Echolink at
NIAR
A demonstration
of Digital Communication Technologies was organised at
RAJ486.
Echolink, ISSTV and other Digital Communication modes were among the those
Amateur Radio communication technologies that were demonstrated to
K.H.S.GANGARAJU. But Not now Becoz i m not a License Holder when i got License
from Ministry of Communications Then after I will Do this........!
HF-BBS -2000 SYSTEM
BBS
that provides for HF to HF, HF to VHF text message transfer as well as HF / VHF
to Internet E-Mail transfer It uses Pactor 1 & 2 for semi automatic HF
Operations.
HF
BBS Service that allows you to pickup your mail anywhere in the world.
It
has the backbone network on the Internet.
Email
transfer, position reporting
(GPS & GIS), weather
and bulletin services, and emergency communications are now available to the
amateur radio community by linking radio to the Internet.
q
Allows
all participating winlink mail box operations to share their message databases.
q
Utilizes
enabling technologies and sound operating practices to provide a
full-featured radio digital message transfer system, worldwide.
q
Provides
mobile
user, whether on the high seas, jungles of a remote region, other helpful
material whenever or wherever they need it.
q
The
ability to use these facilities is especially valuable in an emergency when
local communications is disrupted and where accuracy of information is
paramount.
Slow Scan
Television
Think
of all the methods hams use to communicate with each other. The
short list would include speech, data and Morse code. Did you forget images? At
420 MHzand up, hams routinely exchange live, full-motion video. It’s called
fast-scan television (FSTV)—the same TV you’re accustomed to seeing at home.
FSTV is a fun mode, but the transmitted range is limited to a few hundred miles
under the best conditions. In addition, special transmitters and receivers are
required. But what if you wanted to share images over thousands of miles? You
could take a fixed (non moving) image and slowly scan it line by line,
converting the color and brightness variations into audio tones. Feed the audio
tones to an ordinary SSB voice trans-ceiver and you can send this information
almost anywhere in the world. On the receiving end, the audio tones are
translated back into an image on a computer screen. Hams call this technique
slow-scan television (SSTV). Although it has neither the move-ment or the high
resolution of FSTV, the advantage of SSTV isthat you can send pictures over
great distances without relaying devices or special transmitting gear by using
the propagation char-acteristic of the high-frequency bands. Thanks to the
proliferation of personal computers and soundcards, it has never been easier to
enter the world of SSTV. Most SSTV activity takes place on 20 meters, but
you’ll find it on other bands as well. Hams licensed as Technicians should
note that SSTV can be used on VHF, too. You’ll find activity on 6 meters from
time to time, and a few amateurs have even swapped SSTV images via satellite!
