As I understand it, GMSK as used by D-Star is just two tones.??
In GMSK, the transition from one tone to the other is made as soft as possible
to reduce the bandwidth of the resultant signal, the key click filter on a?
CW transmitter does something similar.
Looking around the web, I don't see much talk about D-Star modulation for HF.
My guess is that anybody using D-Star on HF just uses the same modulation scheme
as on VHF, ignoring the FCC's 300 baud max symbol rate.? ? Does anybody know for sure?
If AM phone is still legal, I suppose they would argue that a 6khz wide D-Star
transmission should be too.? Or perhaps I am wrong about the 300 baud max.

I thought that FreeDV was a multiple carrier mode and would require a linear amp.
I was proposing to use the FreeDV codec but use the GMSK modulation type. Or another FSK type it it is better.?
I don't think there's any reason not to mix and match codecs (voice encoders) and modulation schemes.
