Re: [wsjt-devel] RC3 Issues

Update. If I stay in tab 1 when I click on someone to call, it will sequence. If I start CQ with TX6 then it sequences. I have generally stayed in tab 2 in RC2 and prior with no issues. Switching back to tab 2 sequences fine after that. Exiting the program and starting CQ from tab 2 works fine

[wsjt-devel] Reminder: Mock "FT8 Roundup" Contest is tomorrow

A one-hour "practice contest" will be held tomorrow (Wednesday evening, NA time) using the FT8 mode and the ARRL RTTY Roundup rules. Date and time: Thursday, 25 October 0200-0300 UTC Dial frequency 7.078 (and higher, in 2 kHz increments, if too much QRM). Everyone works everyone. To partici

Definitely 77-bit. I had only checked and could eventually hear responding stations. Just strange, imho. Lots of variables. I currently chalk it up to over-driving the transmit audio, but just curious if there was anything else I may have missed. Best, Jotrdan On Tue, Oct 23, 2018 at 12:16 PM

The other option was perhaps it was a true FT8 signal, but running the legacy mode, maybe overmodulated or excessive hum on their transmission. Try unchecking the receive ONLY 77bit and see if you can decode it then. If you can, don't forget to uncheck the ALWAYS transmit 77bit to work them. On Tu

Interesting. Could be, but I don't think this instance was exactly this. FT8Call (JS8Call now) doesn't use an every other tx cycle when calling CQ, so it seems that this was indeed an FT8 signal. They called every other cycle for about 2 minutes on the same frequency until I was able to decode the

If you are on the 77bit frequencies on 40 or 20, then the most likely culprit is you are seeing the non-conforming FT8Call (now JS8Call) signals. They are totally incompatible with the standard FT8 either old school or RC3 77bit. I see these all the time and are usually very strong when compared

Hi Folks, Testing out RC3 today and 77-bit FT8 I found some very strong signals in the band that were troublesome to decode. Now, I'm fairly fluent in FT8 and I keep my Elecraft station configured properly. NTP for time synchronization (ony a few ms divergence), AGC Off, RF gain/ATTN set so the i

As stated by Joe Taylor, RC3 is NOT designed for DXP until the full release. It uses 77 bit and none of the DXP are using that mode since it is still in beta. VP6D specifically stated NOT to use RC3 and use v1.9.1 for this exact reason. On Tue, Oct 23, 2018 at 4:39 AM David Spoelstra wrote: >
