[wsjt-devel] My report about using RC5

[Claude Frantz]

Hi all,

While using the JT65 mode:

When double-click on the callsign of a CQ calling station, its callsign 
and locator are NOT included in DX CAll and DX Grid. I have tried in the 
"Band activity" side and in the "RX Frequency" side.


The red and green cursors, at the top of the waterfall, in the frequency 
scale, are small as usual in JT9 mode.


If I remember well, these problems have already been reported. Please 
accept this report as a confirmation.


I'm using 32 bit Fedora 28. The program has been compiled from source.

Best wishes,
Claude (DJ0OT)

[wsjt-devel] Graphic confusion ;-)

[mail]

Just a single confusing graphic detail that might be corrected: On the two
buttons for moving TX / RX to the same frequency, the arrows turn
illogically (remains from 1.9 and earlier). The arrows should turn opposite
so they point to what you do, i.e. that "Set RX frequency to TX frequency"
points from RX to TX. It took me some time to get used to making things
"wrong" to get the right result. :-)

 

Thank you for continuing the great work! :-)

73, Allan

Hi !

Would be nice if someone who have typed in all dial frequencies (whole 
area of one band, all bands) could export them with "Save as" and share 
the file.
Then it would be easy to make config copy to name "FT8-ru" (or 
something) and import all frequencies to that configuration profile.

It would serve also in future without extra work.

For what reason?    The clone teams are using the 77 bit WSJT-X code, 
and to many people that program window UI is horrible.

Sir Joe and colleagues, my respect,

I had enough for half an hour. It's boring. USA very weak signals 
(100W?), Few stations.
WSJT-X is much better now, but I think there is still a lot of work 
ahead. It would be logical to combine the efforts of the WSJT-X and 
JTDX teams for the common good.

Allan,

I'm not sure what you're saying, are you talking about V5?. The arrow to 
move the RX freq to TX points up (away) from the RX to the TX, and vice 
versa.   How is that confusing?   Most people love that change.

Re: [wsjt-devel] Which FREQS for 1-2 Dec Roundup?

[Neil Zampella]

But that would cause confusion to a lot of people who are new to the 
digital modes seeing multiple frequencies on a single band for 
JT65/JT9/FT8/etc.


Its much easier to have those who do contests (or follow DXPeditions)

1.  Create a new configuration for each contest. (IE:   RTTY Roundup)
2.  Go to the frequency settings
3.  Delete the entire table
4.  Add the frequencies used for that contest as listed in the rules.

Then all you have to do is select the BAND you want, rather than have to 
sort though 2 or 3 frequencies on that band to get the right one. 
Since many of the contests use the same frequencies each year, this only 
has to be done once, and does not affect the frequency list in the other 
configurations you have set up.

People having a different opinion about UI design. Right now, the 
pskreporter.info is telling us, 15% of the total number of users

Re: [wsjt-devel] Graphic confusion ;-)

[Black Michael via wsjt-devel]

What's confusing is how people interpret the button.
It's a data-flow indicator showing the direction of data travel - it's not a 
button which some seem to interpret as pointing to the thing you want to change.
It takes a bit of getting used to if you have the 2nd interpretation but 
eventually your brain will click.

Hi Bill,

this is not within our control. Best we can hope for is that later 
versions of the Qt framework that we use for cross platform GUI code 
have resolved such minor issues. Unfortunately updating the version of 
Qt we build with has other restrictions, particularly the operating 
system versions supported. I am currently surveying the Mac users to see 
if we can drop support for Mavericks 10.9 so that a defect in Qt 5.8 can 
be fixed by switching to Qt 5.9 which has no support for 10.9. Similar 
issues exist for MS Windows where we are stuck with Qt v5.5 until we can 
drop support for Windows XP and Windows Vista, something I would dearly 
like to do but I know there are many users out there with hardware that 
will not support Windows 7 or later.


