PACTOR

GB7CIP located in Locator Map Square IO91WH.
Is an International LF/HF PACTOR, TCP/IP,  AX25 BBS Wireless and Amprnet Mail 
Live real-time Gateway for the Local Amateur Radio Community in England.
Providing Amateur Radio Mail/Bulletins to and from Local and Oversea forwarding service.

This has now been enhanced to include Full Duplex PACTOR 1, 2, 3 Gateway operating on the LF/HF (Low Frequency/High Frequency) Amateur Radio Shortwave bands.

So far separate LF/HF multiple dipole aerials, 3 element Mosley Mustang HF beam, and a 5 band LF/HF Vertical have been added to the 'SKYWAVES' aerial farm for LF/HF PACTOR use.
 
Two of these are connected and automatically selected depending on time of day and the Forwarding BBS Partner being called by the LF/HF Full Duplex (PD1) PACTOR LinFBB BBS system. Leaving the other for Short Wave DX use.

The HF 3 element beam direction is now automatically controlled by the Linfbb BBS forwarding PACTOR interface.
 June 2022 Note: the Heavy Duty HAM MVX Rotator Stuck beaming Long Path VK2 :(((.....

The main PACTOR LF/HF Radio is a KENWOOD TS-480SAT and power is supplied via
MY-DEL MP-30S WIV 30AMP PSU

This facility will allow access to the GB7CIP Amateur Radio GBR Mail and Bulletin server via the Short Wave Amateur Radio bands. In addition to VHF UHF and TELNET via Wireless amprnet (AMateurPacketRadioNETwork) and also the Internet.

Gateway facilities from LF/HF to VHF/UHF (VHF/UHF to HF) (VHF<>UHF<>NetRom) is available via the GB7CIP LINFBB 'G' gateway command.
Enter GWAY  BBS command when connected to the GB7CIP BBS for details.

There is also a simple FBB Convers 'C' command. Note the PACTOR infterfaces operates in Full Duplex mode. PD1
Where PACTOR configured for Users can liaise, chat to G4APL Paul (and others) if he is around and notices you connected to the FBB Convers server.
Stay logged to the FBB Convers for five minutes to give Paul a chance to login to the FBB convers server.

Some background
PacTOR (Packet Teleprinting On Radio) has combined the best features of both AMTOR (AMateur Teleprinting Over Radio) and Packet to improve the efficiency of HF digital communications. Like Packet and AMTOR, PACTOR sends error free data using a handshaking method.

By convention PACTOR uses USB (Upper Side Band) at with high low frequency tones set to TONE 4 followed by changing the following to recommended values as per the extract from the SCS Manual
TONE 4
MARK 1600Hz
SPACE 1400Hz
Centre Frequency 1500Hz
TR 0 (Default) TX and RX Shift normal MARK using the high tone and SPACE using the low tone

Note - If your Data Controller is not set to the above tones. To find YOUR dial frequency on PACTOR
on LSB: CF + CFT
on USB: CF - CFT

Client Windows software
NcWinPtc
is a terminal program for the SCS controllers PK232 and PK900 (with all files)
Paul has also used this to drive his TS2000e TNC Sub receiver via the 9600bd serial interface
for 1200bd and 9600bd FM Packet.
And also confirmed that
Alpha4 Packet interface drives the TS2000e
Internal TNC via the serial port interface 9600bd and RF at 1200bd and 9600bd connecting to GB7CIP 70cm Interfaces using Windows7.
Not able to test under Windows10 leave that to the 'readers' to try out.

KAM XL
If you have a KAM XL there is a default tone pair that are configurable
that have been encountered.
USB
High 2295Hz (default)  adjustable 50-4000Hz)
Low  2125Hz (default)  adjustable 50-4000Hz)

So for USB Frequencies
MARK 14094.000 - 2295Hz
DIAL=14091.705 kHz

Kantronics All Mode Communicator
uses HF tone Pair 1800/1600Hz default
Software used for our successful testing two way communication one to one and BBS access
Airmail3.4.062 HAM  with  Centre Frequency set to 1500Hz (Tones 1600Hz/1400Hz)
How to configure airmail3 to access GB7CIP is detailed further down the page

MFJ2178B
If you have a MFJ1278B there are two different tone pairs
that have been encountered.
The lower pair are according to an old handbook
USB
High 2295Hz
Low  2115Hz

