Hi Saku, It is much easier to use a proper contest logging program. There are many out there.  I use the programs from N3FJP -- they are easy to set up and use.  They do everything you need. Larry / W1DYJ On 10/14/2022 4:29, Saku via wsjt-devel wrote: Hi! Sorry if this feature exist. I di

They came back to me with a signal report three times, but then someone else in FN42 jumped on top of my frequency with more power and the Q never could complete. This may be what is happening to you. Lots of hams calling, and not necessarily looking for an open frequency. 73 -- Larry -- W1D

Hi Chris, Even if you double-clicked, he/she would have to chose which ham to go back to of the many calling on frequency. I see this many times, especially with DX. I do find it *usually* more successful to call the DX split. 73 -- Larry -- W1DYJ From: Hasan al-Basri Sent: Monday, Dec

Hi Bill, I was going to say the /ME was not illegal, especially with the space: W1DYJ /ME. In fact, as mentioned I have been using this for a year now from my Maine QTH and it has been helpful, as FN43 is not specific to Maine. 1.9.1 did not filter any free form messages as far as I could te

Hi, I have just switched to 2.0 RC5. I use it mainly for HF/FT8. With FT8 and when at my 2nd home in Maine, I usually change my TX6 -- the autoloaded CQ W1DYJ FN43 -- to CQ W1DYJ /ME as Maine is far more important info than just FN43 (v1.9.1). NOW, it won’t take the /ME (v2.0 RC5). When I tr
