Re: [wsjt-devel] WSJT-X v2.2.0 Issue (Both RCs)

2020-05-27 Thread Steve Sacco
I checked with a JTDX (built on WSJT-X, of course) version2.1.0-rc144,
which is long in the tooth.  Same issue of losing the sound card.

Re: [wsjt-devel] WSJT-X v2.2.0 Issue (Both RCs)

2020-05-27 Thread Steve Sacco
So the interesting thing is that this *never* happened previous to WSJT-X
v2.2.0.  I've been running this hardware setup for nearly two years.

Also interesting is that merely shutting down WSJT-X and restarting it
resolves the issue.

I have to see how JTDX behaves.

[wsjt-devel] WSJT-X v2.2.0 Issue (Both RCs)

2020-05-26 Thread Steve Sacco
After holding back on trying out v2.2.0-rc1, I finally installed it.  It
was right around Microsoft Patch Tuesday, IIRC, but don't recall whether
it  was prior to applying those latest patches, or not.

Ever since, I've noted that whenever my PC turns off my screen (as part of
the power management settings - and note that I have "When plugged in, PC
goes to sleep after Never" set), WSJT-X loses the output audio setting,
although it is still set correctly in the drop-down box - and transmits
through my speakers.

If I simply shut down WSJT-X, and start it back up, it immediately works
correctly.  This is 100% repeatable.

I presume this is a WSJT-X v2.2.0 issue, and not a Windows 10 problem, as
all other software I'm running seems to be working fine.

Please let me know what I can do to assist.

[wsjt-devel] Screen Capture

2018-06-23 Thread Steve Sacco NN4X

  
  
Another way to accomplish screen captures is to use Window's
"Snipping Tool".  I use it constantly, and it has built-in editing
features that allow you to draw on it.

Look for "Snipping Tool"; it'll have this icon:

David -
Yes, agree it looks
incorrect, and I noted the forwardslash-instead-of-backslash one
of the previous times I've reported this problem, but was told
that it would be interpreted correctly.  Windows does not, so
I'm not sure where that interpretation/translation would occur,
as I'll guess Fortran is trying to open a file name that's been
placed in variable.

Btw: S9ZZ is currently using FT8 DXped mode almost every day. I tried to work him on 20m a couple of days ago, but the situation was so chaotic that I left frequency. Many hams were calling him also on audio frequencies below 1000 Hz, and in 99 % S9ZZ answered only to one station at the same time. Means no win by DXped mode. Still much to be learned...

Re: [wsjt-devel] Menus & Monitor // r8642

2018-05-16 Thread Steve Sacco NN4X

  
  
Hi Joe -
The open WSJT-X
application, which had been running in Monitor #2, moves itself
to Monitor #1 the moment I uncheck the "Menus" box.  On Monitor
#1, it is, as it should be, not displaying the menus.
Re-checking the "Menus"
box, WSJT-X stays on monitor #1.
  
Mike advises that this is not a bug.  

Thanks/73,
Steve

  I don't know what you mean by "WSJT-X jumped to Monitor #1".
  
  
  If the Menu box is unchecked, the top-of window menus are not
  supposed to be displayed.  So what was unexpected ??

  Hi Steve,
  unfortunately your message text and the screen capture both do
not show the important part of the error message detail. The
next time it happens push the "Show Details ..." to show the

the full error text to the Windows clipboard so that it can be

[wsjt-devel] The Real Question.

2018-05-09 Thread Steve Sacco NN4X

  
  
Greetings, all.  Thank
you,  WSJT development team for your amazing work.  I was on 6M
last evening, working E's across the U.S., and was really
appreciating how in just one year, FT8 has taken over the band,
and essentially displaced both SSB and CW for DXing.  In just
one year!
  
Anyway, regarding Mike
W9MDB and other's comments regarding the use of FT8, which have
been a recurring theme:  So the question really is "What are the
bounds of control for the WSJT development team to restrict the
use of WSJT-X?".
There seems to be a PoV
which holds that, Apple/Steve Jobsian-like, the WSJT team has
the right (and, indeed the responsibility, because you cannot trust
the Great Unwashed!!) to delimit the use of WSJT down to some
unspecified level of detail.   IIRC, this granularity is
currently limited to frequency usage.  I also recall a setting
buried somewhere in WSJT-X which sets a signal strength
threshold, above which the signal will be ignored.  I don't know
the back-story behind this signal strength idea, but it hints
once again about "control".  
  
The logical conclusion
of this PoV would include check-in of WSJT-X with a central
control point for:
    1) Ensuring that
the user is authorized by the WSJT-X development team to use the
product
  
    2) Confirming that
the proposed frequencies are "Approved" by the WSJT-X
development team
    3) Confirming that
the proposed station on the other end of the QSO is also
authorized by the WSJT-X development team
  
    4) Confirming that
use use of WSJT-X is allowed within some WSJT-X development team
specified date/time range
    5) Etcetera: Use
your imagination: Has the user donated to the support of the
product?  Is the user running a "supported" version within some
WSJT-X development team's definition of  the timeframe of what
"supported" means?  There is literally no limit to what could be
used to restrict its use.
  
 
  
I would suggest that
this is a profoundly bad path to follow.  The developers are not
responsible for the use of the tool, and rather than expending
valuable energy on attempting to control its use from their
by-definition narrow view of the world, should instead focus on
education and inclusion.  For the DXpeditions that are
experimenting with the in-development DXpedition mode, rather
than being critical of their use, reach out to them for data
which could help improve the product, and/or offer to work with
them ahead of time to acquire the data and coach them how to use
the features.
All IMHO, obviously,
but I felt it needed saying.
73,
Steve
NN4X

There apparently was somebody on 20M FT8 last night in
  Fox mode from a relatively rare location and caused a mess
  on 14.074.  Everybody though he was calling simple CQ but
  was Fox so wasn't hearing them and users were crowding the
  lower end of 20M trying to get him making even the the
  Fox/Hound exchange problematic.


I don't think we can leave this up to "operator
  responsibility" as there are just too many out there.


So throwing out a few ideas to hopefully open up the
  discussion


#1 Active solution -- Add a "Fox" setting to the
  frequency list which is hard-coded for the "standard"
  bands and would prevent enabling Fox or Hound mode on
  those entries with an appropriate message.
#2 Passive solution -- Detect Fox/Hound messages during
  decode and don't display them at all unless you have the
  modes enabled.  This would not stop older versions from
  seeing the decoding though.
#3 Simple solution -- Whenever Fox mode is selected a
  big warning message comes up about band usage.

I left WSJT-X 1.9.0-rc4 running all day today.  Early afternoon,
  I turned off the rig to run an errand, and then turned it back on
  when I returned.  I had not been paying attention to what WSJT-X
  was doing, but when I finally did, I saw a message box with the
  message:
