The last few days I have been using Scilab
to simulate various types of CPM. It is much
more fun playing with stuff rather than following
the maths. Well it is for me.

I have now finished the first book I bought on
CPM and have just started another book. The new
book is on estimating symbol timing and carrier
recovery. It covers PSK as well as CPM.

I enjoyed watching the AMSAT-UK Colloquium
on the BATC site this weekend. It has been many
years since I was last on the satellites. There is only
some much I can do at once.

I am also trying to figure out how best to mount
the QS1R I have into a 19inch rack without
damaging it. I have a number of similar units that
all have the same problem in that there is no easy
way of mounting them.
