Non symmetrical transmit-receive modes and speeds


 

Wild idea this morning when mentioning to a friend that the IC7100
will receive 9600 with the internal modem but cannot transmit (darn
transformers?) at 9600.

Maybe it doesn't have to run 9600 on both up and download. Perhaps it
could receive at 9600, like from a tcp file server, and send the ACK's
back at whatever speed worked - maybe 2400 or 3500.

If we have flexibility to configure the soundmodem separately for
transmit and receive channels - it opens up options to tune systems to
get the best available speed.

I haven't fired up/compiled DW for a few months so I don't have an up
to date running instance to check. Maybe this is already there. If
not, maybe it'll be a low hanging tweak.

Onward!

Hey Bill,

I don't know how useful this would be for most users but I would recommend to create a Github "issue" on Direwolf's Git repo to track this request.
