We had a smaller net tonight, maybe due to ARC meetings in Humboldt County. We missed most of the Eureka members. Danon KE6UPE was in and out early. Again this week we experimented with flamp. We are making progress with flamp. Some members have it sorted out very well. Ken K7IFG seems to have a good grasp of flamp. Nick KI6RIT also got flamp working tonight. I managed it too, but long after the net closed. Nick and Ken stuck around to work out the wrinkles. Mindy did not get flamp working yet, but it seems she has other issues with fldigi. Her RXRSID keeps turning off. When the mode changes, she misses it all. I’m wondering if some things I’ve done with macro are upsetting her configuration. It’s possible to change much of configuration from the macro tags. I’ll have to reexamine the macros.
With only about half our members here tonight, I didn’t want to change the check-in frequency until more members are here. We’ll check in next week as we always do and look to the following week to change to digital check-in.
We don’t do much relay work on the net and I’d like to begin doing some relay practice by having two stations move up/down the WF and resend a message. This is what we will be doing on a busy traffic net. We don’t want to run the re-transmits and fills on the net freq during a working net. Sometimes Howard KB6NN needs a relay and we can practice with him. Otherwise, we can just do it for practice and fun.
Tonight we also experimented with sending our b/w logo image for signal evaluation. Ken suggests it may be useful to send an image prior to traffic to evaluate the band and select an appropriate mode. Ken pointed out that the fldigi input screen Image sending feature has four speeds for sending pictures. We experimented with this and found that the top speed, X4 is very fast, but the image quality was poor. The best image came from using X1, the default. Band conditions naturally have a big effect here.
And, we finished the ORCA DIGITAL NET website: http://orcadigitalnet.com/ . Please look it over with a critical eye. Proofread it, if you will. After looking at these pages for weeks, we don’t catch all of our errors. So, give us a hand with proofreading and also check the content for accuracy. This is a first release and we’ll enhance and expand it as time permits. Also, your ideas for additions and enhancements are welcome.
Thanks to everyone who checked in tonight and especially those who stayed to sort out our flamp issues. I hope to see you all next week. 73 Doug K7KY

I believe copy here has been 100% except I think there was an FLAMP message that I did not get at all because I wasn’t prepared. Keyboard first, then I’ll try FLAMP. I literally have never tried FLAMP, I’m guessing what to do at best. Expect the worst.
Now here goes — next transmission will be FLAMP.

I accidentally had the transmit tab selected at the start of Dave’s flamp transmission, but I didn’t see anything at the bottom of the fldigi screen indicating it was decoding a flamp message, like it does with images or flmsg stuff. For anyone that has it working – does it show anything at the bottom of the window (below the cursor frequency options) indicating flamp decode?
I also tried shutting off the Windows firewall on this laptop temporarily, just in case that factored in (it popped up once flmsg 2.0.8 was opened for the first time). No luck so far. Should I try sending one?

Copy 100% Lets stay here. I *think* flamp opens a socket with fldigi and fldigi beams the decoded data directly to FLAMP. The issue here with the first file I recevied appears to be one of file suffix. When I received the file, it came without suffix information. It was originally a “.txt” file. When I added the .txt manually, the file appears to be a duplicate of the file I sent. That looks like success to me.
The second file I received had the .txt suffix and was immediately recognizable.

OK That’s looking better I also copied the last flamp msg correctly. Mindy is haveing fldigi problems with rxid turning off each time on it’s own for some odd reason. We’ll sort it out off-net. Does anyone else want to send a message before we close?

Yes, flamp seems simple on the surface, but I don’t think I have it setup correctly. It works well when we try it across the room, but up and down the coast is not working dependably. I hope to have it sorted by next week. Mindy & I usually have time during the week to work digital issues if any of you have time and want to sort out problems… So, take a look at the website. Let us know about problems and errors. And, anything you think we’ve overlooked. Any more traffic or comments before we close?

K7IFG de K7KY Ken… I’m thinking you have been exprimenting with the various modes, more so than I have. I’m wondering if you would write a short note about the modes you’ve tried that might be a good fit for the traffic net to experiment with. Some of the modes you’ve used are quite fast. I haven’t really had time to research into the modes as I would like. Lot’s to do… overde K7KY k

Ok Doug. I hope Nice copied the message Ok I wasn’t sure. Anyway I can only go by what I have used and been able to work so far on the air. Modes Thor 22 seems to be popular on the Satern net on 20 meters on Sat mornings. Working with the locals and what we did on 40 meters I find that pakr125rc5 is good but signals have to be good. so using the ocara imagine might be good to tyy before sending using that mode.
copy of the imagine was great here. I see one can speed it up also . Have you tried that?

K7IFG KI6RIT de K7KY I’m glad Nick is still here. I know I jumped into what you guys were doing. Ken, I’m thinking that a short msg abuot the modes you’ve used will stimulate others to experiment with other modes too and we will eventually know just the mode for conditions. I’m not sure what you mean about speeding up the image. IMAGE has only two switches in software. C= color image B= b/w image. The b/w images go in 25% of color time.

de k7ifg that last was x4 so you see how fast one can send a pix

Yes.. I hadn’t noticed the X1 button on the window. X1 gave an ok image, but not good and X4 was terrible. you would have to know what it was originally. I’m not sending from the input window, but using one of the new macros. Dave made a change to the macro IMAGE tags so we can select C or B when setting up the macro. I’ll send the image again from the macro. it seems to me it’s using X1 b/w speed from the
macro. I didn’t think to ask Dave for a speed adjustment, but maybe we don’t need one… here comes from the macro. and I like the idea to send an immage to determine which mode to use…de K7KY k

de k7ifg well like you it looks terrible here.
K7IFG KI6RIT
Yes, well it looks like the macro tag sends images at X4 w/o option. I may have to impose on Dave some more to see if we can do it at X1 From the macro, there’s no option for speed and I didn’t think to ask.
Well, I”m about to get hungry again… Ken, i’m not thinking of a white paper on modes, just a note about a couple modes we might explore on the net to help us deal better with poor band conditions… over to NIck…de K7KY k
Testing transmitting as I type, haven’t done it before. Hopefully I can close the transmission without messing it up… :)
I guess it sets the speed via RSID or something, might have to go back into the window Ken was mentioning and set it back to X4. Or leave it as a surprise for next week, hehe. KI6RIT

K7KY KI6EIR de K7IFG Since we were using the x4 on the last image sent
it reverted to it when we sent the image tab I think Doug. Well that was interesting to learn. DE K7IFG K

Ken still a poor image. Can you do it once more in one of the mode you used earlier?
