I think it would be great if you would come up with a "good" hour for a practice session in your part of the world and announce it. It just practice and we all could benefit from that.

Of course we know that any time selected will be less than ideal in some parts of the world. The hour-long practice sessions promoted by the WSJT Development Group were scheduled after we requested input from subscribers to wsjt-devel. We went with the advice received (which, as I recall, came almost entirely from NA and EU). Our main goal -- the developers, that is -- was to test the program's operational and user-convenience features. Please feel free to define and promote any practice session(s) that make sense for you. W0YK did just that for the session last evening. At least 73 people showed up, we had fun, and it provided useful input for future programming enhancements. -- Joe _______________________________________________ wsjt-devel mailing list wsjt-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/wsjt-devel
