Re: [wsjt-devel] Split mode settings
Hi Om's This is the way I'm doing split operation on 160m for JA. Now doing FT8 with an IC-7300 and it's a bit different from the IC-775 I was using B4. First off all go into wsjt-x settings/radio and mark None in the Split Operation section. Then go to the Frequencies Tab and insert 1,908 Mhz. On ur radio select VFO B and set it to 1.840 Mhz. Select VFO A and select band in wsjt-x to be 1.908 Mhz. Look in your radios manuel to se how to run split as one does when a DX says UP 5. On the IC-7300 one just have to push the Spilt button. The call CQ JA or CQ 908 . Works here with no problems at all. Just rember to keep ur TX signal within the range of 500-2500 Hz to prevent your TX from Woppeling 73 de Michael 5p1kzx/oz1kzx Den 23-12-2019 kl. 20:07 skrev Gary McDuffie: On Dec 23, 2019, at 04:43, Tom Ramberg via wsjt-devel wrote: I have used this way of doing it with FT1000MP, FT1000MP MarkV and FTdx3000 operating as JW6VDA, and a similar setup also works with my IC7300 from my home station, OH6VDA.

The thing you need to remember is to set your transmit frequency (the one in OUR part of the band) so that it is somewhere over 1500Hz and under about 2200, assuming you have a 2.4 or wider transmit filter. If you keep it between 1.5 and 2K transmit tone frequency, you should be golden. I recently tried to recall the exact setup to help another gentleman use his TS890, but I forgot one of the steps. This all looks good to my logic and I’m going to go home this afternoon and make another attempt at doing my 890. As you said, you do have to ride herd on the transmit frequency by checking to see that you aren’t transmitting on someone else and well within your transmit filter range but above 1500. Of course, this assumes you are using the box to hold your transmit frequency (HOLD) so that it doesn’t wander around with receive mouse clicks.

Re: [wsjt-devel] Split mode settings
Hi Claude! I have used this way of doing it with FT1000MP, FT1000MP MarkV and FTdx3000 operating as JW6VDA, and a similar setup also works with my IC7300 from my home station, OH6VDA. Originally I was put on the right track by Michael 5P1KZS. To operate SPLIT (to work JA) on 160 meters: In WSJT-X set freq. to 1,908 Mhz - will set ur VFO A to 1,908. Set your VFO B to 1.840 Mhz. (Look at the manual to see how operate FT-1000MP, FTdx3000 or IC7300 in "SPLIT-FREQUENCY OPERATION" - set it up to TX on VFO B and RX on A.) In that way WSJT-X thinks it's tx' ing on 1908. Don't mark the "Split setting" in WSJT-X as RIG or FAKE. Mark as "None" in settings. Make sure that your TX VFO is set to USB or USB-D. You will only see the signals on 1908 on your waterfall, so check before TXing and from time to time later how your signal is placed. Choose your audio offset to be between 1500Hz and 2500Hz to ensure your outsignal is in your transmitter's "sweet spot". I usually call CQ JA or CQ 908. It seems to work OK. 73 Tom OH6VDA / JW6VDA > 23. des. 2019 kl. 12:53 skrev Bill Somerville : > > On 23/12/2019 10:37, Claude Frantz wrote: >> Hi all, >> >> Please allow me to ask about the split mode in the sense of a necessity >> resulting from different frequency assignments in different countries, i.e. >> a sort of special form of multi-band operation.

Best wishes, Claude (DJ0OT) Hi Claude, supporting "legacy" split mode in WSJT-X would require a large enhancement. For example some scheme that allowed each working frequency to have an optional independent transmit frequency. I suspect the requirement does not justify the amount of work as few bands and regions suffer these non-compatible frequency allocations. On top band I doubt there are enough stations active with good enough receiving station aerials to take advantage, such that a wide bandwidth slot would be required. Because of that a manual solution is probably the best. You can create a new configuration and in that set "Settings->Radio->Rig->None". You may need to do some work to get PTT working in that configuration if you currently use CAT PTT. Once the new configuration is selected you can manually tune your rig's split Rx and Tx frequencies just like you would in other modes, be sure to pick a Tx VFO dial frequency that allows you to use an audio offset between 1500 Hz and 2500 Hz. I believe the regulators in Japan are addressing the incompatibilities with other regions on 160m. 73 Bill G4WJS. ___ wsjt-devel mailing list wsjt-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/wsjt-devel

Hi all, Please allow me to ask about the split mode in the sense of a necessity resulting from different frequency assignments in different countries, i.e. a sort of special form of multi-band operation. The typical situation is the QSO between a Japanese station and a station in Region 1. What is the recommanded setting in WSJT-X in order to operate under such conditions while maintaining the "special" split at the TX side in order to have the audio between 1.5 and 2 kHz ?
