You can run a 2nd copy of WSJT-X (perhaps the other version that had problems?) and see if it locks up. Just add the -r option and pick a name wsjtx -r test de Mike W9MDB On Saturday, July 6, 2019, 04:57:44 PM CDT, Hasan al-Basri wrote: 31 hours and counting since I installed the de

Hi Bill, Ok. Will report back to you. I do not have the radio here right now and I would like to obtain it again to make sure the error occurs again before spending any more of your time on it. 73 Phil W1PJE On Sat, Jul 6, 2019 at 19:59 Bill Somerville wrote: > On 06/07/2019 23:59, Phil Ericks

We are testing the log submittal and log checking process for the upcoming WW Digi DX Contest at the end of August. We need logs to test with. At the end of May 2019, I worked over 600 QSOs on FT8 and FT4 as P49X. I would appreciate it if anyone who worked P49X on the FT modes would please

Hi Rich, I’ve observed the same, exactly as you described. Had put it down to urban reflections, perhaps more obvious when W3/W4 is beaming N/NE. Agree with you they are not aircraft scatter. George J Molnar Arlington, Virginia, USA (702) 767-5420 KF2T - FM18lv > On Jul 6, 2019, at 4

Here in the Mid-Atlantic, a number of 6 Meter FT8 DXers have observed backscatter signals that appear as a 2nd or even a 3rd signal on the WSJT-X Wide Graph window. The Doppler shifted frequency is usually lower than the direct signal. In addition to the directly received FT8 signal appearing on th

When those sidebands are 60 Hz steps from the main signal, then there is a 60 Hz mains and the audio going into an nonlinear part in the transmitter and those signals are mixed together. More often the sidebands are in 120 Hz steps due to full wave rectification in power supply. If in an power a
