Why do you want to move the data at all? Build a CW Skimmer infrastructure in the Amazon Cloud and do all the storage and processing there. The benefit is unlimited computing resources to process and
Have you guys tried using AT&T Labs' text to speech site? See http://www2.research.att.com/~ttsweb/tts/demo.php You won't be using your own voice, but at the very least the voice will be consistent.
It is amazing, isn't it! I just found out that you can add extra tags to the text box and play with the way the voice is generated. For example, select Mike's voice and enter the following: <prosody
It is scary, but it seems there is a standard for everything, including text to speech conversion http://www.w3.org/TR/speech-synthesis/ So, yes, the recording can be tweaked to suit our contesting n
The idea is to pre-record it ALL so that SSB contesting becomes the same as CW or RTTY contesting. Use the mic only in extreme situations. Works great for the exchange as well <prosody rate="+50%"> K
I wonder if good old POTS and modems are unjustly ignored as a viable option for carrying the control channel and audio; computer screen sharing can still go over the net. POTS have the benefit of pr
Today's networks carry nothing but data. Voice, including from traditional carriers, is being carried as data over the same pipes that carry the internet traffic. The difference is in the guaranteed
I don't think the presented analysis has proven conclusively anything. The comparison was against a single station. What happens when Rick compares his score against K1TTT, a station fairly close to
Hi Jose, Thank you for your time and energy to improve the usefulness of the RBN, an already incredibly useful tool. I noticed that your analysis is based on stations that generate a lot of spots, su
So this would mean that the use of Zone Prop, HamCap, etc., combined with real time feed of sun spot numbers and other similar solar data to assess propagation and determine on which bands to operate

Dick, I use 3 monitors, 2 x 24 and 1 x 20". As I do RTTY, I run n1mm with 4 parallel decoders per radio and the decoders to take space. The third monitor runs real time propagation modeling via DX At
