You are totally right about the bandwidth limitations on the CB rigs, SB. Ham's get to use 10-KHz of spectrum without the SSB guys complaining too much, and that gives them a lot more headroom to play around with their audio characteristics for sure. With the FCC clamping down on things with tighter restrictions, it's a wonder in and of itself that you guys can have decent audio on AM. I'd also be torn between high fidelity and messing around with a vintage piece of gear. Personally, I'd do what you are doing, leaving most (if not all) of them alone, for the most part. An EQ on those rigs will probably solve a lot of the problems as well, should they exist, although I'm pretty sure you are already doing this, SB. I have heard your modified Galaxy many, many times, SB. I listen to a new (to me) videogate just before I'm going to take a nap, and I think there might be only 3 or 4 of them I've not heard yet . I usually fall asleep to them, and most of the time I have to rewind to the point were I dosed off to hear the rest of one . Sometimes it takes me a few days to watch an entire video because of this . Anyway, your Galaxy rig sounds fantastic on SF's rigs! The frequency response coming through the videos is awesome on 441's rigs. Hmmm. Next gate, would you mind using your Galaxy and asking 441 if he could use one of the newer bandwidth-limited rigs? I'm curious to see what you can pull off with that kind of situation for sure. That's already happened. and on this gate the Galaxy doesn't sound nearly as good through the small speaker and receiver bandwidth limitations of the Cobra radio Pete was using. I like to bring the Galaxy out when I know Pete is using the Hallicrafters. That way I know it's going to sound impressive. But that underscores a very important point. Having extra transmit bandwidth is wasted if the receivers can't pass it. Well, I knew that would be the situation, but I'm sure it still sounds a lot better than other rigs that haven't been modified. I just want to hear the true limitations of that particular setup. Also, you're completely right about wanting to use the Galaxy while Pete is using the Hallicrafters. No better time to fire that thing up, for sure! 73, Randy AB5NI

Stock Mic Night was undoubtedly one of the better CRR's. Thanks again for the gate. Stock Mic Night had me digging in the drawer for a stock coffin mic that worked. I went thru three or four before I found a couple that worked. I noticed Spitfire wasn't reaching for the AF Gain as much due to the more level audio playing field We'll have to do more "theme based" CRR's this winter. We still have yet to do the mobile CRR. Maybe we can do a walkie-talkie night, and a less than 23 channel night, and maybe even an SSB night...... I can't wait for the Battleship and Chess videogates!! . I used to love playing Chess over the air on CB and Ham radio. I might even be convinced to get on the air with you guys via 441's link to play in the AD&D videogate, which would probably be a world first . 73, Randy AB5NI

I have the rig on VOX. I would give you remote control, but the wife changed the router password and forgot what it was, so I can't get in and open the required ports. My Skype name for radio acces is aa3repete. 441

For some strange reason, Skype doesn't want to work too well under Windows 8.1, but I should be able to muck around with it and get it to behave correctly. What I'll do is add you, call you, we can chat a bit and make sure the thing works before I try the link. 73, Randy AB5NI

Okay. I just sent you a request. I'm "noperations" on Skype. Wanted either NOP or NoOPeration on there, but they were both taken. NOP is an assembly language instruction that literally means "do nothing." You guys add me. 73, Randy AB5NI

Well we used to play an occasional Chess or Battleship game over the air back in the day. The problem with doing it on CRR is that it's not something everyone can participate in at the same time, and it can probably burn up our 2 hour window pretty quickly. But you never know.......

Although I have a vast love of current technology, it is very nice to know the rock-solid foundations of our technical existence. Without folks like Tesla, Armstrong, Faraday and the like, we'd all still be babes in the woods, for sure. To quote Einstein, "I stand on the shoulders of the giants that came before me." I've also found it very enlightening and enjoying to study older technology, watching as the years go by until we've reached current-day designs and applications. I have an idea about the link. There is a server-client program out there on the net called "Ventrilo." Basically, it uses a server-client model where clients all log on to the server remotely, and when somebody speaks, the server sends an audio stream to every client. What you could do is log on to the server via the client and feed your client audio to the remote base. This would allow multiple users access to the remote base simultaneously. Whatever would be said on the ventrilo server by anyone would be fed to the remote base. I realise that you can continually add users via Skype and pull off the same thing, but using ventrilo would allow folks to join without any user intervention. Not only that, but the audio stream from ventrilo is much, much better than Skype. It is extremely rare for ventrilo to drop packets, and I've used it for many, many years and have only seen it happen maybe one or two times. 73, Randy AB5NI

I would be nice to have "conference" capability for the remote base, that all users can TX to us as well as be heard in the digital group.

