CATCH ME ON
Olivia, Feld Hell, and SSTV Modes
As solar cycle 24 comes to an end, the modern rddio amateur has an alternative to a four-year FT8 sentence during the solar minimum.
HERE IT IS, HAMS!
OLIVIA
Olivia MFSK is the miracle Digital Mode that you've been waiting for.
Join the many fellow radio amateurs who discovered the pleasure of digital ragchewing in OLIVIA MFSK Digital Modes.
REMEMBER THAT IF YOU USE THE DIAL FREQUENCY (THE SECOND FREQUENCY PER ROW),
SET YOUR WATERFALL CENTER AT 1500 Hz)
PLEASE, TURN ON RSID (TXID and RXID in FLdigi)!
I like Ragchewing and this is a great ragchew mode....
Please no Macro QSO's (just type to me)
You can find more info on this great Digital ragchew mode at:
