not quite 'linux/ham' but a real CW mystery

 

British plane sends word 'stendec' before disappearing in Chil¨¦.

Can't find LPM setting in WEFAX

 

Hello,?
In order to receive KYODO NEWS fax service correctly I always had to set LPM to 60 instead of 120 in my fldigi using WEFAX ioc576.?

I can't find this setting anymore, and I remember it just over the waterfall. The button is present in many screenshot around but somehow I am missing it from the version of FLDIGI I just installed.

Was that removed? And why?

Any help??
What I receive from KYODO NEWS is half the page, and IOC288 doesn't work either, using it I got everything garbled.?

PS I'm not getting a sync because of poor reception here but I remember being able to set LPM manually using that button, that isn't there now.?

Please help :)

TY all, 73


Thank you,?

Re: Next version FLdigi

 

David, w1hkj ?wrote in email:
Do you have a specific format in mind for the log entry payload?
Good day David.

Implement sending an ADIF text string, which is logged similar to wsjt/jtdx/mshv. In the settings you need to be able to specify the FQDN or IP address of the server and the port on the server. (Variant 1).

An example of what comes from wsjt-x:
<BAND:3>15m <STATION_CALLSIGN:6>RW6AVK <MY_GRIDSQUARE:6>KN95la <CALL:8>R3KEE/MM <FREQ:9>21.075377 <MODE:3>FT8 <QSO_DATE:8>20240426 <TIME_ON:6>053920 <QSO_DATE_OFF:8>20240426 <TIME_OFF:6>053920 <RST_SENT:3>-15 <RST_RCVD:3>+05 <GRIDSQUARE:4>KO91 <EOR>

You can suggest sending the data that is specified in the Log export settings to adif. (Variant 2).

Implement a new macro <UDPLOG> in which you indicate which fields are sent and where. (Variant 3). Similar macro <EQSL:[message>. To simplify the macro, you can take the necessary fields from the Log export table. This macro tag should be put before <LOG> or <LNW>. Macro <UDPLOG> should not replace <LOG> or <LNW>.

Re: Minimal Hellschreiber for Linux

 

2m and GMRS are FM analog since that¡¯s by far the most common (I should add that in), 10 meters is USB, and 40 is CW. None of these options should be relied on for primary assistance but between staying in touch (with someone at least) and offering an easy backup it has a place in most people¡¯s plans. I don¡¯t think Hell has a place but it¡¯s an interesting idea to chase down. It would be a nice rag chew option for those away with minimal gear.
Re: Minimal Hellschreiber for Linux

 

I couldn't tell from your link about the wilderness protocol, but which band and modulation are you planning to use as primary? I ask because I recently did some weak signal testing with various fldigi modes on VHF FM, and THOR 4 & THOR Micro blew FM CW out of the water (although I admit there could be something I'm doing wrong).

If you're doing CW on HF, I really like my Tru SDX. It has a CW decoder, and the PTT button sends CW. I know the developer recommends against relying on it for life safety, but I think it has a place in the back country for being so light, compact, and having such low power consumption.?

What draws you to Hellschreiber? I think it looks fascinating. I need to try it out. I just wonder how many people would be monitoring HS in a back country emergency.?
Re: Minimal Hellschreiber for Linux

 

Since we're sharing things, here's what's in the back of my mind for this project. I'm leaning toward CW (not necessarily Morse Code...) but if the hardware could be super basic it might be a nice way to communicate with high SNR but a low learning barrier. Hell is CW so a little keyboard and screen with the plugs as described could fit into any kit radio and give good results. There's a lot to work out and you are seeing this in the middle of chasing down the feasibility of some ideas.

And TE, your stuff is right up my alley man!
Re: Minimal Hellschreiber for Linux

 

I have built something similar on my channel - the terminal element - linked in my bio. It's not exactly what you described, but you might find some ideas there. I have one system I keep in my backpack that's just a small battery, a Pi, a digirig sound card interface, and a VHF radio. The GUI is accessed by my cell phone through a VNC connection over an off-grid wireless access point.?
