[wsjt-devel] DXpedition mode - dupes ignored

2018-07-26 Thread Adrian Fabry
Hi all, big thanks to WSJT developers for creating the FT8 DXpedition mode. Recently, trying to work OJ0C who was using fox mode, I was hit by the "ignore dupes" feature on the fox side. For some reason, I haven't received my RR73 from the fox. I continued to send my R-05 for a while and then

[wsjt-devel] FT8 - Removal of dupes

2017-07-21 Thread Adrian Fabry
I saw that Steve made a change in r7931: "*Only print dupes if SNR is higher than what has already been printed."* IMO dupes are useful in some cases: 1.is interesting to get 2 or 3 decodes of the same call doppler shifted by airplane reflection 2. some stations have side bands, it's good to

2017-07-18 Thread Adrian Fabry
Hi all, with these 3 bits we can have 8 combinations, actually 7 usable, one is by default (let's say 000) for current messages types (standard of free). I would propose to use 1 combination (001) for DXpedition mode: - 001 when CQ or QRZ in DXpedition mode. This will instruct callers to spread

Dear developers, On MSK144 I think it would be helpful to have some info added to the first row, similar to ISCAT mode (M N C T). Please see attached screen captures. Using here r 7873. TNX, 73 Ady YO2NAA

I'd kindly suggest to include a table with all the modes affected by the VHF/UHF/Microwave option and what are the differences when VHF/UHF/Microwave is enabled / disabled. There is a warning on page 9: *"Enabling VHF/UHF/Microwave features necessarily disables the wideband multidecode*

Hi Joe, thank you and all the development team for the work. I'd suggest two features: 1. QRA64: Different color (or using bold chars) for the AP part of the decoded message, when AP was used in the decode. 2. For the saved wav files, mode and submode should be included in the file name 73

Hi All, FT8 working nice here, a big thanks to Joe and Steve. I have collected about 150 FT8 wav files from 20m and 6m (tropo, MS, ES). Some of them no decode, maybe useful to analyze. S/N from -19 to +2dB. https://www.dropbox.com/sh/busdna76pjavht7/AAAXLDcC1sOfarmeLWsMU5vBa?dl=0

Re: [wsjt-devel] A couple of suggestions for consideration

2017-06-08 Thread Adrian Fabry
Hi all, I totally agree with Bill ND0B. Here in EU 50276 is crazy, with a lot of EU-EU QSOs during multihop openings, 99% JT65A, very few JT9 slow. A JT65 DX window will help, imho. On 50280 to 50292 more and more JT9 fast activity, a very good thing, so moving MSK144 to 50260 will help.
