With all good wishes, Kevin, WB4AIO. Why don't you tune in and see? I generally don't rag-chew and DX at the same time, as I'm right on the edge of legible print and this makes casual chit-chat less than casual. |

First, don't just single out PSK; there are many other digital (keyboard-to-keyboard) modes, RTTY, PACTOR and Hellschreiber are just a few that come to mind. Next, you ask "Is it conversations or signal reports?" The answer is, yes...both. It can be whatever you like or prefer...although if it is a rare DX station with many waiting, it's bad manners to have a nice chat; just a sig report and make way for the next guy in line. I've had many nice RTTY and PACTOR chats. Per Dave's suggestion, to receive PSK or RTTY all you need is your receiver, a computer with a sound card and any one of a variety of free software programs. Easy and fun... |
