Today for the first time, club member Peter VK3TPM, ran a FreeDV RADEV1 net. Participating stations were: VK5KVA Jack, VK3PCC Peter, VK5MA Ian, VK5LN Michael, VK2BLQ Stephen, VK2GTS Gary. We could see VK2ABO was hearing us and we had reports from VK3RV.
A recent video on the Tech Minds YouTube channel was the trigger for at least one of the participants who ran FreeDV for the first time.
I note that in the digitalvoice google group Mooneer K6AQ posted “I think it would be a good idea to have a weekly FreeDV net for North American users (similar to what’s already done in Europe, Argentina/South America and now Australia)”.
It would be great to have even more stations participating and do let us know if you need a hand getting started.
