How to PSK? What do all those funny letters mean?

This is an interesting one. Strictly speaking 599 doesn't apply to PSK. It means something like signal strength, readability, and tone. That, plus a lot of users just give everyone a 599, no matter what their signal is. I read somewhere about a alternative numerical exchange for digital users, I'll try to find it again. You may mean QSA 1-5 -- readability - with QSA 5 being a "solid" contact. I've started using that system - it makes more sense. If there is a problem with the "cleanliness" of the signal, tell to Op in words what you are observing. -- 73 de K2ASP - Phil Kane From a Clearing in the Silicon Forest Beaverton (Washington County) Oregon e-mail: k2asp [at] arrl [dot] net |
