You can do that with a Screen Capture program now.   Windows 10 includes one, and Gadwin Print Screen is free for the download in 32 & 64 bit versions. Neil, KN3ILZ On 6/27/2018 5:50 PM, Bill Turner wrote: Most FT8 users have email addresses in QRZ, so you can send them a screen shot. In my

Dear devs, I recently upgraded my Mac to OSX 10.13.5 and started noticing a strange behavior when starting WSJTX-1.9.x (the two may not be related). When I start WSJTX-1.9.0 or 1.9.1, I get a small textbox popup that reads in part "Transmit digital gain" - the rest gets cut off. This box pops

Most FT8 users have email addresses in QRZ, so you can send them a screen shot. In my experience (and my end fed antenna) 60 to 70 watts for long haul contacts are not unusual. I might be running 5 watts if I had a five element beam and a 70 foot tower! Sent from Yahoo Mail on Android On

Maybe just one 8 or 16-bit value with bits set to different indicators perhaps?That would allow for future expansion without expanding the message. de Mike W9MDB On Wednesday, June 27, 2018, 4:17:46 PM CDT, Laurie, VK3AMA <_vk3a...@vkdxer.net> wrote: On 28/06/2018 12:00 AM,

How are you proposing this be done? You can't see your own signal except with another rig. de Mike W9MDB On Wednesday, June 27, 2018, 4:27:57 PM CDT, Edfel Rivera wrote: Hi: IMO, having the program send a small capture of the generated TX signal might be useful to know how much

Hi: IMO, having the program send a small capture of the generated TX signal might be useful to know how much power is being used. Sometimes other radio operators complaints of too much power used for TX. But in my experience, some distant QSO requires more power to get a complete contact. What

Thank you all for your tips and feedback and for such a quick response. I actually agree with Tom after some further thought; it's probably not a terrific idea to change the filename of the log(s) just as a poor man's convenience hack and potentially break existing scripts when there's other ways

I would say B & C. Seems like it might be also be pretty useful for the hams with mobile and other country calls. C could probably be in the preferences windows though, as most people using the function probably would do so almost always. Al Pawlowski, K6AVP Los Osos, CA USA > Date: Tue, 26
