NAME

       gmfsk - MFSK terminal for GNOME

SYNOPSIS

       gmfsk

DESCRIPTION

       gmfsk  is  a  terminal  for  MFSK16,  RTTY  and  Throb, three digital modulation formats used on HF radio
       particularly by radio amateurs. MFSK is an acronym for multi-tone frequency shift keying.

       gmfsk demodulates signals received through the sound card and displays the resulting text on the  screen.
       In transmit mode, typed text is modulated and transmitted through the sound card.

       Circuits for connecting the sound card to a receiver or transceiver are readily available on the web.

OPTIONS

       Standard GNOME options may be used.

       GMFSK must be configured through the "Settings" menu when first used.

NOTES

       MFSK activity is commonly found around 14.080 MHz on the amateur 20m band.

       Although  GMFSK  is  free  software, transmission of any signal and of MFSK, RTTY and/or Throb signals in
       particular is subject to the laws of the government of your country. Receiving on non-amateur frequencies
       may also be prohibited.
