I am using mixw2

have tried qpsk31 and bpsk31 no luck

ideas >?

Scott,

A while back I was playing with a PIC and I thought I would have a go at
making it do RTTY.

I was surprised at how well the thing actually worked.

I was expecting harmonics and all sorts of problems.

I used a Resistor ladder of 4 bits.

I hooked it up and the thing copied 100%

Ok so I started to introduce noise and the thing still copied 100%

It is amazing what these little chips can do.

Maybe one day we will have PIC based modems.

One chip - then we will have to work on modulation techniques.

Ok going to fire up my open tracker here and play with your new PSK code.

Cheers

Scott, what is your guess for a price on the T2 kit?  I have a SCSG meeting
in the morning, and would like to "rough" them in when telling them about
it.
