Topic: “HF Digital Modes”
By: Steven Smith WA8LMF

Steven roams around the state providing quality
presentations on the topic of “HF Digital Modes” for the
ARRL Michigan Section. Tonight, Steven will grace us
with his presentation, covering what are the ‘digital’
modes, how are each used, what hardware and software is
needed to operate these modes, and where such hardware
and software can be aquired. You will likely learn more
about such modes as PSK31, Olivia, MFSK, MT63, QPSK, and
others, including software such as FLDIGI, that you ever
knew existed!
