Soundcard modes for fun and profit and emergency services Multnomah ARES

Packet Works like Simple, reliable hardware National, state ARES standard Digipeater support Requires strong signal Slow (5-10kb file limit) Packet (RMS) vs soundcard modes Soundcard modes Works with poor signals Huge number of hardware setup options (can be) As much as 4-10x faster Realistic file/image transfer Fussy Complicated setup

Packet (RMS) vs soundcard modes USB/Serial USB Presents as a com port Presents as a new soundcard (mic and speaker) ASCII Text Digital data Digital Interface TNC Audio

Other Soundcard hardware setups USB Presents as a new soundcard (mic and speaker) Digital data Digital Interface Audio

“Acoustic coupling” Hold the mic up to the laptop or smartphone’s speakers Works well with “forgiving” modes like SSTV and MT-63 Not great for high-speed modes or digital image transfer Who needs an interface?

Hundreds of soundcard applications 90% are for HF bands ARES is looking at three FLDigi (mac or windows) MMSSTV / MultiMode EasyPal (windows) More and more smartphone apps Soundcard Applications

Free and supported on every platform High and low speed modes Supports ICS forms Pre-written text Keyboard to keyboard chat MT-63 mode, slow but very reliable. Text only mode 8PSK mode can do file transfers of 50kb in 120 seconds FLDigi

Slow Scan Television Used for sending images – like color faxes Clarity is proportional to signal quality Gets fuzzy as signal gets worse Works with acoustic coupling MMSSTV for windows MultiScan/MultiMode for OSx DroidSSTV and SSTV (black cat) SSTV

Digital (ADTV) High Quality images Won’t work with poor signal levels – fussy in the field No more development Neighboring counties have standardized on SSTV EasyPal

Equipment Two digital kits County funded Packet, soundcard modes Signalink installed at the EOC Planning Several meetings with MCEM and county GIS EOC procedures Field procedures How is McARES using Soundcard modes? Training and critical mass We are just starting out, survey has indicated interest Looking for a digital net manager (will train!) Looking for soundcard elmers Have a council crest 440 repeater available for practice Field Team training on the digital kits Images to the County and City EOC is first on the list
