12
13 wav-file-in is a WAV format audio file.
14
16 atest is a test application which decodes AX.25 frames from an audio
17 recording. This provides an easy way to test Dire Wolf decoding per‐
18 formance much quicker than normal real-time.

24 -B n Bits / second for data. Proper modem selected for 300, 1200,
25 9600. 300 baud uses 1600/1800 Hz AFSK. 1200 (default) baud
26 uses 1200/2200 Hz AFSK. 9600 baud uses K9NG/G2RUH standard.
27
28
29 -D n Divide audio sample rate by n.
30
31
32 -F n Amount of effort to try fixing frames with an invalid CRC. 0
33 (default) = consider only correct frames. 1 = Try to fix only a
34 single bit. more = Try modifying more bits to get a good CRC.
35
36
37 -P m Select the demodulator type such as A, B, C, D (default for 300
38 baud), E (default for 1200 baud), F, A+, B+, C+, D+, E+, F+.

50 gen_packets -B 9600 -o test9.wav
51 atest -B 9600 test9.wav
52
53 This generates and decodes 3 test files with 1200, 300, and 9600
54 bits per second.

61 Try different combinations of options to find the best decoding
62 performance.
