Looking at the WSJT web site, they have packages for Mac and for an assortment of linuxes, but not for iOS. Compiling the source code for iOS is possible, in principle, but iOS makes it hard. One of the smaller Mac laptops, particularly a refurb, might be a reasonable choice. Peter W0LLN O

And to do so the code needs to be built for the specific ISA including linkage to the needed libraries. Some have done it and you could ask for references on the WSJT reflector for experiences. 73 jim ab3cv On Mon, Dec 11, 2017 at 12:38 PM, Christopher Hoover wrote: > p.s. "It" being WSJT-X.

I've been assembling and testing an ulralight portable FT8 setup for use with my KX2, although it's based on an 8-inch Windows 10 tablet. It uses the *Syba SD-AUD20101* USB soundcard. It works very well. I've posted some notes here: http://k3s.wikidot.com/ft8sota 73, Barry N1EU On Mon, Dec 11

I believe all the WSJT software needs Windows and X86 instruction set so iOS or ARM based tablets are out. I looked around bit but finally settled on a Dell 12.5 inch Latitude business laptop. It outweighs the KX2 by 3X but it has three USB 3.0 ports and a bunch of other features. I use it with

I have a very small sound interface, that I got from Amazon. It is about 7/16" thick by 15/16" wide by 1 1/2" deep including the USB plug. The label calls it a FG-UAU01A-1AB-BC21 and i remember it cost in the neighborhood of $5. I have not used if for digital mode operations, but it is adequate
