Dale, yeah but it would be even better if it WERE applied in real-time. Let me join you, thinking outside the box on this topic... the variety of comments got me thinking that it might be possible to
Great, we have the freq police, the UP police, and now the Rig Police. If I am op within the law, I will be darned if I allow any self appointed Rig Police to dictate my rig choice. Charly -- Charly,
Hi Stu, As I wrote in TXNoise.pdf, "FCC Rules 97.307 (a) No amateur station transmission shall occupy more bandwidth than necessary for the information rate and emission type being transmitted, in ac
Good operators RUN, and they Search and Pounce. When a dirty station wipes out 10 kHz of a band (as KE1B regularly does with a 7600 and legal limit amp 8 miles from me), he deprives me of the station
You got that right, Bob. The RTTY Skimmer case is simple by comparison. An individual RBN Skimmer may handle 50-60,000 spots during a CQWW weekend. now imagine how much overhead would be required for
Jim, You've convinced me about the need to clean up transmitters. So much so that I have no intention of using my FT1000MP MkV Field for much more than casual q's from the work shop and to listen on
Yes, the SSB skimmer and QoS goals may sound almost impossible to achieve right now, but I recall when President Kennedy said... /"I believe this nation should commit itself to achieving the goal, be
I disagree- signal analysis is certainly possible and won't take that much computer power. It is mostly an issue of coming up with a good algorithm. CW Skimmer for example can remove key clicks from
I would think that my old TS-450 must be pretty clean because it seems like just about every RTTY contest I get in, I can be CQ'ing and someone will move in right next to me, inside my 250 cycle pass
"...As I read the Rules, this puts anyone using them in violation of 97.307 (a)." Yaesu has recently posted new software for the FTdx5000 to "improve the CW keying bandwidth spectrum". I will install
I have never heard any complaints about my TS-850. I run it barefoot; no amp here. I just did the capacitor mods - replaced all the caps on the CAR board and the display board (the latter because the
The LAST thing we would want to do is involve the FCC in this. Far better to police this ourselves. As to checking your own rig -- someone who knows what they are doing can use a P3 connected to the