I'm not sure how Ventrillo's PTT capability would mesh with Pete's Kenwood control program, which also includes that function. I suppose VOX operation would be easily doable, but might cause issues when too many people are on at once. But it might be an interesting upgrade to the existing link system. It's served us well, getting Doc Hammer and Hightower into our little local group, when they didn't have locals of their own. It's had its share of problems, most notably dropouts and packet loss, which typically get blamed on Skype, but I don't know for sure who the real culprit was.

I have a ventrilo server already installed on one of my servers. We could all try it out so you guys could see what I'm talking about and test it, making sure things are compatible and such. For the client, all you have to do is this: * Name: <Your Name/handle> * Server IP: <Server's IP address> * Port Number: <The port number the server listens on and transmits packets back to the client.> * Password: <The password to access the server.> I"m using the freeware version of the server, which I believe is something like 5-8 seats. That should be more than enough to handle CCR remotely. Ventrilo also offers file-transfer capability, text chat, which also allows you to display clickable links to stuff users would link in chat, use of multiple speech-compression codecs, and a lot of other stuff too numerous to mention . 73, Randy

It's not like Skype where coverage is global. But that should actually be better as the server load will come nowhere near what a system like Skype would have to deal with. So Pete would have to install the server, and everyone else would run a client program. This sounds like a job for KOMX Cosmic radio........

Although Ventrilo is mainly used by the gaming community to provide voice communications amongst players, it it also used for voice communication for companies, and it's almost exactly like being on ham radio or CB, except that all the traffic is coming via the internet. If Pete was to take his client audio from ventrilo on his computer and feed it to the remote base on xmit, anything said on ventrilo by anyone would be xmitted over the air via his remote base. Doing this would allow 4 or 5 remote users to talk and listen to CRR simultaneously. I already have a server setup to do this, and I'd be glad to let you guys use it for CRR. Pete could install it locally, but a lot of ISP's frown upon home users using that kind of bandwidth, kind of like they frown upon their users running websites on their home machines. He can totally do it all himself, but it really depends on his setup/gear and his ISP's reaction to doing something like this. 73, Randy AB5NI

It doesn't use enough bandwidth to notice I guess. \ So audio doesn't come out of the Ventrilo server, but from one (or more) of the clients? In that case, the server can be hosted anywhere, and Pete would just have to run a client program, which is what he already does with Skype.

Basically, Pete would setup the server, logon to it himself with a client, and from there he'd take his client's received audio (broadcast from the server) and feed it to the remote base as audio input. The output of the remote base would be fed into the client on transmission. If you're interested, I can logon to my server, fire up my Ventrilo server, and we can play around with it so you completely understand the concepts, SB. 73, Randy AB5NI

Since he seems to have an issue getting into his router, if it required new ports to be opened, he won't be able to make those changes. On the other hand, if I could get Cosmic Radio (Art) to host the server, I'm sure the clients would be a breeze to setup.

Super thanks for the gate Spitfire! A true pleasure to listen too. I dig running the tube enabled Royale on CRR. My "interestingly" modified Sonar FS-23 didn't sound half-bad either. I do think I like the Turner +2 mic on it.

BTW was the audio better on the new tablet¿ I thought it was but the video frame rate seemed slower. county Wide Radio 441 Since you asked, here is Sandbagger's world acclaimed critique of the new tablet and the gate: 1. The audio level was much better. Definitely louder...... But (and you knew there had to be a but in there....), 2. The audio sounded fuzzy around the edges. Especially with those who were loudest. 1/4 Wave Dave, Sparky, and Tickle seemed the worst. Even my HiFi Galaxy seemed "Boofy" on loud peaks. I thought it might have been my setup, so I listened to an older gate and it was fine. 3. The audio and video were out of sync. The S meter would deflect before the people would talk, and then drop before they finished. Not sure if YouTube has a utility to correct that. I'm thinking they did, but I might be thinking of my video editing program.
