Re: [wsjt-devel] Operation problem WIN 10 wsjt-x or Flex 6700

That sounds a lot like RFI.  Usually happens on specific bands and certain power levels. Check your audio devices in the sound control panel when it happens to see if audio is going to a different device. de Mike W9MDB On Wednesday, January 2, 2019, 10:00:21 PM CST, bergeracb--- via wsjt-de

[wsjt-devel] Operation problem WIN 10 wsjt-x or Flex 6700

While operating FT8 I get an occasional Problem with wsjt-x quitting transmitting. It is still receiving and decoding OK, but will not  turn the 6700 on and no audio drive is being sent to wsjt-x over the DAX link. When I shut wsjt-x down using the red "X" the wsjt-x program is moved from the ta

Here: http://www.arrl.org/files/file/ContestResults/2019/January%202019%20QST%20-%20Taylor%20-%20FT8.pdf I'm curious where these ranges came from. The 10/15/20 meter ranges look like a good idea, but it seems like 3.590-3.600MHz and 7.080-7.100MHz are recipes for a lot of FT8 frustration. Both of

Hi George, Another approach is to use AUDIO instead of RF for your demo. No radios needed, just laptops. Deliberately route the FT8 audio output to the loudspeaker and use the microphone for audio input. In a typical meeting room, there is generally enough audio level for decoding, above

If you want someone to click that link, you should put some explanation for what it is to convince people that it is legit. I know very few people who would click such a link without knowing what to expect to see there. Wouldn’t touch it with YOUR ten foot pole, much less mine. Gary - AG0N >

Couple of ideas #1 You can actually use speaker/mic to do it so no RF is involved at all. #2 You can run one computer with two big monitors and run 4 or 5 copies of WSJT-X all on virtual audio cables. You can do your own test that way to learn the Fox side a bit better. de Mike W9MDB O

Unfortunately, that had no effect. I would have been surprised if it had, since there is no USB connection between my computer and the radio. Everything goes over Ethernet. I experienced the same thing with my old rig (FTdx5000) when I was connected via USB. So I'll keep looking for a solution. I
