The band was really up and down here, with some rapid QSB also. A few times I saw signals with gaping holes in them, other times somone would disappear entirely only to come back a couple minutes later. Propagation is a harsh misteress! 73 -Jim NU0c On Wed, 14 Nov 2018 00:30:13 -0600, Stan Ga

Well, it did but obviously I missed it probably because I was looking for a check box instead of an entry box. And it was late. In my defense I also did a text search of the QSG and the online manual. Thanks for your answer. 73 -Jim NU0C On Wed, 14 Nov 2018 08:46:22 -0500, Joe Taylor wrote:

Same here.  I too compiled from source on Kubuntu 18.04. Good to work you Jim. Could have been band conditions, but it seem like I had a few decode problems with stations that the exchanged signal levels should have decoded on both ends. Colors were all gray at first, so I missed a few that

Hi Joe, Thanks for the new WSJT-X release, I think I'm going to test it right today. Despite my great interest of testing RC4, I'm a bit worry about the possibility to meet other stations in my area using the new FT8 protocol, may be this being easy in the USA but I guess will be more difficult i

Thanks to all who have installed RC4, read the new Quick-Start Guide, and proceeded to make QSOs using the new FT8 protocol. Transition to the v2.0 protocol seems to be going smoothly. Most people with RC4 are using the standard FT8 dial frequencies and remembering to transmit above Tx Freq 2

The five minute mouse timer business is going too far. Long MSK144 qsos over difficult paths, should not require the OP to be chained to the desk. Several ops are running (on a clear freq), for hours to complete. They aren't sitting in front of the mouse. The developers may not approve of this ope

Congrats, dev team. Running smoothly so far (Mac OS 10.14). Not sure I understand the intent of the five minute no-mouse timer. Isn’t this essentially competing with the watchdog? Not sure of a use case that requires this second timer. Can you elaborate? Thanks George J Molnar KF2T, Arlingt
