Clint,
I just posted my experiences about receiving WEFAX images from the NWS
on my blog. I've never received WEFAX images before today, so I am a
complete novice to it. I used FLDIGI and a direct audio connection
between my KX3 and computer. Pictures of WEFAX reception I copied are
from NWS
Ummm ... NAVTEX is transmitted on a rotating schedule covering several
dozen "regions" world-wide from a variety of stations, all on 518 KHz.
Each station has a time slot -- 5 mins or so -- and the traffic varies
and is highly repetitive. There is some WX, but it's mainly Notice to
Mariners
Good Luck,
Jack

Clint,
Your brother will find it easier
Clint,
Your brother will find it easier to revise the 518 Khz NavText messages
- which are transmitted every 6 hours (if memory serves me correct). They are a
simply RTTY format. I tried for long time to get HF WeFAX to work - but the
number of stations transmitting it are extremely few
Hi Fred,
I also use MixW for all digital modes, save JT modes... I find that
for me it is far better than any other program out there. I have it
connected to my K3 as well, and it does a good job on the Weather FAX,
as well as all other digital modes. If you have a list of freqs, can
you send
I copy Pacific WEFAX from NMC using my K3 and MIXW, on Windoze 10 now,
but I've done it on 98, XP, and 7 too. MIXW is fairly old, but really
works well. Also copies a variety of other dig modes [no JT's] and
SSTV, should you like to have noisy images of scantily clad women on
your computer.
I am looking for a simple Windows 7, 8, 10 program that can decode NOAA HF
weather faxes using a laptop soundcard. I am helping my bro set-up his boat
and a Marine SSB/Ham radio.
Most programs I see are older, run Lunix or are to complex, we need
something simple. Any ideas?
