The band was much improved tonight. At least, MFSK-32 was sufficient for net business and traffic. Mindy W7ZAP tried MFSK-64 for the weekly FLAMP exercise, but the first two REPORTs were not encouraging and she started over with MFSK-32. Christine AF7OK and Steve K6ETA did copy the file in MFSK-64, so the faster mode was working in some locations. Feel free to experiment with modes for your traffic; return to MFSK-32 (or?) for REPORTs and net business.

Welcome to George AL7BX in Cedar City,UT and Bill N7EU in Sam’s Valley,OR and welcome back to Bob N7RBP in Medford,OR. We’re always happy to have new Ops join the net and especially Ops from nearby Oregon Counties. In times of emergency, we would like to be connected to the contiguous Oregon Counties. Although ORCA’s focus is training and practice, we would also function as an emergency digital net in times of need. Now that we’re covering western US, the net is more robust and useful. A long band does not shut us down. Our distant stations make excellent relays in long-band condx.

Following the net, I received email from Doug WB6VAC in Republic,WA who was monitoring the net. He’s configuring a Raspberry Pi digital station, similar to Ralph WB6SDR. I would like to do this myself, but haven’t found the free time. I’ve not made good progress learning Linux yet. I’m really frustrated with my Linux progress. I’m still unable to reliably update the fldigi suite. Now, my family gave me an iPad Mini so I can begin learning Mac too.

Although the band was better, we didn’t hear any signals from Humboldt County, our near neighbors. There have been times when we exchanged images @ 5w on HF w/o errors. I hope the descending sunspot cycle isn’t going to make things even tougher for us.

Here’s our signal evaluation image copied by Gene W1EEP in Cedar City,UT.

Thanks for taking time to work with us tonight. The net went very well. You’re doing a great job and we’re getting lots of digital practice. Enjoy the holidays and be safe. 73 Doug K7KY

WELCOME to the ORCA DIGITAL NET

Doug K7KY/NCS, SW/OR, 35w, 180′ Doublet @ 80′

ORCA meets every Tuesday 1930p/0330z – 3.581+1500 – MFSK-32

W1HKJ Software: FLDIGI, FLMSG, FLAMP

ORCA is a DIRECTED net, dedicated to learning and developing

digital operating skills and practicing digital traffic handling.

ORCA connects Amateur Operators with common interest in training,

information-sharing, and mutual-aid. Visitors always welcome.

New to ORCA? See: http://orcadigitalnet.com/quick-start/

Following check-in NCS sends:

1) Test image for signal evaluation

2) Rotation list

3) Announcements

Weekly FLAMP exercise by W7ZAP

Traffic Round: NCS calls each station in rotation

No traffic? (practice/formal) Send ‘QRU’.

Hold keyboard dialogue for Comment Round. Questions anytime.

Comment Round: comments, reception reports, observations, questions

(keyboard or FLMSG Form as you like)

NOTE: LOCK fldigi @ 1500, enable RxID, TxID

ENABLE: CONFIGURE/ID/RsID ‘Retain tx freq lock’

FLAMP does not sense FLAMP traffic. Set FLDIGI to ‘AUTOSTART’ FLAMP.

Regular FLAMP practice traffic is followed with one round of FLAMP

REPORTS and one FILL.

ORCA CHECK-INS COME NOW. Send CALLSIGN or Video/ID on waterfall

First time? CALL/NAME/QTH

Announcements 27/dec/16

Tonight we begin another simple file manipulation exercise using

FLMSG & FLAMP. Our weekly FLAMP exercise, up next, will distribute

‘ex8.txt’. Part of the exercise is parsing/following instructions.

Note: At the top of the FLAMP TX tab is the ‘To:’ window; it defaults

to ‘QST’. Setting this variable ID’s the target station. In a real

traffic situation, only the target station needs fills.

So, remember to change ‘Send To:’ from QST to ORCA,NCS,K7KY,etc

You can return this exercise to NCS in FLAMP today, or any practice net.

As always, these exercises are optional; you can send other traffic,

images, or QRU.

Please send only one practice traffic per net. Bulletins and images are

traffic; that’s your traffic for the session. Net time is limited. As

participation grows we want to continue providing comprehensive practice

to all members.

Weekly Net Report usually posted next day

:sb:36 Cyber Defense simular to Air Defense

:mg:1120 When it comes to taking action against attackers, there are many ways to monitor, identify and counter adversary cyberattacks. These active cyber defenses are similar to air defense systems that monitor the sky for hostile aircraft and shoot down incoming missiles. Network monitors that watch for and block (“shoot down”) hostile packets are one example, as are honeypots that attract or deflect

adversary packets into safe areas. There, they do not harm the targeted network, and can even be studied to reveal attackers’ techniques.

Active cyber defense does more than just deny attackers opportunities. It can often unmask the people behind them, leading to punishment. Nongovernment attackers can be shut down, arrested and prosecuted; countries conducting or supporting cyberwarfare can be sanctioned by the international community.
