I just worked then with one call -- they have multiple signals a bit apart from each other, but working them is not difficult. Just use normal FT8 protocols.

Has anyone observed the FT8 operation of the PJ4P expedition team? Maybe I’m missing something obvious, but….

It LOOKS they’re operating as a Fox, but on the conventional FT8 frequencies.

Saw the same thing this afternoon. I think it was on 17m.

Their transmissions are varying between < 500Hz and > 1000Hz.

In my case, they were ~200-300

I know this isn’t a Developer issue, but I trust the folks on his list. I’m after PJ4 on 160M, but wasted an entire evening last night trying to figure out how to work them.

I wouldn’t waste my time trying to work them, since they aren’t “playing by the rules”, i.e. using the software the way it was intended, on the frequencies it was intended for. Working them just reinforces the fact that they can do it and people will still QSO them, so why change.
