Shortwave Radiogram, del 1 al 6 de Junio: programa 307

This weekend on Shortwave Radiogram, we will experiment with three flavors of
MFSK: MFSK16 (60 wpm), MFSK32 (120 wpm) and MFSK64. We use MFSK32 and MFSK64 most weeks. MFSK16 is slow, but it is often successful in poor reception conditions.

Bad reception can actually be useful this weekend, because it allows us to test
the limits of MFSK16. One caution about MFSK16 is that the audio frequency must be tuned precisely. Generally, the RSID will set your Fldigi or TIVAR/Andflmsg to the correct audio frequency. If that does not work, adjust the audio frequency until a successful decode is achieved.

In addition to comparing the text decoding performance of the three MFSK modes, we will also send the same image three times, once each in MFSK64, MFSK32 and MFSK16. You will notice that the image takes about the same amount of time to transmit in all the modes. The resolution of the images will differ, however: MFSK64 will be the most crisp, but also susceptible to interference lines. MFSK16 will be fuzzier but less degraded by interference.

Here is the image in “studio” quality …
