Depends on which version of WSJT-X being used. For V1.9.1 the 77 bit
message does not apply. For V2.0.0 RC3 it does apply.

Same intermittent problem here. I finally found that the ‘Decode only 77 bit
messages’ box seems to be checked by default when you go to fox/hound mode in
WSJT-X V 2.0.0 RC3 … when it is ‘unchecked’ VP6D’s transmissions will suddenly
be decoded …. BUT that unchecked box cannot be saved … the next time you launch
and go in fox hound mode the box seems to be checked again by default …. So
when decoding of VP6D transmissions seems to stop … go to advanced settings and
uncheck that box and the messages will reappear … it is obviously a bug that
needs to be fixed in the software …. And apparently something different that
VP6D seems to be doing with its transmitted messages ???

I worked them. Like you, I heard many “hounds” and no VP6 for quite a while.
Then suddenly, there they were, responding. I think it’s propagation. Keep
calling.

I'm not able to decode any transmissions from VP6D but can decode
transmissions of those calling VP6D.
I have limited experience with FT8 but have been successful before. Current
version: 1.9.1. Getting red/yellow blobs (love that term) where hounds are
calling. Have read/re-read Don's job aid, Cady's book, and the several
WSJT-X resources. Hound mode is checked. Green bar between 30-38. Rx All
Freqs checked.
So, is it simply propagation between my QTH (Atlanta) and VP6D? Is it my
modest antenna? Or is there a setting somewhere that I've missed?
Listening and looking at the on 17m at the time of this message. Many are
calling but I have yet to see a message confirming a QSO.
Any suggestions greatly appreciated!
