Forgot to mention my computer info:
Windows 7 Professional (x64), 3.4 Gig Intel Core i7, 8 Gig RAM. I can't believe I missed something in setup...read the Qwick Start Guide twice and even tried reinstalling V2.0 rc2 during the contest. 73 Jeff VE3CV On 27 Sep 2018 10:06, Dave wrote: > First off, Joe and team thank you for this great software.

I have used this version to make contacts with no contest selected so I know it is working properly. I cloned my normal operating configuration and renamed the clone to RTTY RU. When setting up for the ARRL RTTY Roundup I have that ticked and have entered MDC in the Exch: box. I have "FT8 message types" ALWAYS GENERATE and DECODE ONLY 77-BIT MESSAGES ticked. Everything else is the same except I cleared all default frequencies and added only 7.078 and 14.078. > > As soon as I click on OK the messages are converted to RTTY RU mode. e.g. AA5AU W3DLQ 539 MDC and Tx2.0 RTTY is highlighted in a red box on the main screen. This also works when I enter a callsign in the DX Call box and click "Generate Std Msgs" When I clicked on a CQ message the messages are changed to that caller. > > When I clicked on a CQ in the Band Activity window, the messages changed, and TX started. However, in the Rx Frequency window my messages are truncated to AA5AU W3DLQ 5.

I think I'm set up correctly or there is something strange in my set up which is Windows 10 with a FLEX-6500. I was running two slices last evening, one for 20M and the other for 40M. Nothing on 20M but many on 40M were decoded. > > Looked like fun but after I saw what was happening when I transmitted I stopped participating. I didn't want to get flamed for not reading the FTM, not following Joe's directions for setting up the program or other smarta$$ comments. Comments like Don's are appreciated. He made no accusations and merely stated the facts. > > Dave W3DLQ Links: ------ [1] mailto:[email protected] [2] mailto:[email protected]
