While I'm not running the same hardware, and running win 10, I've had 
the same two things happen to me several times. In addition I've had 
Halt Tx not halt.

Hi.

I just joined this list.  I'm enjoying using FT8 on HF bands.  Many thanks to 
Joe Taylor and Steve Franke.  I'd like to report what I think is buggy behavior 
in the FT8 auto-sequencing state machine.  In future I hope to contribute to 
development of this very cool software.

Environment

My radio is a Flex 6300.  My computer is a MacBook Pro running macOS 10.12.6.  I'm using 
VMware Fusion Pro 8.5.10 to run a Windows 8.1 VM, which is up-to-date with 
"important" patches.  I'm using SmartSDR 1.11.12 and WSJT-X 1.9.0-rc3.

Example 1

In the following QSO, I responded to his CQ but didn't hear back right away and 
disabled transmission.  A minute later I received a -19 signal report from him 
(A) and double-clicked on it.  The software sent a -20 signal report to him 
(B).  I think it should have sent R-20, with an R.  (Nonetheless, the QSO 
proceeded to a successful conclusion.)

015730 -20 -0.2 1378 ~  CQ N0GOS DN70
015747  Tx  2258 ~  N0GOS W6SDD DN70
015815  Tx  2258 ~  N0GOS W6SDD DN70
...

020100 -20 -0.3 1377 ~  W6SDD N0GOS 73
020115  Tx  2258 ~  N0GOS W6SDD 73

Example 2

This next QSO proceeded normally up to the point where he sent RRR and I sent 
73.  I have the software configured to disable transmission once I have sent 
73.  A minute later he sent RRR again (C).  I double-clicked on it.  The 
software sent him an R-18 signal report (D).  I think it should have sent 73.  
I selected 73 from the list of messages and the software sent 73 on my next 
turn.

I hope this is helpful.

I've never heard of the reason why it was ever connected in the first 
place.Only thing I can think of is somebody wanted the meter to reflect what 
the waterfall was doing which is of dubious use now that the Flatten option is 
a much better solution.
And it really did not affect the "input dB reading".  When it was hooked up it 
affected the "waterfall Db level".

Hi Neil,

it never has been a digital gain control for anything but the 
waterfall and 2D spectrum graph. That is why it has been disconnected 
from the input level indicator.

[wsjt-devel] Possible bugs v2

2017-07-11 Thread Jari A
Hi again,

I see my error with the slider, it do say "digital gain graph windows"
I assume it was same as its been few years with wsjt-x 1.7. As it change
level display dB level, in the past.

I need to learn better of new features on 1.8.rc1. Too excited to get on
the band with it, so rtfm was obvious thing to being ignored.

I'll read the manual and my absence from here is the marker all is good ;o)

Thanks of the comments

Good night from cold rainy Helsinki.

Hi Neil,

it never has been a digital gain control for anything but the waterfall 
and 2D spectrum graph. That is why it has been disconnected from the

Jari,

the slider is no longer a 'digital gain' that affects sound input, it 
only affect the graph.   Input adjustment is either through your OS 
sound mixer, or physically from your rig. If you put your mouse over 
the slider it will give the 'tool tip' about this.


I've got a KX3, and adjust the sound input using the AF knob.

I think I seen few anomalies: Digital gain does not change input 
level, bar remain green and at 62dB level, even no input signal.


Second thing I note is TX5.
If I do CQ and wish to mark TX 5 after report, autoseq jumps to TX4, 
no matter what. After sequence has started, if I'm quick I can press 
send now button to get my 73 out.


If I manage to type ( opponent station who replied to me) call RRTU73 
to TX5 field, it changes to call call 73 format.


Dunno if these are worth for anything, but atleast I enbarrase myself 
at very first message to this list :o)

I just went through this with another user and he had to take out some very 
noisy cards from his desktop.With no input signal you should see pretty much no 
signal.
The input level has no control anymore from WSJT-X...it never did control the 
recording level...only the waterfall level.  It was very misleading to those 
setting audio like you.
You need to change your recording device to 0dB gain...then adjust your audio 
on the rig input in analog space to 30dB to maybe 50dB or so on the WSJT-X 
meter.
