[aprssig] Fwd: 220 band radio for Appalachian 9600 baud backbone? -SIG

[Brian Webster]

The TARPN group has been testing various radios for packet links and their suitability. Tad Torborg is a good contact point with that group. I can give input from the NY and eastnet packet group.

 

Thank you,

Brian Webster N2KGC

This radio was suggested as an available 220 radio for this application:

 

BCM-220 1.25m Mobile Radio — BridgeCom Systems, Inc. <https://www.bridgecomsystems.com/collections/amateur-mobile-radios/products/bcm-220-1-25m-mobile-radio> 

 

Does anyone have one?  In use at 9600 baud? 

Do you have a KPC-9612 for testing?

Do you have quality attenuators for making weak signal tests using the 9600 port on the 9612?

Does the radio have a wideband access to the modulator and demodulator for such use?

Do you need a partner and/or another setup to make this test?

Do you know someone who does?  Or another packet radio user group you can ask?

 

Bob, WB4APR
