[amsat-bb] Re: Full Duplex radio?

[Greg Dolkas]

Interesting rig.  I'm going to guess that "Inspection" is part of some sort
of Scanning function, as it's an obvious feature not listed elsewhere.
Stun and Kill are probably Pause and Stop or Cancel.  Revive would be
Resume.  Not sure about Monitor.  Maybe it opens the squelch?  Ah, perhaps
remotely turns on the transmitter so one can monitor what's going on at the
remote side?  It's full duplex, so technically you could do this.  Not sure
how it would ID, however.

The Vice Control, by context next to the Master Control, would be a
secondary role, like vice president.  The way they are depicted, Master is
more of an Admin / Manager role, and Vice a User / Operator mode, with the
ID codes used as remote access keys.

I'm a bit concerned about their knowledge of Ham Radio, and their intended
market.  They seem to be going out of their way to make it like a miniature
phone system (the rig can "ring" when "called"), with 15 number codes (like
speed dials?) and individual Rig IDs.  The out of band examples with the
repeater diagram suggest a casual regard for the law, at least by the
manual's author.

Maybe the Vice Control could use the Stun and Kill functions to maintain
order?

Wouff-Hong, good buddy..
