You will also find that some modes, like OLIVIA and CONTESTIA, require more RF power but perform extremely well under adverse band conditions. You will find that some modes, like BPSK and QPSK require only about 25 to 40 watts to maintain a good QSO contact, while others require more power. You can select from the Modes Pane, which can be pinned to the display or by clicking on the small mode drop-down tab located in the upper left corner of the Receive Pane. Modes can also be selected by right-clicking on the waterfall and choosing from the popup menu.
The mode can be selected from a number of places in the DM-780 display, depending on how you customize your display. Each mode is subdivided into variants of the mode. These modes are BPSK, QPSK, CONTESTIA, CW, DOMINOEX, HELLSCHRIEBER (HELL), MFSK, MT63, OLIVIA, RTTY, RTTYM, THOR and THROB and VOICE. I am testing the solution and will report back here on this thread on how well it works and then cover it on my website in detail to share with the community at large.Solution home Ham Radio Deluxe User Guides Digital Master (DM-780) Digital ModesĪt present, DM-780 handles 14 of the most popular digital modes used in amateur radio. The RemAud package was written by DF3CB and is a great audio solution for this kind of project.

There is a way to key the transmitter from the audio package, but it has me stumped how to link that in when HRD already does this, hence my somewhat manual solution.
I had a devil of a time working out how to transmit the stream on transmit and I still am not overly pleased with my solution, but it does seem to work >) On the client audio stream I simply press the microphone button on the clinet or the "T" key on my keyboard just before I transmit the signal from Digital Master 780 - once the transmit is done, I unclick the microphone and begin receiving audio again on the stream - It works nicely and I have a two-way stream now to pull and push audio to the station from the laptop with Ham Radio Deluxe and the RemAud solution. The real trick was getting audio TO the station. After a little troubleshooting, I was getting the radio audio via stream to the laptop and my Digital Master audio was pulling in perfect PSK31 warbles >) At the client (laptop end) I configured a similar setup.

I set the server up on the station PC and configured the port and user settings and then the soundcard setup. I found a two-way streaming solution called RemAud at - This is a client server audio solution that will do two way audio to the remote client. I would appreciate any insights from folks who have done this before.Īctually KA9JLM - yes - that is true - but the language in the guide is misleading at best - the encode/decode is done by the PSK program at the laptop, in this case it is Digital Master 780 - The issue is getting the audio stream to and from the station and I figured out a pretty nifty solution that is almost perfect without having to use Skype. I would guess the RigBlaster on my station end would either work straight off or need to interface somehow with the Skype client while my remote laptop will easily work once I were to connect and call the station Skype client. Skype seems to be the application I am seeing most often as the transport of choice but no-where can I find a comprehensive discussion of how this is all done. However, my station does key up once I hit send, so half the battle is won >) When I did try it as the manual seems to indicate, it didn't work since it was clear no modulated PSK tones were warbling their way to my station setup. On stopping to reason this out, it makes sense that I *do* need the sound card on my laptop to pass the modulated signal to the rig at the station end. Was discussed previously in this chapter. Working the digital modes like PSK31 you will not need to worry about this. Setup the ability to pass audio to and from the remote station.
After the completing of the rig control portion of a remote station you will need to
