Funny you mention this, yes I have been working with Peter Helfert on this. I have a loaner modem and hope to start testing this weekend. Will keep you all updated. My goal is to have a fair assessment of the system so we can address some of the allegations out there. 73 Ria, N2RJ On Sat, 12 Oct 2019 at 12:27, Michael Ritz <w7vo@comcast.net> wrote:
FYI; Note that it apparently doesn't decode PACTOR 4, but maybe that's only because that version's not legal here yet.
Ria, any comment on this?

This has been possible for a long time, but this may be the easiest turnkey solution

PMON - An Independent Pactor/Winlink Monitor For The Raspberry Pi
Configure
SCS, the company that created Pactor, has released software for Linux to allow over-the-air monitoring of Pactor 1/2/3 transmissions for meaning. Besides monitoring Pactor 1/2/3, PMON automatically decompresses B2F/LZHUF compressed messages on the fly. This is very useful for monitoring Winlink email transfers. The program requires only minimal hardware: an inexpensive Raspberry Pi 3 Model B+ (minimum) computer and an inexpensive USB sound device. An SCS Pactor modem is not needed.
The program is a free download for radio amateurs from a Linux repository provided by SCS. Easy-to-follow instructions, program information and documentation are provided on this SCS web page.
Thank you to John Huggins and Gordon Gibby, MD for their original decoding programs, and to Hans-Peter Helfert and the SCS team for this needed contribution to the amateur radio community!
