New digital communications email reflector set up

Amateurs interested in digital communications will be pleased to hear that a new email reflector covering this area of the hobby has recently been set up. The Yahoo Groups email reflector focuses on the emerging world of digital amateur radio communications. It will be used primarily to discuss the use of digital voice and data communication techniques on the VHF and UHF bands. Technologies such as D-STAR, APCO P25, packet radio, high speed multi media, Wi-Fi, PSK and FSK will be covered. If you would like to join the group, please click here. On a similar note, if you have written a paper on digital radio communications, you might want to submit it for presentation at the 26th Annual ARRL and TAPR Digital Communications Conference to be held on 28 to 30 September in Connecticut, USA. The organisers of the conference have just put out a call for papers. You do not need to attend the event in order to have your paper published. The organisers have also informed GB2RS that papers will be published exactly as submitted and authors will retain all rights. The submission deadline is 31 July 2007. Please send papers to Maty Weinberg at the ARRL, 225 Main St, Newington, Connecticut, 06111. You can also email submissions to maty@arrl.org. [GB2RS]