For some background, the Qt team are close to releasing v5.12 so we are 
currently far behind the curve on defect repairs and new features on a 
key component of WSJT-X.

Vintage Drake 7-Line twins, circa 1980. CAT is not available. It is a system

Re: [wsjt-devel] Which FREQS for 1-2 Dec Roundup? +Bug found

[Saku]

Hi !

For lazy ones, like me, I have made freq export with all frequencies 
listed in Ru rules (with step of 2kHz).
There is also a little README. It follows mainly just what Neil writes 
below.
But you do not need to delete old freq settings, just load new ones 
over. That will ask if old frequencies may be deleted.


It can be loaded from here:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1g3IXbZnpgiN7KZJXWwxv6Z7nqGbIwhNm/view?usp=sharing

Doing that I also found a bug from rc5!
When you "save as" frequency list by just giving some name like "FT8-Ru" 
save dialog DOES NOT ADD file name suffix.
Then, when you load that file and have dialog filter "frequency files" 
nothing is found.
I added manually ".frq" suffix, but either that is not right suffix or 
filter "frequency files" is broken.
So, on load you have to select "all files" to see the frequency file to 
pick up.

[wsjt-devel] Unexpected Behavior - Halt TX

[Robert Rearden]

During last night's roundup, I had unexpected behavior of the HALT TX button.  
On two occasions HALT TX failed to stop the Tx sequence even though the HALT TX 
button was clicked during the first 2 or 3 seconds of the Tx/Rx sequence. AUTO 
SEQ was on at the time. Tx continued to the end of the normal Tx portion of the 
sequence and then halted. I operate on an iMac computer (late 2015) using Mac 
OS 10.14.1.

Neil,

 

Well, that's exactly how I would like to have it, but it's not how it works
here. When moving from A to B - the arrow should point from A to B.  My
arrows are apparently opposite (see attached photo). Set RX frequency to TX
frequency on my version ( rc5 737d2f) is the right hand button - and the
arrow points down (towards the RX frequency). Have I missed something here?

Its doing what it says ... moving the Tx freq (A) in your pic to the Rx 
(B).  So if you clicked on that down arrow, it moves the 2335 DOWN to

And I thought I was the only one sending CQ RU after the test was over the

stations answering my CQ on the standard frequency when the RTTY message
popped up.  I don't feel so bad now.  Not alone in this apparently.  One
realized his mistake and tried again in normal mode to complete the
contract.  The other one just disappeared.

whether it be on unification of technology (i.e. DMR-MARC vs Brandmeister vs 
other Offshoots).

You even try to prompt for unification (as I do) and you get banned from groups 
or opinions shot down viciously.



Email/Blogs/Posts are an appalling way of gauging intent as the human side is 
lost... and is mostly misconstrued in intent ?



Frankly AR is seen in many circles as an arrogant relic of the past ... For AR 
and any of its projects (i.e. FT8) to survive,
?sucking it up? and others ?backing down from high chairs? is necessary. Middle 
ground... Listening... support even if disagreement
but listening is critical (especially with the FT8v2 upgrade).



AR Is for People and About People in a technical, Regulated Environ. HAM = Help 
All Mankind. People first. Not ego. Not past,
resumes, awards or personal gain. Collective and well-communicated gain = the 
answer; collective and internationally inclusive
gain for NOW and for the FUTURE.

Sir Joe and colleagues, my respect,

I had enough for half an hour. It's boring. USA very weak signals
(100W?), Few stations.
WSJT-X is much better now, but I think there is still a lot of work
ahead. It would be logical to combine the efforts of the WSJT-X and JTDX
teams for the common good.

Have a good day, 73. Serge R6YY

Re: [wsjt-devel] RU logging

[Hisashi T Fujinaka]

Bands were dead here, and I had the same issue but I called VP8LP, got
no answer, called & worked someone else, had VP8LP call me, so I
double-clicked on him, and worked him, but the logging broke. I wasn't
able to tell what was wrong (trying desparately to get VP8 in my log)
but it looks like what happened to Jim.

