Re: [wsjt-devel] Dsec control for WSJT-X

2019-05-06 Thread Mark Turner via wsjt-devel
A Dsec would be useful where time is perfectly well synchronised but the system incorporates a fixed and known delay, such as might exist on a remote station where the audio stream is decoded locally. Regards, Mark On 06/05/2019 12:36, Bill Somerville wrote: On 06/05/2019 11:49, Jay Hainline

[wsjt-devel] an idea (low priority)

2018-05-15 Thread Mark Turner via wsjt-devel
Having just watched another station sending a "CHK TIMING" message in FT8, which is obviously not likely to succeed... I was wondering if a non-timing-critical "message" could be added to the protocol, e.g. four continuous tones - or some such combination that is unlikely to happen randomly,

Hi Bob, could you also look at the scenario where Tx5 is being used to send qrz, e.g. "QRZ EI3KD". A reply to this isn't handled well by auto-sequencing. In fact, when doing this, it didn't even seem to be possible to double-click on a caller to fill the fields, without halting tx first?

Hi Jim, I concur re habitually unchecking "Lock Tx=Rx" when sending Tx6 ("CQ") - I curse myself when I've forgotten to do it and someone calls me split, consequently finding myself dragged off to their qrg. Calling cq and then accidentally leaving the original qrg seems to be considerably

Re: [wsjt-devel] FT8 multiple decodes

2017-07-24 Thread Mark Turner via wsjt-devel
Bill, I'm currently trying to capture some examples where the WSJT-X waterfall appears to become corrupt with multiple images of signals, along with multiple decodes - I see this fairly frequently when using FT8, and have also seen it very rarely with JT65, including on older versions of

+/- 1.5s shouldn't present a problem to anyone, even, just about, for people (e.g. some dxp) that rely on crude GPS NMEA serial data time synchronisation. In the (unlikely?) event that an even shorter DT window is ever considered, I'd like to request that a small range of DT adjustment be

Re: [wsjt-devel] adding a "skip TX1" checkbox

2017-07-20 Thread Mark Turner via wsjt-devel
Hi Bill, could it be implemented it such that, if set, "Skip Tx 1" is simply ignored if the dx call is a compound callsign? In fact the whole Tx1/RR73 thing might be boiled down to a more generic option, like "minimal", or "optimise", or similar - i.e. attempt to use the least number of
