I hope everyone had an enjoyable holiday season! So far I’ve heard of just one Es event just before Christmas that very briefly made it to FM and another Es event that was noticed by Chris Dunne down in Florida that went briefly to FM from Colombia. F2 skip faded away somewhat as the solar flux dropped down to the 130s. So, all in all, December has been mostly uneventful. But keep looking because anything can still happen. We’ve prepared a “State of the Club” message for this issue.

THE HISTORY OF THE TELEPHONE STUDENT VERSION NAME: DATE: The telephone is one of the most important inventions. It lets people talk to each other at the same time across long distances, changing the way we communicate today. Alexander Graham Bell, the inventor of the telephone CENSUS.GOV/SCHOOLS HISTORY | PAGE 1 THE HISTORY OF THE TELEPHONE STUDENT VERSION 1. Like many inventions, the telephone was likely thought of many years before it was invented, and by many people. But it wasn’t until 1876 when a man named Alexander Graham Bell, pictured on the previous page, patented the telephone and was allowed to start selling it. Can you guess what “patented” means? CENSUS.GOV/SCHOOLS HISTORY | PAGE 2 THE HISTORY OF THE TELEPHONE STUDENT VERSION 2. The picture below, from over 100 years ago, shows Alexander Graham Bell using one of his first telephones to make a call from New York to Chicago.

In this study, Dual Tone Multi Frequency (DTMF) signal generation and detection is implemented by using Goertzel Algorithm in MATLAB software. The DTMF signals are generated by using Cool Edit Pro Version 2.0 program for DTMF tone detection. The DTMF signal generation and detection algorithm are based on International Telecommunication Union (ITU) recommendations. Frequency deviation, twist, energy and time duration tests are performed on the DTMF signals.

  • What to Do If You Hear Radio Communications on Your Telephone
    What to do if you hear radio communications on your telephone Interference occurs when your telephone instrument fails to "block out" a nearby radio communication. Potential interference problems begin when the telephone is built at the factory. All telephones contain electronic components that are sensitive to radio frequencies, but cordless telephones are particularly susceptible because they use radio transmitters/receivers. Cordless telephones are also highly sensitive to electrical noise, (electric fences) radio interference, and the communications of other nearby cordless phones. Cordless phones with more features like messaging, redial and intercom, contain more electronic components; this creates a greater potential for outside interference. If the manufacturer does not build in interference protection, these components may react to nearby radio communications. For example, you could hear the transmission of a local radio station through your telephone’s handset. This is not necessarily a sign that the interference is intentional or that the interfering radio transmitter is illegal but that your equipment has no, or inadequate, protection. If you own an unprotected telephone, as the radio environment around you changes, you may sometimes hear unwanted radio communications. This is a technical problem, not a law enforcement problem Because interference problems begin at the factory, you should send your complaint to the manufacturer who built your telephone. It is important that you follow through and contact the manufacturer of your phone if you are having an interference problem. The company needs to know if you are unhappy about your phone’s failure to block out radio communications. Also, the manufacturer knows the designs of its telephones and may be able to suggest a solution for your specific phone.

  • POTS Modems Vs IP Telephony
    Modems Vs IP Telephony Our Hotline, Vector, Matrix and BlueBox products all use V.34 modems designed for operation on conventional phone lines. Best modem performance occurs in the “classic” telephone setup of an analog line to the phone company, a digital conversion to a 64 kb/s path all the way to the other phone office, where the call goes back to analog for delivery to the other codec. The weak links have always been the analog loops at both ends, and any constriction in the digital path that results in a lower data rate. All of these things raise the noise seen by the modems, and may result in low connect speeds or intermittent behavior. There’s a new issue, however. If the network between the analog ends is done on IP circuits, the data throughput may drop, and will certainly be variable. IP traffic is sent with data packets that may be routed over widely different paths, or perhaps dropped altogether. The resulting delays, out-of-sequence data, and dead spots on Voice Over IP (VOIP) networks may be perfectly fine for voice calls, but are downright nasty for modem use. Even worse, data compression schemes such as V.729 that are used to shrink IP telephone channels down to 8 kb/s or less will absolutely keep a modem from operating. You’ll probably never even get a connection. Note that the IP conversion may be happening locally, or over the long-distance network. You are probably familiar with VOIP services offered by telephone and cable companies, as well as independent companies such as Vonage.