Lucky, I worked him again later.

I only made four contacts and I thank those who were on the other end.

Lots of fun tonight on 7.080. 20 contacts but it seemed like I had to work 
harder than previous tests. Copied K1JT at -24 for a few minutes, so the band 
definitely was not as good.

I was paying attention to the logging more closely based on some previous 
comments and noted something that seems counter-intuitive to me. Here's the 
scenario:

Call a CQing station with TX2
After two or three cycles with no response I terminate TX
Station subsequently responds to me with TX3
I re-enable transmit with TX4 and complete the contact.
I look at the log pop-up and note that it has not copied his report to me.

Not a big deal to enter it manually before I fire the OK button but is there a 
way to fix this? It would be one less thing to have to look out for in the 
mayhem of a contest.

Apologies if this has been already reported. It has been a challenge keeping up 
with the volume of email the past few days, I can't imagine how the developers 
handle it all!

[wsjt-devel] Callsign problem?

[Drew White]

This morning I attempted an FT8 RC5 connection with C4XMAS.  My initial 
transmission was truncated after the 'E' in "EN50".  I then removed EN50 
from TX1.  His transmissions to me also appears to be truncated.

Re: [wsjt-devel] Graphic confusion ;-)

[Frank Kirschner]

Allan,

I think I see the problem. You are misinterpreting the word "to" in the
tool tip. If the tool tip for the arrow from Rx to Tx said, "Copy Rx freq
to Tx," instead of "Set Tx freq to Rx freq," (and conversely for the other
button), would that help?

Or, as has been suggested, just ignore the tool tip and look at the arrow
direction.

Hope that helps.

Re: [wsjt-devel] "FT8 Roundup" mock contest

[Frank Kirschner]

Having written database software for mostly non-technical users, I
completely agree. Users love progress, but they hate change. In order to
get enthusiastic adoption of new releases, I had to show it would be
easier, faster, or more powerful for the users.

Hams, on the other hand, are technically-oriented, and I'm a bit surprised
at the reluctance to move forward. I love new releases and exploring the
new capabilities. But that's an engineer talking.

Urp .. re-read your post,  RC5 but it wouldn't truncate anything. If

Again, a full screen cap of the entire window would help.

Hi Drew,

thanks for the issue report, we are aware of this anomaly. It looks like 
C4XMAS is not being correctly detected as a valid non-standard callsign 
and is causing correctly generated messages to be encoded as free text 
with the usual 13-character limit.

Hi Allan,

this is an endian issue 
(https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gulliver%27s_Travels#Part_I:_A_Voyage_to_Lilliput). 
There is no correct resolution that satisfies everyone. You'll just have 
to learn the convention and put up with it.

Bill, You really should change the tooltips though. "Set Tx frequency to Rx
Frequency" makes it sound like the direction is from Tx to Rx, and then the
arrows seem to point the "wrong" direction.

"Copy Tx frequency to Rx frequency" or "Push Tx frequency to Rx frequency"
would be less confusing.

Paul,

take the sentence "Set Tx frequency to Rx Frequency", I read the word 
"Set" to mean change or adjust as per definition 12(a) here: 
https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/set .


I find it hard to interpret the sentence as the opposite. If anything 
the arrow direction has potential for different interpretations 
depending on the assumed context, i.e. is it the frequency that is being 
moved or is it something else that has the opposite sense.


As I said, it is an endian type issue. At risk of causing a religious 
war based on pettiness, I crack my boiled eggs at the thin end but I 
don't insist that you should.

Hi OM,

On the menu "File->Reset Cabrillo Log ...". Don't forget to export the
Cabrillo log entry file before doing that if you intend to submit an entry,
otherwise you be spending a long time piecing together an entry manually
from your ADIF log and ALL.TXT file.

