We have not narrowed that down yet. We are Using Tait T2xxx radios. One 
of the things we need to try is both the wide and narrow setting. We 
have not et even confirmed that 3.88 is optimal.

>> It's very early in the process and I think that unless you like to try to hit at least 3 moving targets, I suggest people wait. The MMDVM is a  Arduino  Due and a small analog board. The modem firmware runs on the Due. The analog board does some filtering and level control. We are running a early prototype board from Jim KI6ZUM. Jim has some new boards in the works, so right now waiting or build your own is the only choice.

The test software ONLY works in duplex mode, which is a problem because if your transmit data is not right, you will not get too far with receive. Kind of a catch 22. Jonathan G4KLX says that the deviation should be 3.88 KHz. So on my IFR 1200S that works out to a hair under 4KHz. (analog meter). Now that we have the transmit working OK, not great but OK, we will start on receiver.
