Hi John,
Nice to have a server online in ozzie land...
I have done some test with PSK250, and it is indeeed 2x as fast when you have
a good channel.
I have still to tune the timing of pskmail to psk250, as a matter of fact there
are still some
tuning problems in version 0,5 as it is.
But it looks like I will be able to work on it for the next 3 1/2 months (until
we leave for our winter residence in Spain),
I only had to promise the XYL I will not spend more than 4 hours a day on it :)
BTW I just approved your wiki spaces request...
73,
Rein PA0R