Another option is to use N1MM Logger+ by switching on the option to send
logged QSOs to it directly during the contest.

[wsjt-devel] Disable New Grid Colors before test

[Dave Q]

Are you saying to clear the log, export it as a blank log. Then when the 
contest is over export to the already created blank log.  Or just saying make 
sure to clear the log so if there were already entries those would have to be 
edited out of the contest submission. 

Sorry to be dense but this will be my first attempt to submit a contest log. 
But don’t want to waste the time of people who know what they’re doing and may 
be counting on their contact with me.  Doubtful but you never know.

[wsjt-devel] Any way to get dupe checking in contest mode?

[Keith Maton via wsjt-devel]

Running on 80m now but picking out stations I haven’t worked - With only 20 Qs 
in the log it’s fairly easy to see who I’ve worked before but is there any way 
to get dupe checking somehow?

I’m using a Mac so linking to something like N1MM isn’t possible.

Re: [wsjt-devel] what is rtty mode?

[WB5JJJ]

These stations with 5xx numbers should NOT be operating on the standard FT8
frequencies.  They are operating as RTTY Round Up, but that starts on
14.130 and up to 14.150 and similar on other bands.

[wsjt-devel] not decoding ru

[David Pickard]

  
  
I have v2-rc5 installed. Worked several stations yesterday on
  FT8. I am currently on 14.130 and hear lots of FT8 signals and see
  them on the waterfall but am showing very few decodes. I moved up
  2khz and  heard lots of signals but no decodes.

[wsjt-devel] New stations on RU today

[WB5JJJ]

A multitude of ANTO's (stateside) on 14.130 for the Round Up.  Looks like a
lot of guys have made the jump to RC5 at least for this test contest.  WF
looks better than 14.074 since everybody is v2 here today.

[wsjt-devel] RC5 - Possible Bug

[Edfel Rivera]

Hi All:

First I am very positive with WSJTX v2 RC5.  Have worked DX many US states,
Poland, Slovenia, and more. One thing I have noticed when PPT is active
open windows get input and not respond to OS as should.  OS Windows 10.
Not sure if others have observed this behavior.

Very pleased with Contest logging feature.  Keep up the excellent work!!

Hi David and all

 

Same problem here. I’m on 7090 (40m as it is nearly 9 p.m. here) having plenty 
of signals in the waterfall display, but very few decodes. Changing back to 
V1.9.1 no decode at all (as expected). Changing to 7074 getting dozens of 
decodes per time slot. Clocks are accurate.

 

Tried this on two different Laptop Computers with Win7 and Win10 and of course 
with V2-rc5. Both the same result. I even cannot decode my own signal from one 
computer to the other one, however no problem to decode my own signal with 
V1.9.1.

Hi Edfel,

the upper box is for entering your ARRL Field Day exchange, it is not 
relevant to ARRL RTTY Roundup mode. DX in the lower box is correct for 
you and other stations not in the 48 contiguous U.S. states, DC, and the

Hi Edfel,

those fields should be being populated automatically. Are you using the

I do like how, for example -10 converts automatically to 549 in the contest 
mode. Finally, a contest that's not an automatic 599.

I tried a full reset of everything. Now it doesn't turn the program off but
the report fields are still left blank. TAB only moves the cursor. Reset
the time with Dimension 4 just because.
Still get "can't log" error message but when the data is put in all is ok.
For some unknown reason my N3FJP Software is not getting the info.  Rig is
Flexradio 6300, WSJTX is hooked up to it as a TS2000 and all seems to be
working there. The Logging program has the Flex API running on COM5 (Slice
A) and it appears to work but for some reason the two programs are not
talking to each other.
Very agrevating when you consider it was working, YESTERDAY and logging
into ACLog just fine.

Re: [wsjt-devel] Graphic confusion ;-)

[Gary Hinson]

This zombie topic has been around since the early days of FT8.   According to 
some, the arrows point the correct way, according to others they point 
backwards.  Like the arrows, there are arguments both ways.  Clearly, it’s an 
individual thing.  

