Am sure if you give us details as to the software you are using and what modes are of interest (hopefully they coincide!), there are many hear that would be glad to help you.

Hi Andy. Regarding the TOL.. that was my problem, I think, but I didn't realize it until much later after you tried calling me back. My TOL was cranked down to 50 and Freeze was on, and only after checking everything and re-rereading the Bozo's guide did I realize this probably wasn't what I wanted. By the time I had it all sorted out, it was late, so I shut down. I will probably be lurking on the frequency again tonight after 2300.

Isnt this the reason for the group?

Re: [digitalradio] Digital modes duty cycle and the ft-897
Hello James, All you have to do is look up the power ratings for RTTY. Sub the words Digital Modes for the word RTTY. With PSK adjust audio level just below the point ALC starts indicating on meter. This will give you anywhere from 30 to 45 watts out. As far as Duty Cycle of a QSO is usually around 50 percent, unless you are long winded and the other station is short winded. 73 Gary WB6BNE - Original Message - From: James Wilson To: digitalradio@yahoogroups.com Sent: Tuesday, April 10, 2007 8:21 AM Subject: [digitalradio] Digital modes duty cycle and the ft-897 For field day I will be responsible for digitial communications.

[digitalradio] Power levels JT65
All: It's not necessary to run big power with JT65. Loud signals will only make it difficult for the mode to extract the weaker signals out of the noise. It has the capability to decode signals well below the noise floor; much more so than the HF digital modes we're use to. I think it's a good idea to use the same rule-of-thumb for JT65 as you would with any other mode; use enough power necessary to make the contact. Just keep in mind that JT65 can decode signals you can't even hear.

[digitalradio] WSJT issue, recieve waterfall issue.
Tonight I got WSJT working for the first time and I found my first problem. I am using a Signalink USB connected to a ft-897 the waterfall is almost all blue. No static or other signal indications. I switched to 14.070, strong PSK signals showed up excellent on my PSK waterfall but barely showed up in WSJT. I do have the correct interface selected, I proved this by turning up the volume on the signalink and I could see an increase in DB but very little actual data. Any help is appreciated thanks in advance.
