Re: [44net] NPR (New Packet Radio) : new firmware with 56kBaud and 120kBaud - 44net

".... may use any technique whose

This mode is documented publicly along with its source code. I'd say we are
good.

So now it's just the symbol rate and bandwidth issue to overcome.

I like the idea of multiple carriers too. Bond them together on demand
perhaps?

 The rules no longer really specify how you must ID, like pre-1980's.
 Basically in this case you ID in the mode
 itself, just like D-Star, YSF etc, does.

 If the digital code was unspecified (also allowed) you'd likely have
 to default to a CW ID.

 §97.119 Station Identification

 (b) The call sign must be transmitted with an emission authorized for
 the transmitting channel in one of the following ways:

 (3) By a RTTY emission using a specified digital code when all or part
 of the communications are transmitted by a RTTY or data emission;

 §97.309   RTTY and data emission codes.

 (4) An amateur station transmitting a RTTY or data emission using a
 digital code specified in this paragraph may use any technique whose
 technical characteristics have been documented publicly, such as
 CLOVER, G-TOR, or PacTOR, for the purpose of facilitating
 communications.

 self-identifying.