Would it not be possible (at some future point – not urgently) to make the 
arrow direction a user config option?

What's confusing is how people interpret the button.

 

It's a data-flow indicator showing the direction of data travel - it's not a 
button which some seem to interpret as pointing to the thing you want to change.

 

It takes a bit of getting used to if you have the 2nd interpretation but 
eventually your brain will click.

Just a single confusing graphic detail that might be corrected: On the two 
buttons for moving TX / RX to the same frequency, the arrows turn illogically 
(remains from 1.9 and earlier). The arrows should turn opposite so they point 
to what you do, i.e. that "Set RX frequency to TX frequency" points from RX to 
TX. It took me some time to get used to making things "wrong" to get the right 
result. :-)

FYI - I am also having N3FJP logging issues at same time. It is"ARRL RTTY"

still issue. WSJT-X is sending all data over, less "St/Pr/#" field (I'm
manually inputting this)

and WSJT-X returning error:

It is listing correctly in WSJT-X Contest Log window...

Re: [wsjt-devel] Any way to get dupe checking in contest mode?

[Grant VK5GR]

Keith,

I have been trying to figure out how to get dupe alerts etc too. 

N1MM doesn’t do it - because the station is not loaded into the main entry 
window of N1MM and only appears at the end of the QSO directly into the log via 
UDP - after the damage has been done so to speak.

WSJT has no dupe checking of it's own either that I can see.

What are others doing to avoid dupes? Is there something I have missed in the 
config of either N1MM or WSJT here?

Running on 80m now but picking out stations I haven’t worked - With only 20 Qs

to get dupe checking somehow?

I’m using a Mac so linking to something like N1MM isn’t possible.

FWIW, Bill, it’s not particularly obvious that there is a horizontal 
association between the Field Day / RTTY Roundup options and the “Exch” fields. 
 They are pretty far apart horizontally from the options they are associated 
with.  Lots of mistakes will be made in this configuration.

Hi Edfel,

the upper box is for entering your ARRL Field Day exchange, it is not
relevant to ARRL RTTY Roundup mode. DX in the lower box is correct for
you and other stations not in the 48 contiguous U.S. states, DC, and the

Hi Grant,

currently WSJT-X can only help you with detecting dupes when they call 
CQ . To get this working you must move aside your wsjtx_log.adi file 
(you will want to put it back after the contest). Then in 
"Settings->Colors->Decode Highlighting" enable just the "New call on 
band", "My Call in message", "New DXCC on band", "CQ in message", and 
"Transmitted message" colours. "LotW User" is optional. Check the 
"Settings->General->Show DXCC, grid, and worked-before status" option.


Then work anyone who decodes with a colour highlight other than the 
green CQ colour.

Hi Dave,

you cannot turn on RTTY RU mode or FD mode without entering a valid 
exchange and if there is an invalid exchange you are thrown back to that 
field with a helpful message box.

My guess with N3FJP RTTY Log is that everything is looking for AC Log and
not that log. Sounds like maybe a fix needed in JT Assist..

Re: [wsjt-devel] Any way to get dupe checking in contest mode?

[Grant VK5GR]

Bill,

Thanks for that explanation. I realise its fairly early days and ok on the 
current limited capabilities in this space.

To make contest mode more viable IMHO it would need to provide dupe feedback on 
any callsign I selected at the time of selection for calling (in search and 
pounce) or as I clicked to answer someone (at which point it should not start 
the answer sequence without some sort of secondary input from the user). 

It might also be important to be able to block callsigns from auto answer in 
run mode (CQ mode) where you give up on a QSO but they keep trying but not 
acknowledging you or simply keep calling without ever progressing. Even if it 
is only a temporary "sin bin" of perhaps 15 minutes. 

I realise these now aren't bug reports but feature requests for a later 
version. However, I feel that some of these fundamentals will be important for 
this to be considered by serious contesters.

