Hi to Per and the list, Still having fun here learning Linux and PSKMAIL. I have successfully installed the server from the live CD install on my Thinkpad 600E and have the sound working great. I can run the client on my Thinkpad but have yet to get it installed. I still have to work on getting the server PC on line and getting EMAIL, etc. Per, would it be possible to release a Live CD with Install for the Client? This would be a benefit to the Linux newcomers on the list. Great on playing with the new modes. I don't have any experience with fldigi but have plenty of experience with PSK125 using MIXW in Windows. My son and I have successfully communicated on a regular basis on both 2 Meters and 80 Meters using PSK125. PSK125 is not a whole lot less sensitive than PSK63 or PSK31 but is more susceptible to static and noise. If conditions are good, the text really flies. We usually send prepared text files as neither of us can type that fast! I think it would be worth trying. I also have some experience with PCALE and the Mil standard 188-110A that you reference. The wide bandwidth is a factor with low power as you mention. Also, be aware that the US FCC has a rule change effective December 15, 2006 that will make digital modes greater than 500hz illegal in the US (See the ARRL website). The order also extends phone (SSB) all the way down to 3.600 Mhz. Unless the ARRL can get the rule changed, digital modes will be 500hz and under in bandwidth and allowed only below 3.600 Mhz. This might cause a surge of interest in PSKMAIl as one of the modes affected is Pactor III. The ideal situation for PSKMAIL would be similiar to Pactor where either the program or the operator can vary PSK speeds depending on the band conditions. Christmas list.....? 73 Bob WD8QLY
