for communication over a copper pair into an extremely noisy area,
manned by a non-code-proficient mechanic, at sea with intense
vibration.

seek standalone (ie, not a computer-sound-card-based solution)
hellschreiber gear. if it works nicely, might attract official
purchasing in quantity

How does the copper pair feed out over the sea? Is there
a ginormous drum on the clifftops, perhaps?

where does the query mention over the sea ?
merely "at"

OK it is a computer soundcard solution but would a netbook with a solid
state drive to cope with the foundation not be viable? Small, compact, uses
little power and will drive Hell easily and is simple to use. With a little
dismantling and repackaging, can easily be made watertight and even more
shockproof and a custom Linux build can make it a turnkey appliance.

That would surely be a bit primitive in today's world.

If your main concern is the noise cancelling and your operatives can
manage to operate a radio then the Motorola Mototrbo range of radios
have exceptionally good noise cancelling. I have installed them in
paper mills and power stations where it is impossible to speak to the
person next to you because of the noise and they still work well. On
one dem' the bosses refused to accept the operator was in the generator
hall until they saw him there because the audio quality was so good.

Sorry to all the wingers on uk.radio.amateur these are digital,
hence the good audio processing. :-)

I don't use Hellschreiber, but it certainly works on a small Asus
netbook, under Linux.

I have a PSK31 autospotter consisting of an Asus PC900A netbook ($200)
running Fldigi; an MFJ-1024 active antenna; and an ICOM R75.

This computer has an 8 gig SSD and is very solidly constructed. I run
Puppy Linux 4.20 operating system.

Just install Wine, then Hellschrieber. I've tried it as I say, but
don't have it installed now, I use Digipan, instead.

You'll have to add it to the applications menu yourself of course, but
that isn't difficult.

I'm using it on the PC701G also with an 8Gb SSD

They're a really good bit of kit...Be aware that all the units are hand
built, so may take a while to arrive (Mine took 3 months, but I did
order from the first batch) - I'm not sure what the turn around
currently is, they may have a number of ready built units in stock!

Its software upgradeable, now does RTTY, and I think CW isnt far off,
you can add USB to it, which makes upgrading easier, and it also does
logging..I think its probably best to look at the site for the lowdown..

The only moan I have is the battery compartment, its a bit of a fiddle
to get 2 9v/PP3 batteries in there...but once you've got the knack, its
simple!

Not used mine actually 'in the field' as of yet, but the RX performance
alone is astounding!