Regards,
Grant VK5GR

Hi Grant,

currently WSJT-X can only help you with detecting dupes when they call 
CQ . To get this working you must move aside your wsjtx_log.adi file 
(you will want to put it back after the contest). Then in 
"Settings->Colors->Decode Highlighting" enable just the "New call on 
band", "My Call in message", "New DXCC on band", "CQ in message", and 
"Transmitted message" colours. "LotW User" is optional. Check the 
"Settings->General->Show DXCC, grid, and worked-before status" option.

Then work anyone who decodes with a colour highlight other than the 
green CQ colour.

I had the same happen with a contact with WL7CG. Nothing I did would make it

Sorry, yes TAB1 populates  Rcp Sent and Exc Sent but program refuses to log

[wsjt-devel] Access Configuration Changes Frequency

[Edfel Rivera]

Hi:

If I access configuration (was at 7.080.00, when exit configuration,
program sets frequency to 7.078.00.  Just pointing if this is the intended
behavior.  IMO when exit configuration screen, frequency should not
change.

Thanks.

Hi Edfel,

agreed that is desirable but implementing it is difficult as exiting the 
configuration may have changed the available frequencies. It is on my 
list to try and fix.

Re: [wsjt-devel] Refused to save to ContestLog

[Jim Shorney]

I wonder if it does not like that you have your name in the OPERATOR field 
instead of your callsign. AFAIK the ADIF field that this maps to is for 
operator call, which CAN be different from the station call under certain 
circumstances.

Re: [wsjt-devel] not decoding ru

Andy,

the starting freq for 40m was 7.080 .. it was very busy here in PA.

Hi David and all

Same problem here. I’m on 7090 (40m as it is nearly 9 p.m. here) 
having plenty of signals in the waterfall display, but very few 
decodes. Changing back to V1.9.1 no decode at all (as expected). 
Changing to 7074 getting dozens of decodes per time slot. Clocks are 
accurate.


Tried this on two different Laptop Computers with Win7 and Win10 and 
of course with V2-rc5. Both the same result. I even cannot decode my 
own signal from one computer to the other one, however no problem to 
decode my own signal with V1.9.1.

I have v2-rc5 installed. Worked several stations yesterday on FT8. I 
am currently on 14.130 and hear lots of FT8 signals and see them on 
the waterfall but am showing very few decodes. I moved up 2khz and  
heard lots of signals but no decodes.

Not big deal or a must.  Probably when working with standard frequencies
the 'anomaly' is negligible.

Hi Jim:

See the another popup window 'Invalid QSO' below, at capture you are
refering, I tried placing my name in Operator to see if having that field
blank was the problem.  There are also others with similar problem:

[wsjt-devel] TX not moving on double-clcik

[Jim Shorney]

I have noticed a specific scenario that has happened several times during the 
contest. This happens when I have called a CQing station two or three times 
with no reply and I bail and go call another. Then I see the first station 
replying to me with TX3 while I am calling the new one. So I bail on that call 
and try to go back to work the first station with a double-click on the 
message. This moves the RX back to the first station's frequency, but not the 
TX. It is acting like Hold TX is on, but it is not. I tried toggling Hold TX. 
and shift-doubleclick, but the TX refuses to move until I use one those 
"confusing" arrows. (j/k, I'm not confused  - much).

Maybe I'm just a bad op. I know we are supposed to offset our signals and call 
split, but that doesn't seem to be happening. At any rate, it seems like the TX 
should move in this scenario, otherwise I end up QRMing the second op until I 
remember where I am.

While I am at it, it would be nice if, when calling running station, Tx4 could 
me made sticky until the final 73 is received. Leave TX disable alone, just let 
Tx4 stay selected in case it needs to be re-sent. One less thing to have to 
scramble for when things don't go as planned.

Anyway, 70 contacts so far before I needed to take a break.
