It was great to hear George’s voice again. I was a big fan of his “Chat with the Designers” podcast. And it was great to see that Pete Eaton WB9FLW (an old friend of SolderSmoke) was also involved in this presentation. <\/b><\/p>\n

At FDIM George was talking about Coherent CW. Now, my views on CW have been made quite clear, but I am going to deliberately avoid snide comments about how Coherent CW might be a contradiction in terms. Thank you. I think this is something that Pete N6QW and I can agree on. <\/b><\/p>\n

Nevertheless, this is all technically interesting. This reminds me of what happens with WSPR. But I wasn’t quite sure what George was getting at with his discussion of the phase of the incoming signal — I can see the need to get the receivers’ narrow filter exactly on the transmitting station’s frequency, but why the phase? <\/b><\/p>\n

Here is Bob Crane’s interview with George: <\/b><\/p>\n

Thanks George, thanks Pete, and thanks Bob. <\/b><\/p>\n
