I recently learned of a cross-platform companion to WSJT-X called
GridTracker. It seems to offer some capabilities similar to JTAlertX. It

As others have said, JT-Alert is built for this. If you use WSJT-X on 
Windows, you really need to be using JT-Alert as well.


I won't use WSJT-X without JT-Alert.

Re: [wsjt-devel] Proposed FT8 Frequencies for ARRL Field Day

2019-05-30 Thread WB5JJJ
As previously stated the unique format for exchanges of FD messages would
cause extreme frustration for those that don't know what's going on.  Thus
the migration to other frequencies is a very logical decision which should
be supported by both sides.  As Gary said, there is a large group that
could care less about FD ops.  Just listen to them on the voice segments.
At least in voice, you have the option to quickly give the proper response
and move on.  This is not so easy, on purpose, with FT8 and future FT4
ops.

I have created a CONFIGURATION that is for "other" uses such as DXPeditions
and rare DX.  I have all of those special frequencies in these
configurations.  With a couple of mouse clicks, I can get in or out of any
configuration and some even come up in F/H mode automatically.  When done,
the same procedure returns me to normal FT8.

Tim,

I think these are good.  They will help separate the FD FT8 operations from
the casual FT8 operations.  Important as we all know  the exchanges are
different.  If everyone is one the same frequency (usual FT8 frequencies)

Perhaps.  But think about it: most likely there are hundreds of ways in 
which someone can mis-configure or otherwise misuse WSJT-X in a way that 
makes standard QSOs difficult or impossible.


We can't prevent all of these possibilities, and we may show minimal

Hi Rich,

I expect so. The fact that there is a minor defect doesn't obviate users

Hi Mike and Jari,

I will qualify that. For compound calls the above is true but for other
non-standard calls it is not. There is a defect that causes the option to
skip Tx1 to be allowed for non-standard non-compound calls, in that case a
double-click of a CQ decode will incorrectly send Tx2. Despite that users
with non-standard non-compound calls still need to understand the
implications and should not select the option to skip Tx1.

Also as Reino, OH3MA, has just pointed out, the DX may have attempted to 
tail-end Jari's previous QSO by double-clicking a decode from him. That 
too would set up Tx2 as the Tx message when the option to skip Tx1 is 
enabled. It is the same problem, either way WSJT-X should not use Tx2 as 
the response to a double-clicked decode whether the option to skip Tx1 
is enabled or not.

YES.

You're assuming ME is a nonstandard call, which needs 58 bits to be sent 
in full.  In your example the hashed call  uses 12 bits.  That

You may never see a CQ.


Mike,

you should either try such messages with the ft8code application or 
review the message packing code before making such suggestions. In 
short, it is not a valid standard message. Only RRR, RR73 or 73 are

Hi Mike and Jari,

there is no need to send CQ, the Tx1 message sent in reply to a CQ will 
also populate the hash table. It seems in this case that the DX has 
started with the TX2 message, that will only work if the CQ caller has 
copied another QSO involving the DX which is not a very good strategy as 
they have no way of knowing if that is so.

Whoever is calling you is a non-standard callsign that you have not seen 
before.So the hash code that is being sent is not in your lookup table.If 
nobody ever sends their callsign without hashing it the only time you'll see it 
is when they call CQ...then it would be in your lookup table.
Maybe WSJT-X should ensure such users send CQ once in a while...that would be 
non-intuitive.  A simple message in the decode window or such that said "CQ 
needed, non std call" with a help file reference to 'splain things.

 Got this surprise. 

Station call me several times and all I got was:  <...> and report. Something 
wrong in the call sign. Very likely setting gone wrong, but does user see it 
incorrectly or does it come out bad?

Thought to post here, in case station recognices him/her self ( women dont do 
errors like this, or do they? )
Just to increase knowledge for users and fyi developers
