[wsjt-devel] wsjt FH vs. clone's
Hi there, Please forgive me if you find this irrelevant. I can't resist: Why it matters (at least for me): A DX-pedition is tx-ing and I "need" this country for my DXCC (or whatever). He runs F/H with WSJT-X. I get through within 3 to 4 calls. Happy bunny, I log the QSO. He runs a clone. I never get through! What to watch: I have got a report from ZL7IO within 10 min calling from EU. believe me: ZL7 from EU is NOT easy. I could not get a report from 5B4AMX (a neighborough of sort) using a clone althought I called many times! Please DX-peditionners, ALWAYS USE F/H, it is far far more efficient than anything else!

[wsjt-devel] UDP message type 4 on RR73 message
Howdy ? Long time no email ;-) The doc says UDP type 4 is as if I double clicked into the Band Activity window. It is correct when the message is a CQ or a QRZ as highlighted into NetworkMessage.hpp file. When I double click on a message "foo fuu RR73" in the Band Activity window, WSJT-X put the line into the RX Frequency window, prepare the message with fuu and send the appropriate CAT commands to call fuu. Allright. But when I send a UDP type 4 message for this very same "foo fuu RR73", WSJT-X put the line into the RX Frequency window, prepare the message with fuu and DO NOT send CAT commands so I don't call fuu. Too bad! It looks like a failure or a refusal to act (please Freud: forgive me...) Or I miss something somewhere.

[wsjt-devel] Highlighting calls in WSJT-X
Hello. Thanks to Saku, OH1KH, I am able to add colours to the Band Activity window of WSJT-X. The colours change with criteria such as new DXCC, per band or all time, etc. It works perfectly well. Thanks a lot for that. Now, I use also the line highlighting from settings->Colors. Because I modify the bg colour when highlighting calls through UDP messages, the line is frequently painted with different bg colours, and that is neither nice to see nor useful... but it is eyes catching! My question: is there a way to set the line bg colours by the UDP type 13 message? Also, it seems to me that calls highlighted remain highlighted on band change. This fails the objective of DXCC per band signalisation. My question: is there an option/checkbox somewhere that would reset all the colours set to default values when changing band or mode? Thank you for your answers. Keep up the good work!

Hi there, I successfully built wsjt-x on Debian Stretch yesterday. The existing INSTALL file is not up-to-date. You guys might be interested by the steps I had to go through in order to build wsjt-x. Starting from a fresh Stretch install (Debian 9.4): (apt-get update + upgrade + dist-upgrade Stretch) I could not find build-essentials in the repo (I seem to remember that name but that was a very long time ago), so I had to: apt-get install gcc g++ fortran cmake (lowercase; CMake does not exist) texinfo libtool automake (autoreconf is not a package) apt-get install git subversion (svn is not a package) asciidoc asciidocto pkg-config apt-get install qt5.7 qt5libmultimedia-dev qt5widgets qt5base5-dev qtmultimedia5-dev libqtseriqlport5 lib5qt5serialport5-dev apt-get libudev-dev libusb-1.0-0-dev fftw3-3-dev libfftw3-dev default versions of gcc/g++ is gcc6. When you local repo is updated, then (as detailed in the INSTALL) get source: wget —no-ckeck-certificates https://physics/wsjtx-1.9.0-rc4.tgz and untar in your build: cmake —build install cmake —build —target install et hop ! done (it took a night to a "VIA Epia" cell with 1Gb mem and 500Gb disk to complete) There is a big load of warnings when compiling the fortran source files but I saw something about that on the reflector some days ago.

Re: [wsjt-devel] Second Public Test of FT8 DXpedition Mode: April 7, 1400-1600 UTC
Hi there I found the use of the "Ping Jockey Relief" chat page was a very good idea, and useful and working well! I was able to hear steadily the first fox W1/KH7Z. Gave him a series of call from 1402 Z (since the fox was late... never saw this case in real life - I share my sofa with 2 Spanish greyhounds - galgos - and the rabbits always hope the hounds will be late) till 1410 Z to no avail. I had put my TX above 3500Hz; nobody was TXing up there. Then from 1410 till 1430 I tries to move my freq between 2500Hz and 4000Hz. That led me to nowhere. Then the bugs hit the fox and he gave up. Too bad, for I never heard his Stand-in partner. As for the W7/KH7Z fox, I never ever heard him calling. I guess the propag was not top level and my low range station (Flex 5000A running abt 90W max into a vertical R7) was not efficient enough to get my signal cross half our world. But I stayed listening. I find that I heard a lot of people calling and sending reports, however I find that the number of RR73 were not as numerous as they should have been. I was surprised to "see" in the waterfall the fox's sigs (up to 'yellowish' dots) whilst there were no decode at all. All in all a very frustrating experience, I hope it'll be for the good!

Re: [wsjt-devel] Premature use of FT8 DXpedition Mode
We are all experimenters. Give us a tool that is new and we will use it and shake it until it exhauts. You know we would use the DXp side of WSJT-X as soon as you released it. Because it's new, because it's shining, because it's what we expected, because we don't know what to expect but we are curious. Comme on: you release the monster... now you know that we will not listen to reason: it is your responsibility to limit the effect of the beast, for your developers' team has got the means to do it.

