ther are currently two options for more efficient modulation techniques
for
HF-APRS:
ROBUST PACKET MODE (OFDM) and PSK125 (PSKMAIL/PSKSRV)

For Robust PR there is a couple of modems/tncs available from SCS (DSP
Tracker and PTC-IIex)
Robust Packet uses 8 carriers with 50Bd in 500Hz bandwith with FEC and
CRC.
The DSP-TNC can be used as stand alone Tracker , connetcted to a NMEA GPS
at
4800 8N1 serial.
This TNC can receive packets plus/minus 250Hz in Robust PR and +-400Hz
drifted from center frequency!

For PSK125 you need to use a soundcard and Linux on a PC. Test are beeing
done at 10.148 MHZ also in Europe.
There is a PSKMAIL LIVE CD.iso to boot your Windows-PC in Linux and try
PSK125.
