So, you have files you need to manage on servers. Maybe you're a developer. Maybe you're a system administrator. Maybe you're a contractor or freelancer. But you need to connect to a thing, and upload, download, or tweak the files on that thing.

That's what Transmit is for.

Transmit's big strength is its clean interface — our famous 'dual-pane' view is way faster than the Finder. But Transmit also has tons of very nice features like File Sync, which can mirror remote and local (or, now, local and local!) files in one click.

Transmit also takes great care to let you organize your Servers for fast access. And with Panic Sync, you can sync them to all of your computers. Never type a server address again.

Now, long ago we'd call Transmit an 'FTP client', but today, with Transmit 5, we connect to lots of different server types and cloud services. For example, Amazon S3 dramatically changed the way files are served on the internet, and Transmit is a great way to manage your Amazon S3 buckets.

Put simply: Transmit lets you quickly and easily manage files on the internet.

(Redirected from Five by five)

A signal strength and readability report is a standardized format for reporting the strength of the radio signal and the readability (quality) of the radiotelephone (voice) or radiotelegraph (Morse code) signal transmitted by another station as received at the reporting station's location and by their radio station equipment. These report formats are usually designed for only one communications mode or the other, although a few are used for both telegraph and voice communications. All but one of these signal report formats involve the transmission of numbers.

History[edit]

As the earliest radio communication used Morse code, all radio signal reporting formats until about the 1920s were for radiotelegraph, and the early voice radio signal report formats were based on the telegraph report formats.[citation needed]

Timeline of signal report formats[edit]

  • The first signal report format code may have been QJS.[citation needed]
  • The U.S. Navy used R and K signals starting in 1929.[citation needed]
  • The QSK code was one of the twelve Q Codes listed in the 1912 International Radiotelegraph Convention Regulations, but may have been in use earlier.[citation needed]
  • The QSA code was included in the Madrid Convention (Appendix 10, General Regulations) sometime prior to 1936.[citation needed]
  • The Amateur radio R-S-T system signal report format currently in use was first developed in 1934.[citation needed]
  • As early as 1943, the U.S and UK military published the first guidance that included the modern 'Weak but readable', 'Strong but distorted', and 'Loud and clear' phrases.[citation needed]
  • By 1951, the CCEB had published ACP 125(A) (a.k.a. SGM-1O82-51), which formalized the 1943 'Loud and clear' format.[citation needed]

Radiotelegraph report formats[edit]

Q-Code signal report formats[edit]

The QSA code and QRK code are interrelated and complementary signal reporting codes for use in wireless telegraphy (Morse code). They replaced the earlier QSJ code.

The currently the QSA and QRK codes are officially defined in the ITU Radio Regulations 1990, Appendix 13: Miscellaneous Abbreviations and Signals to Be Used in Radiotelegraphy Communications Except in the Maritime Mobile Service.

R-S-T system[edit]

Amateur radio users in the U.S. Together 3 3 8 4. and Canada have used the R-S-T system since 1934. This system was developed by amateur radio operator Arthur W. Braaten, W2BSR.[2][3][4][5] It reports the readability on a scale of 1 to 5, the signal strength on a scale of 1 to 9, and the tone of the Morse code continuous wave signal on a scale of 1 to 9.[6][7] During amateur radio contests, where the rate of new contacts is paramount, contest participants often give a perfect signal report of 599 even when the signal is lower quality, because always providing the same signal format enables them to send Morse code with less thought and thus increased speed.[citation needed]

SINPO code[edit]

SINPO is an acronym for Signal, Interference, Noise, Propagation, and Overall, which was developed by the CCIR in 1951 (as C.C.I.R. Recommendation No. 251) for use in radiotelegraphy, and the standard is contained in Recommendation ITU-R Sm.1135, SINPO and SINPFEMO codes.[8] This format is most notably used by the BBC for receiving signal reports on postcards mailed from listeners, even though that same standard specifies that the SINPFEMO code should be used for radiotelephony transmissions. SINPO is the official radiotelegraph signal reporting codes for international civil aviation [9] and ITU-R.[10]

Radiotelephony report formats[edit]

R-S-T system[edit]

Amateur radio operators use the R-S-T system to describe voice transmissions, dropping the last digit (Tone report) because there is no continuous wave tone to report on.

Plain-language radio checks[edit]

The move to plain-language radio communications means that number-based formats are now considered obsolete, and are replaced by plain language radio checks. These avoid the ambiguity of which number stands for which type of report and whether a 1 is considered good or bad. This format originated with the U.S. military in World War II, and is currently defined by ACP 125 (G).,[11] published by the Combined Communications Electronics Board.[citation needed]

The prowords listed below are for use when initiating and answering queries concerning signal strength and readability.[citation needed]

Use in analog vs. digital radio transmission modes[edit]

In analog radio systems, as receiving stations move away from a radio transmitting site, the signal strength decreases gradually, causing the relative noise level to increase. The signal becomes increasingly difficult to understand until it can no longer be heard as anything other than static.[12]:38

These reporting systems are usable for, but perhaps not completely appropriate for, rating digital signal quality.[citation needed] This is because digital signals have fairly consistent quality as the receiver moves away from the transmitter until reaching a threshold distance. At this threshold point, sometimes called the 'digital cliff,'the signal quality takes a severe drop and is lost'.[12]:38 This difference in reception reduces attempts to ascertain subjective signal quality to simply asking, 'Can you hear me now?' or similar. The only possible response is 'yes'; otherwise, there is just dead air. This sudden signal drop was also one of the primary arguments of analog proponents against moving to digital systems. However, the 'five bars' displayed on many cell phones does directly correlate to the signal strength rating.[citation needed]

Slang report formats[edit]

Transmit 5 6 3 X 5 1

A report format commonly referred to as five by five.[citation needed] The report format ostensibly consists of two digits, each ranging from 1 to 5, resulting in 25 possible combinations, with five by five being the best signal possible out of 25 combinations.[citation needed] As no reliable source has been found documenting this format, it may simply be Cold War-era slang, inappropriately mapping the radiotelegraph signal report numbers to radio-telephony signals.[citation needed]

5/6 / 3 As A Fraction

Some radio users have inappropriately started using the Circuit Merit telephone line quality measurement.[citation needed] This format is unsuitable for radiotelegraph or radio-telephony use because it focuses on voice-to-noise ratios, for judging whether a particular telephone line is suitable for commercial (paying customer) use, and does not include separate reports for signal strength and voice quality.[citation needed]
