Hi
If we went the repeater route there is an interesting thing we might be
able to do. Good old FSK is not a very fancy modulation technique by
today's standards. We can transmit a couple of things that are a bit
more modern, but still look like FSK. Each of them have a bit of an
advantage *if* you run a fancy DSP style TU. Generating them may be a
little tough but we only have to do it on the repeater transmitter.
One thing you can do is transmit the two FSK shift tones as properly
modulated AM each with a coherent carrier. This gets you a bit better
signal to noise on the receive end. It still looks like FSK to a FSK
TU. There are a couple of other things you could do and still be "fsk
compatible" but they would take a bit more R&D.
Any Thoughts?
