Dee:

This whole stance-proposal of yours is quite ridiculous, preposterous
and obviously only formed to put forth your own personal preferences ...

SSTV is but one GLARING example, sstv is stupid in the age of .mpg,
.avi, .divx, etc. with real-time encoding ...

In this particular subpost, I am not addressing any one mode per se.
I am discussing the issue of ignoring old methods and old people
simply because they are old. *Much is lost if one takes that approach.

Often the best results are obtained with a mix of the old and new and
the synergy between new peopl and old people.

You are simply denying this possiblity.

As far as personal preferences go, the digital modes are of no
interest to me. *I've experimented with what's available so I can help
the beginners get started. *Hopefully one of these people will go on
to develop the new and better modes that you want.

The least you could do is take a class or read a few good books on data
compaction of speech, text, images, movies, etc. ...

You appear as a child discussing college physics ...

Perhaps so. *However, I do know that the compacted mpgs, avis, etc
that I download from the internet are large even when compacted and
that's for short files. *Files of several megabytes take minutes even
on a high speed cable connection. *I'd hate to think how that would
slow down over an HF path with all the path noise, interference,
static, etc. *Afterall, error checking would be required for any
critical messages.

Don't even attempt to BS a fellow BS'er! *8-)

I can believe you're a BS'er!

You repeatedly imply or outright state that this is simple. *Well
publish the software and algorithm. *If you don't have the skills,
find someone who does and get them to do it. *Get it out in the public
so people can give it a field trial. *I'd be more than willing to try
it out.

This is an area where we would be HAPPY to be proved wrong.

The so-called "naysayers" are simply pointing out the issues that must
be considered and overcome to make this happen.
