  • Topic of the week

    From Tony Langdon@432:1/101 to All on Tue Nov 15 08:21:00 2016
    I'm going to try something different and post a "topic of the week". While we are a diverse group, I'll try and keep them open:

    My first topic is what modes do you use on the radio? If you're an amateur, that can include transmit and receive. Scanner and shortwave listeners talk about what you like to monitor, and those who are yet to embark on your radio journey can talk about what interests you.

    For me, I use a wide variety of modes. Breaking them down into groups:

    Analogue voice:
    FM (Amateur/UHF CB/scanning)
    AM/SSB (Amateur)


    Digital Voice
    P25 (Fire service - I use this in training and at jobs, monitor on a scanner otherwise)
    DMR/D-STAR (Amateur)
    FreeDV (Amateur)

    Image/video
    SSTV/SSDV (amateur)
    ATV (Amateur)

    Digital Data
    AX.25 Packet (Amateur)
    RTTY/PSK31/JT65/Olivia, etc - too many to mention! (Amateur)
    Winlink (Amateur)
    CW (slowly in short bursts ;) ).

    Over to you! :)
