About G4GUO and PCALE background
Charles is to be commended for his
wonderful
generosity and technical achievement. Through PCALE, he effectively
opened
up ALE to the non-professional radio operator at very low cost. The availability of
PCALE
in various improving versions over many years has made it possible for
more radio operators
to use ALE than ever would have been possible.
We
urge
you to visit the extensive website
of Charles Brain.
Background of early PCALE Development...
PCALE dev, Charles Brain G4GUO, says:
"Some years ago I started on the development of an ALE system for the
P.C. This started as a training exercise in DSP and grew from there. I
have been amazed at the massive amount of interest this software has
generated from all around the world."
"Since writing the above I have now restarted work on this because I am
using it to provide a backup orderwire for my digital voice experiments.
The software has become quite popular in the Utility listening
community. I am gradually adding new radios but this has to take second
place to my more commercial work."
"I have recently entirely re-written all the signal processing modules and those of you used
to previous versions of the software hopefully will find from version G
onwards a significant improvement in performance. The software is now
totally free of any Intel DSP code."
"Warning, I will not accept responsibility for any damage to your
equipment through use of this software. When using this software use an
Automatic Antenna Tuner and run the transmitter well below rated output.
It is advisable to go through a tune sequence on
each of the operating frequencies before handing control of your radio to the computer.
You have been warned."
