Stop it!
If everyone listened to the nit-picking rule police then NO ONE would
join
the hobby/service. To the nay-sayers, I don't recommend breaking the
law. My disagreement is the suggestion that *YOUR* view of Ham radio
should
be my view. Isn't it (after all) what we make of it? So first check you
pride
and arrogance at the door and remember we're talking about sharing the
bands
here and not murder. Don't be naive about the money involved and special
interests too.
It's been said that the telephone lobbies promoted much of part 97 to
keep
everyone from using Ham radio instead of the phone system. While it's
widely
debated what the purpose and *true* intent of Part 97 is; we need to
keep an
open mind. We need to consider change. We need to know our vote counts
*and*
we can change the rules as new innovation necessitates.
So I hope you all get the point. There needs to be an attraction to ham
radio other than just being technical. It's fun but why are we spending
good money on equipment? Why are we training our selves in proper
techniques?
Why are we focusing on features and not benefits? Why is every real
benefit
seemingly shot down by outdated rules while ham radio dies off with
it's old
guard? CHANGE people, is a good thing. I suggest you get used to it. You
haven't a choice in this regard. The goal is communication.
So I'd like to think Ham radio is about scientific exploration. New
benefits
from the new features, methods, and technology. I'd always considered
Ham
Radio to be the place for "do it yourself" radio innovation. It's a free
county is it not. I hate politics but do you see there's money interests
