[aprssig] APRS tone encode question

[Andrew Rich]

Scott,

So how many "cycles" of 1200 or 2200 fit into the period allowed for 1200
baud ?

  It just means that when you switch from one tone to the other, you stay at
the same place in the waveform.  You get a sine wave that's stretched and
compressed in places, but it doesn't have any jumps or flat spots in it.

    what is phase continuous ?

      No, it requires that the phase be continuous.  Since 2200 isn't an
even multiple of 1200 baud it wouldn't come out even anyway.  In the
OpenTracker, a pointer to the current sine value is incremented each step.
The size of the increment depends on which tone is being sent at the moment.

        Does Packet require the tone shift from 1200 to 2200 to occur at a
zero crossing ?
