subroutine genmsk144(msg0,ichk,msgsent,i4tone,itype,pchk_file)

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Experimental small blocklength ldpc version
! s8 + 48bits + s8 + 80 bits = 144 bits (72ms message duration)
!
! Encode a JTMSK message
! Input:
!   - msg0     requested message to be transmitted
!   - ichk     if ichk=1, return only msgsent
!              if ichk.ge.10000, set imsg=ichk-10000 for short msg
!   - msgsent  message as it will be decoded
!   - i4tone   array of audio tone values, 0 or 1
!   - itype    message type 
!                 1 = standard message  "Call_1 Call_2 Grid/Rpt"
!                 2 = type 1 prefix
!                 3 = type 1 suffix

!                 5 = type 2 suffix
!                 6 = free text (up to 13 characters)
!                 7 = short message     "<Call_1 Call2> Rpt"
