[wsjt-devel] Received RR73 Tx4 msg turning off our "Enable Tx"

2021-08-06 Thread Rich - K1HTV via wsjt-devel
Presently on FT8, when we turn on our “Tx enable” button to call a station ending a QSO with another station, when we receive his Tx4 “ RR73” message, WSJT-X disables our “Enable Tx” button. Even when calling with a different Tx tone frequency, as to not cause on-freq QRM, as long as our Rx window

After this past weekend's ARRL VHF contest, one of the top SOHP scorers, Mike, W3IP, posted a note to the PVRC reflector along with the breakdown of his score. In his comments he compared the FT8 sensitivity of WSJT-X vs JTDX. Mike is a technically sharp guy and I trust what he has reported. Here

[wsjt-devel] Exaggerated reports given to lower tone freqs

2021-10-15 Thread Rich - K1HTV via wsjt-devel
Has anyone experienced exaggerated dB signal reports given by WSJT-X to decoded FT8 signals of stations transmitting tone frequencies below 500 Hz? I use a K3 with 2.8 KHz filter using WSJT-X Version 2.5.0 . I have also seen this in earlier versions. When stations using low audio tones are decoded

After downloading and successfully installing the Win64 version of WSJT-X 2.5.3, I made a successful FT8 QSO. After it was complete I sent one "$DX 12345" TX5 macro to that same station with my radio in the test mode. The line for that $DX message transmission appeared fine in the "Rx Frequency" c

I have run into a problem with WSJT-X 2.5.3 when transmitting a TX5 message to any station with a "/" followed by /MM or /P and probably other characters. I'm running the Win 64 bit version on a Windows 10 computer with the latest updates. After transmitting the TX5 message, the receive cycle sta

Many times a day, using the most current and previous WSJT-X improved versions, the background color for the entire Band Activity column changes from the normal white to a color. The only way to go back to the desired no-color background is to do a right click, erase. But that wipes out the recent