Re: [wsjt-devel] Premature use of FT8 DXpedition Mode
And about the expedition using DXp without the authorization of the development team (and who did not read the readme file either): I find, for one, that they are doing a very good job. They found how to publicize their expedition (freq and time), and, with the number of bugs in the app, they manage to give a significant number of ham reports. look to me people you should ask how they did it! Just in case you are walking down an improvement process.

[wsjt-devel] SOLVED: Difficulties to get WSJT-X to accept UDP type 4 message from server
Good day, My server works in sync with WSJT-X now. My mistakes might be of interest for others, so I wish to share this conclusion with you. First of all, I wish to thank David, Laurie VK3AMA, Brian and Bill G4WJS for their suggestions to my previous messages. They gave me feedbacks that made me identify 4 mistakes. A brilliant demonstration of team value! - First one was a misuse of QTime type: at one line of my code I had forgotten that QTime is NOT Unix time. - Second a mix-up of hex code in utf8 where ascii was expected. - Third a complete misunderstanding of this sentence: "the message exactly describes a prior decode" that lead me to substitute the CQ in the DECODE message by my call. I should not have modified the message text. - Last was the socket sendto sending to the multicast address instead of the client IP address. I was expecting WSJT-X to listen for diagrams on the multicast group. Thank a lot again for the efficient help.

[wsjt-devel] More on Difficulties to get WSJT-X to accept UDP type 4 message from server
I have digged deeper in my problem: a) Network infra: The server uses a multicast group. There is no router between the WSJT-X client and the server; only a switch. I have verified with tcpdump on both sides that the packet are seen by both camps. b) I have written a quick PHP client that I have plugged on the same network as the server and the WSJT-X client. The server and the PHP client establish a 2 way dialog with no pain. The WSJT-X client stays deaf. However it speaks as expected. For example, I receive this DECODE message from WSJT-X: 2018/03/22 20:07:59 server.php - Received 66 bytes from remote IP: 192.168.60.53:63580 2018/03/22 20:07:59 server.php magic binary : [adbccbda] 2018/03/22 20:07:59 server.php schema binary : [0002] 2018/03/22 20:07:59 server.php type of message binary : [0002] 2018/03/22 20:07:59 server.php DECODE id : [0006: WSJT-X] 2018/03/22 20:07:59 server.php DECODE new : [01] 2018/03/22 20:08:00 server.php DECODE time : [72465000 -> 20:07:45] 2018/03/22 20:08:00 server.php DECODE snr : [ffef -> 0010 -> -17] 2018/03/22 20:08:00 server.php DECODE delta time : [3fd9a000 -> 0.4000596046] 2018/03/22 20:08:00 server.php DECODE delta : [1703 Hz] 2018/03/22 20:08:00 server.php DECODE mode : [0001: ~] 2018/03/22 20:08:00 server.php DECODE message : [000c: CQ K1VK FN42] 2018/03/22 20:08:00 server.php DECODE Low confidence : [00] 2018/03/22 20:08:00 server.php DECODE Off air : [00] The server asks WSJT-X to initiate a response with this message: 2018/03/22 20:08:29 server.php SEND TO WSJT-X id : [00064c4f47474552 size: 0006] 2018/03/22 20:08:29 server.php SEND TO WSJT-X time : [0451ba68 -> 0451ba68 -> 20:07:45] 2018/03/22 20:08:29 server.php SEND TO WSJT-X snr : [ffef -> -17] 2018/03/22 20:08:29 server.php SEND TO WSJT-X deltatime : [3fd9a000 -> 0.4000596046] 2018/03/22 20:08:29 server.php SEND TO WSJT-X delta : [06a7 -> 1703 Hz] 2018/03/22 20:08:29 server.php SEND TO WSJT-X mode : [00017e] 2018/03/22 20:08:29 server.php SEND TO WSJT-X message : [000f4b31564b20463642484b204a4e3234 -> len: 000F -> K1VK F6BHK JN24] 2018/03/22 20:08:29 server.php SEND TO WSJT-X lowconfidence : [00] 2018/03/22 20:08:29 server.php SEND TO WSJT-X modifiers : [00] 2018/03/22 20:08:29 server.php SEND TO WSJT-X frame : [adbccbda0002000400064c4f474745520451ba68ffef3fd9a6a700017e000f4b31564b20463642484b204a4e3234] 2018/03/22 20:08:29 server.php SEND TO WSJT-X frame envoyee : [68 bytes, 239.73.0.0:2237 UDP: 68] WSJT-X ignore the message.

Good Evening While I am able to received and decode all the messages that come out of WSJT-X via UDP, I have some difficulties to get WSJT-X client to accept the server type 4 messages. I have checked in the settings all 3checkboxes "Accept UDP requests", "Notify on accepted UDP request", "Accepted UDP requests restores windows" in the hope to get some feedback from the client. I was expecting some updates on the client window with some of the data contained in the UDP message I send and an acknowledgement and/or an error message. But my messages must be ill-formed, for I get out of WSJT-X nothing except when the UDP message is really, and voluntarily, broken (there is a popup window screaming about bad format). I use version 1.9rc2 on Win7 pro, and this version works like a charm when used manually (I mean with the mouse/keyboard). I have double checked the message format I send and I am pretty confident that it is following the definition in NetworkMessage.hpp Should my expectations be correct, is there a way to get more details about what happens to WSJT-X when it gets my message, such as error messages, trace log, etc? I could not find anything on UDP dialog in the User's manual nor did I find a startup option or something else to help me. Thank you for your answers 73, Serge PS: keep up the very good work guys! FT8 is fun!
