Carl,
What are you talking about? JT-65 is the same as CW, a single tone
that changes audio frequency in steps. No IMD. In fact one can run
a class-C amp with it, just like CW. It does take up wider bandwidth
but that is a separate issue from IMD. If they are overdriving the
amplifiers into clipping that would be bad. You can do that with CW.
I have no idea how JT65 is being utilized on 160m, so there may be
some turf battles going on. On 630m JT-65 probably takes up too much
spectrum and a NB mode like JT-9 may be more appropriate.
I would like to see a version or variant of psk-31 allowed for plain
old "rag chew" texting. RTTY may take too much bw. Packet is certainly out.
CW should be included. Is their enough room for WSPR? Or should we
develop a variant of WSJT that can do both communicating and
propagation beaconing? We need for Joe Taylor to be informed of this
discussion.
