      been set to private for some maintenance. Should be back in a few

              <p>It's an almost complete implementation of the PHY layer
                and can be used to transmit Transport Streams. It does
                not implement the ROUTE/DASH higher layers.</p>
              <p>Here's a demo clip where I back off the power to find
                the minimum required SNR (2 to 3 dB for 9/15 QPSK).<br>

              <p>There was an open source receiver repository (libatsc3)
                for the upper layers, but it's been deleted. I just
                e-mailed the author to find out what's going on.<br>
              </p>
              <p>Despite getting some press for my transmitter in TV
                Technology and IEEE Broadcast Technology Magazine, I've
                never received any feedback.</p>

              <p>The ATSC 3.0 roll out is in a bit of turmoil right now
                due to broadcasters applying encryption/DRM to their
                channels. The most popular STB style receivers are not
                capable of decryption and consumers are being
                disenfranchised. A couple thousand complaints have been
                filed with the FCC.</p>

              <p>Since there's no reduced bandwidth option for ATSC 3.0,
                it's not very ham friendly. Folks are reluctant to fire
                up full 6 MHz wide signals, especially on 70 cm.<br>
