SW 6050.12A CHANGE SUPPLEMENTS OPTIONAL CHANGE SUPPLEMENTS OPTIONAL TO TO BASIC BASIC 12/12/01 SW 6050.12A FOREWORD The radio frequency spectrum is a finite, vital, and very limited natural resource available to all countries of the world. This international resource serves mankind in innumerable ways, and each country exercises its own sovereign rights in the use of the electromagnetic waves. Because the radio spectrum knows no bounds, its use cannot be restricted to individual countries. Requirements for use of this resource generally exceed the amount available; therefore, it is necessary that international, national, and regional spectrum management be rigidly practiced. The purpose of this spectrum management order is to present radio frequency spectrum information, guidance, and policy to those organizations using or administrating the radio frequency spectrum within the Southwest Region.

We also welcome news from other ATV groups around the USA. We encourage you to forward this newsletter on to other ATV ham friends in your clubs. Quote from John - WB0CMC: "If you have a good comb generator would that help if you’re having a bad AIR day?" NEW 2ed WEEKLY ATV NET: Due to the pandemic, and everyone being required to stay at home, we are all getting "Cabin Fever" and missing our social interactions with friends and society in general. Thus, the consensus of most of the BATVC members, is that we should hold two ATV nets each week for the duration. Our regular net has been on Thursday afternoons at 3pm local time, with Don, N0YE, as net control. Colin, WA2YUN, has suggested we do the second net on Sunday afternoons. So, let's do it starting this Sunday, the 29th, at 3pm local time. I propose we use a different format with a round table discussion of various topics. Our Thursday nets, seem to be for one ham to talk for several minutes on one or more subjects. For the new Sunday net, let's try making much shorter TV transmissions and expressing our thoughts on a particular subject and then turning it over to another for their comments.

UNITED STATES MILITARY LISTINGS Joint Chiefs of Staff Nets High Frequency Global Communications System (HF-GCS) The U.S. Air Force High Frequency (HF) Global Communications System (HF-GCS) is a worldwide network that currently consist of 14 high-power HF stations which provide air/ground HF command and control radio communications between all Department of Defense (DoD) ground agencies, aircraft and ships. Allied military and other aircraft are also provided support in accordance with agreements and international protocols as appropriate. The HF-GCS is not dedicated to any service or command, but supports all authorized users on a traffic precedence basis. On June 1, 1992, the former Global HF System (GHFS) was created by consolidating other U.S. Air Force (USAF) and U.S. Navy (USN) HF networks, including the USAF Global Command and Control System (GCCS), the Navy’s Ship-to-Shore High Command (HICOM) network, and the dedicated Strategic Air Command (SAC) Giant Talk System. The goal of the merger was to develop one worldwide non-dedicated HF network capable of providing Command and Control (C2) HF communications support to all authorized DoD aircraft and ground stations. As of 1 October 2002, the former GHFS network is now known as the HF Global Communications System (HF-GCS).

  • Chapter 2 Radio Receiver Characteristics
    Source: Communications Receivers: DSP, Software Radios, and Design Chapter 1 Basic Radio Considerations 1.1 Radio Communications Systems The capability of radio waves to provide almost instantaneous distant communications without interconnecting wires was a major factor in the explosive growth of communica- tions during the 20th century. With the dawn of the 21st century, the future for communi- cations systems seems limitless. The invention of the vacuum tube made radio a practical and affordable communications medium. The replacement of vacuum tubes by transistors and integrated circuits allowed the development of a wealth of complex communications systems, which have become an integral part of our society. The development of digital signal processing (DSP) has added a new dimension to communications, enabling sophis- ticated, secure radio systems at affordable prices. In this book, we review the principles and design of modern single-channel radio receiv- ers for frequencies below approximately 3 GHz. While it is possible to design a receiver to meet specified requirements without knowing the system in which it is to be used, such ig- norance can prove time-consuming and costly when the inevitable need for design compro- mises arises. We strongly urge that the receiver designer take the time to understand thor- oughly the system and the operational environment in which the receiver is to be used. Here we can outline only a few of the wide variety of systems and environments in which radio re- ceivers may be used. Figure 1.1 is a simplified block diagram of a communications system that allows the transfer of information between a source where information is generated and a destination that requires it.
