  Hellschreiber - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Hellschreiber or Feldhellschreiber was a facsimile-based teleprinter invented by Rudolf Hell.
A fl pixel is transmitted as a signal, and a white pixel is transmitted as silence.
Hellschreiber has also spawned a number of variants over the years, many of them due to radio amateur efforts in the 1990s.

The top section of the interface consists of the Hellschreiber control panel, the middle section is the receiver section, the next section down is the transmitter section with macro buttons below it, and the usual QSO Info strip at the bottom most.
Hellschreiber characters are typically sent as a 5x5 dot matrix inside a 7x7 matrix.
Since Hellschreiber does not send a synchronization bit in the data stream, the bits of the received character can be out of phase with the bits of the transmitted character.

It has been suggested that this article or section be merged into Hellschreiber.
Hellschriber is a data transmission mode that is truly international and independent of character sets: any thing that can be depicted as markings within a 7 pixels high grid (49 pixels), can be transmitted over the air.
In the same year Hell invented an apparatus called the Hellschreiber, an early forerunner to the fax.

 Hellschreiber
Hellschreiber was the first successful direct printing text transmission system, and was very popular at a time when teleprinters were complex and expensive (the Hell receiving mechanism had only two moving parts).
At first the Hellschreiber was mostly used for land-line press services, which continued well into the 1980s.
During WWII, Hellschreiber was widely used for field portable military communications, for which it proved to be very suitable because the equipment was simple and robust.

Hellschreiber was the one of the earliest technologies for sending information over radio, predated only by Morse Code.
Yet, today modified Hellschreiber is considered one of the most effective modes for sending text in weak signal conditions, with Morse itself still the recognized leader.
Hellschreiber does not have the popularity of PSK or MFSK, so it can be a bit more difficult to find someone to have a QSO.

 HELLoIP - CWirc Hellschreiber extension
Hellschreiber (and FeldHell, the variant implemented by gMFSK), is a radio and landline digital mode transmission invented in 1929.
Note: it is normal in Hellschreiber mode to see the received text slant up or down a little, since the transmission format has no provision for sender/receiver synchronization.
When gMFSK sends Hellshreiber with CWirc, depending on the Hellschreiber font you selected, the amount of traffic that's sent to the IRC server is the equivalent of regular Morse at 100 to 150 WPM.

 Hellschreiber, a rediscovery
The Hellschreiber is a teleprinting machine on a principie entirely different from that of the RTTY teleprinter.
In contrast to the RTTY machine, in which received pulses determine the character to be printed, the Hellschreiber uses the transmitted pulses to directly write images of characters on paper tape.
When all other means of communications failed, often the Hellschreiber managed to get the message through, even when only barbed wire and an earth connection were available as a signal path.

In some ways, Hellschreiber may be thought of as a forerunner to modern-day facsimile machines, since it writes an image to paper.
Stan talked about the free Hellschreiber software available on the ’net and then went on to describe how it could be used on the "data only" channels 22 and 23 of the Australian UHF CB radio system, along with a suitable computer and sound card.
Stan supplied a photograph of a Hellschreiber transceiver (published on page 42 of that issue), which he had obtained from an obscure site on the ’net (good old Google!) and could not determine who, if anyone, claimed to own the copyright.

Participants exchange "honest reports, locator and name." To keep track, QSOs count one point (work stations once per band), with an extra point for Duplo-Hell or PSK-Hell QSOs, for working from or to a mechanical Hell machine, or for working a portable station (ie, operating from "emergency" power).
