Hi Rebecca! First of all I'd to say that I'm very pleased to meet a YL so skilled and rich of valuable suggestions and proposals.
I agree with you both on WSJT-X usage regarding the VFO A/B behavior which with this software could be an operator choice, as well as for the possibility to have a separate mailing list dedicated specifically to WSJT-X usage, in order to let the development topics free of everything which is not strictly related to programming, despite here we have not moderators or censors, this list is very friendly and open. Wish you all the best and hope to have the possibility to have a QSO with you on FT8 one of the next days. -- 73 de Marco, PY1ZRJ (former IK5BCU) Il 04/03/19 21:06, Rebecca Milligan ha scritto: > One more thought – if this group really is intended for software > development issues, can a separate user support group be created to keep > the programming and operator issues separate?
