Modembin – A pastebin that encodes your text into real FSK modem audio

About

A fun weekend project: https://www.modembin.comIt's a pastebin, except text/files are encoded into .wav files using real FSK modem audio. Image sharing is supported via Slow-Scan Television (SSTV), a method of transmitting images as FM audio originally used by ham radio operators.Everything runs in the browser with zero audio libraries and the encoding is vanilla TypeScript sine wave math: phase-continuous FSK with proper 8-N-1 framing, fractional bit accumulation for non-integer sample rates, and a quadrature FM discriminator on the decode side (no FFT windowing or Goertzel), The only dependency is lz-string for URL sharing compression.It supports Bell 103 (300 baud), Bell 202 (1200 baud), V.21, RTTY/Baudot, Caller ID (Bellcore MDMF), DTMF, Blue Box MF tones, and SSTV image encoding. There's also a chat mode where messages are transmitted as actual Bell 103 audio over WebSocket... or use the acoustic mode for speaker-to-mic coupling for in-room local chat.
