My humble opinion is that the reported frequency should be sum of the frequency 
display and the waterfall frequency. That’s in case those are really what is 
actually transmitted. Joe’s case is a bit different and in that sense a 
selection may be needed.

That value is meant to only change during band change to avoid messing up 
typing into the freq box.  It's only used in the one place.

 

Unless Joe has some other observation it doesn't appear to me that this change 
harms anything.  Making it an option just means nobody will know to use it to 
avoid the problem.  And we've had plenty of reports of pskreporter things being 
wrong which we've already done some work on to minimize errors.  It's pretty 
critical that pskreporter spots are correct for any number of reasons.

Mike,

 

Thanks for looking at this.

 

I intentionally proposed an option because Joe had indicated there were reasons 
it was implemented to use table frequency rather than current dial frequency.

 

By implementing as an option those who like the way it works now would see no 
change.  

 

I documented a more extreme case than had been in included in draft 2.  With no 
frequency table loaded I tuned a spot collector CW spot at 21.011900.   I 
couldn't hear the spot so I used rig conrols to set USB mode and 21.074000.   
PSK Reporter showed all the stations I decoded  as offsets from 21.011900!

 

e.g.

Dial frequency 21.074

All.txt decode 240728_174145    21.012 Rx FT8    -12 -0.8 1465 BD4WVQ K4JOM EM60

PSK Reporter showed K4JOM received at 21.013.365

This small change fixes the problem.

Adding this outside the if clause ensures it is updated with current 
information...

m_freqNominalPeriod = m_freqNominal;

 

Although we should probably not do pskreporter when the frequency changes like 
this as we aren't sure which frequency was decoded.

void MainWindow::displayDialFrequency ()

{

  if (ui->actionUse_Dark_Style->isChecked()) 
ui->bandComboBox->setStyleSheet("QLineEdit {background-color: #31363b}");  // 
initialize dark style at startup

  Frequency dial_frequency {m_rigState.ptt () && m_rigState.split () ?

      m_rigState.tx_frequency () : m_rigState.frequency ()};

 

  // lookup band

  auto const& band_name = m_config.bands ()->find (dial_frequency);

  m_freqNominalPeriod = m_freqNominal;

  if (m_lastBand != band_name)

"What rig do you have that WSJT-X does not follow rig freq changes? 

 

Mike W9MDB"

 

 

I have no such rig.  WSJT-X follows my rig frequency with 1 Hz resolution as 
indicated in the draft paper.

 

The issue is not that WSJT-X does not follow the rig frequency.  The issue is 
that WSJT-X knows the rig frequency but may report a different frequency to 
ALL.TXT and PSK Reporter.  

 

Would you please read the full draft and let me know if any part needs 
clarification.

 

Thanks and 73,

Andy, k3wyc
