[wsjt-devel] WSJT-X measure mode?

I'm currently using SpectraVue to measure Sun and Moon noise. I'd prefer to use open source and Linux. WSJT used to have a measure mode, but this seems to be missing from WSJT-X. I'm wondering if there's a specific reason for this and if there are plans to implement the feature? - James W7TX

Hi Paul, the current WSPR implementation in WSJT-X calls wsprd to do the decoding, so the ALL_WSPR.TXT file it writes is the same as you would get by using wsprd from the command line. I believe some of the less recent format changes are to columns past the ones most users are interested in,

Re: [wsjt-devel] Release Candidate: WSJT-X 2.3.0-rc1

Hi Paul, you are correct, sending a side-tone for CW identification is a non-starter for a mode that is designed to utilize a constant envelope type of modulation. Apart from that requiring users to use linear amplification, quite an ask when expecting to utilize up to half hour transmissions

Re: [wsjt-devel] Release Candidate: WSJT-X 2.3.0-rc1

Not to ignore the regulatory aspect, but on a technical note: Correct me if I am wrong but wouldn't sending a CW ID simultaneously with message tones require linear amplification to produce an acceptable signal? Many use nonlinear class D and E amplifiers on LF and MF. Actually I suspect the v
