Hi Trevor
You appear to have a good handle on the direction HF digital voice is going for Ham radio. HF radio is more stable than the satellite realm so hopefully any digital voice system that can handle the satellite environment will evolve. I would almost suggest that any HF digital voice system that can handle the 20 meter pileup would handle the satellite HEO . Handling a LEO 10 gHz environment might stretch it a bit.
Thanks again

From: "joseph Murray" k0vty@juno.com I continue to ask one question about digital voice on HF. When will Hams see a digital voice system that will be able to Handle a 20 meter pile up. So far , the answers have been negative.
Quite right Joe, it's why I don't think any of the existing Digital Voice systems will be the one that hams use in 10 years time. The processing power of DSP's continues to increase each year and I'm sure we'll eventually see a viable narrow band Amateur Digital Voice Mode.
