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

As I remember, this is the same method that I used on my TS-590 and it worked 
very well.  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.

Merry Christmas all.

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.

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 ?

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.

[wsjt-devel] Split mode settings

2019-12-23 Thread Claude Frantz

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 ?


Best wishes,
Claude (DJ0OT)