So for USB Frequencies
MARK 14094.000 - 2295Hz
DIAL=14091.705 kHz
or
The higher pair are according to an MFJ1278 that G4APL connected to.
High 2310Hz
Low  2110Hz

So for USB Frequencies
MARK 14094.000 - 2295Hz
DIAL=14091.690 kHz

PK232MBX
If you have a PK232MBX the tones are according to the handbook
High 2435Hz
Low  1985Hz

So for USB Frequencies
MARK 14094.000 - 2435Hz
DIAL= 14091.565 kHz

MARK 21008.000 - 2435Hz
DIAL= 21095.565 kHz

MARK 21112.000 - 2435Hz
DIAL= 21109.565.565 kHz

G4APL still has to carry out tests with a PK232MBX partner
Centre Frequency Tones (CFT) of your particular tnc/controller is the lowest + highest tone divided by two or the mean of mark and space tones, e.g. the CFT of a US PK232 is 2210 Hz.

Soundcard Data Modems
For those of you that are using Soundcard Data Modems, you can also access GB7CIP Pactor Interface configuring your soundcard driver software to PACTOR P1 mode.

The CFT of all SCS controllers is software controlled.
On Pactor-2 a CFT 2000 Hz may be considered. It allows instant switching between USB and LSB and a read-out frequency of - 2 kHz or + 2 kHz respectively.

On Pactor-3 the CFT is fixed to 1500 Hz, USB only.

PACTOR1 300bd FSK 200Hz shift

PACTOR2 300bd effective test throughput 3 to 4 times faster than PACTOR1
With very good propagation conditions this can increase to 4 to 6 times.
Maximum speed of 140 characters per second can be achieved.
bandwidth 450Hz

PACTOR3 under average conditions 3 to 4 times faster than PACTOR2
in good conditions can exceed 5 times.
Maximum throughout
uncompressed 2700 Bits per second (approx. 270 Chars)
compressed 5200 Bits per second (approx. 520 Chars)
bandwidth 2000Hz

The PACTOR system only supports a single one to one connection.
July 2005. Paul had been loaned a SCS PTCII PACTOR controller to enable further experimenting to
be carried out. Yes there has been a high learning curve and some hair pulling to identify and diagnose problems. The lack of scanning was eventually traced to a bug in the xfbb 7.04j server software.

Turned out to be a known problem (Dec 2003). Modified the source code and recompiled the program.

In November 2005 Paul Installed a SCS PTCII Pro PACTOR controller.

Frequency scanning now working as of 18 November 2005 of the 10, 20 and 40 Metre 'Mark' frequencies listed below. Paul looks forward to any testing feedback from HF PACTOR users and adding new international forwarding partners.

Configuration used by GB7CIP can be viewed by selecting the PACTOR GB7CIP Tab

select the Gateway  G command, then enter 8 for the Pactor Interface
Enter F to display the available frrequency List
Select  number assign to the displayed frequency
Entering command CQ

This system operates in Full Duplex mode (Sending/Receiving data automatically). in realtime.
The remote system needs to have Full Duplex enabled.

Of course you can use the command C callsign of the remote pactor system

G4APL is always looking for new HF PACTOR forwarding partners to Other Parts of the world. 
As an alternative to the local Internet connection which does fail from time to time.
Due to ISP bandwidth changes causing the local VDSL router occasionally not to automatically re-synch correctly.

October 2023
NOTE: The UK VDSL Telephone network will be switched off by December 202
5,
Due to the the above, the DATA Internet Links to GB7CIP's QTH will be converted to a Fibre Cable DATA connection. (Road still to be recabled with fibre)
There will of course be some downtime while the new fibre cable is installed, and the Updated Internet Cable Modem Connection is reconfigued, as well as G4APL's Main Internet facing Gateway firewall/router and Analogue Telephone..

Paul G4APL has a plan which he has discussed with his current ISP Technical Support..(Very Helpfull)
Will hopefually have full Back up Radio HF LF Pactor and 70cm UHF forwarding arrangements in place.

Using

Bulletin list. OUTPOST appears not to keep a record
of the Last Bulletin Message Listed. Which is a Shame.

L will list all new Bulletins and Messages since you last connect
to the BBS and logged off with the B(ye) Command, which resets the
last counter.

To get round this Paul changed the
List Bulletin command from LB to L

It would appear that OUTPOST Packet Message Manager does not download
