Re: [digitalradio] JT65 Flatten Spectrum Option

Andy, I dunno about that.  It all depends on whether or not your flattened
spectra lasted for more than four hours!

Yes, I noticed my spectra was flattened .  I was hoping it would not cause 
my wife to leave me and...oh wait, wrong subject.

Seriously, I did some Spectra testing last night and found turning it off 
solved the problem.  Then this morning I received a message Unable to 
allocate a bivariate polynomial for factorization.  That sounds more 
painful that a flattened spectra.

  Andy:

As you noted last night, the Flatten Spectrum
option in SpecJT tends to cause the waterfall to
go black when receiving strong signals. Reducing
the RX audio will make it worse; increasing the
audio seems to solve the problem. The SpecJT gain
should give the same effect. See attached.

The FS option flattens (evens out) the audio
passband frequencies and it seems to act as an
audio-in AGC allowing stronger RX noise levels
without masking weaker signals.

I've been using WSJT for many years, but this is
all new to me since I've only used the mode on VHF
meteor scatter and the occasionaly EME contact
where signals are a lot weaker than what we see on
HF.

Hope this helps..
