Hi,
First: thank you all for a phenomenal tool !
I have a question/issue : I cannot make the split mode work with a ft-991a
interfaced to a Mac.
I’m using v1.7.0 r7405
I can make my radio move to another frequency on VFOa when in “fake it” mode.
I can also make my rig go into split mode with VF

I run multiple instances of WSJT-X 1.7.1 simultaneously under Windows 10
64-bit. Normally 10 or 12 per computer. Each instance is started with
the --rig_name= parameter and writing to a different directory
under $APPDATA, such as:

I’d like to correct the following:

I do see his note now at the bottom of the tables.
His "implicit + 1" is probably because you always want the low order bit set.
I see his hdlen utilty also expects implicit+1 for the poly argument.

I note that it doesn't have an even number of bits (yes that is
confusing too) so apparently cannot detect all errors with an odd
number of bits set according to this:

Hi Mike and Bill -
The LDPC decoder will either produce a valid codeword, or nothing (an erasure).
The CRC is being used to detect these invalid codewords. If the code is any
good to begin with, an incorrect codeword will differ from the correct one in
quite a few bits, i.e. we should see only

Hi Steve & Mike,
I can confirm that the highest order coefficient of the CRC polynomial
never needs to be given so to use:
/x^12 + x^11 + x^3
I noticed Phillip has update his webiste since the 2004
publicationhttps://users.ece.cmu.edu/~koopman/crc/index.html
Now recommends 0x8f3 as the best 12-bit poly.
Testing 0xc06 gives this which shows 0xc06 cannot achieve HD=4

HI Mike,
in this case the CRC is checked after FEC using LDPC so the error rates
should be low.

Actually, reading his website it's even less clear what should be used
He says these polynomials are only good for a low BER of 1/100,000.

If we're wanting to save bits the table given in the reference is quite handy.
Also handy for determining the best poly to use.So if we're doing 72 bits you
can do a 8-bit CRC with 0x97 to give HD=4, but to get HD=5 you need a 14-bit
CRC. 12-bit solutions probably give better hamming distances

Hi Mike,
I took the polynomial that Steve used, 0x0c06, and applied his incorrect
assumption that the lowest order coefficient was truncated and assumed
to be 1:
0x0c06 x 2 + 1 = 0x180d = /x/^12 + /x/^11 + /x/^3 + /x/^
Where'd you get 0x180d from?.The reference on this uses a 48-bit data word and
poly 0xc07 and actually recommends 0x8f8 as it achieves HD=5 where 0xc07
achieves HD=4. 0x8f8 also has a lower hamming weight when you sum HD4 through
HD6.We want the highest detection of all possible corruptions, don
Hi Mike and Bill -
OK - I clearly need to work out some CRC’s by hand and make sure that I
understand what the routine is calculating.
In any case, I believe that what matters is the final undetected error rate

Having said that, 0x080f looks more promising.

I believe Mike is correct. When using 8-bit, 16-bit, 32-bit, 64-bit etc

Don't they mean the high order bit and not the low order one?
The templates they give show the correct polynomials and changing to 0xc07 does
change the answer so the low order bit is not ignored.
