Hi Mark, Your example *.wav files suggest something seriously going wrong in your data acquisition chain. It's unlikely that long-distance attempts at diagnosis can be successful; you'll need to do some sleuthing on your own. --Joe, K1JT On 7/25/2017 1:36 AM, Mark Turner wrote: Hi

Bill, I'm currently trying to capture some examples where the WSJT-X waterfall appears to become corrupt with multiple images of signals, along with multiple decodes - I see this fairly frequently when using FT8, and have also seen it very rarely with JT65, including on older versions of WSJT

There is a tutorial on power and grounding for ham radio in this link. Details of power distribution are specific to North America, but the same principles apply inside our homes and shacks are the same worldwide. http://k9yc.com/GroundingAndAudio.pdf The same concepts are covered in text for

Hi Bill, thanks for fast reply. I'm wondering why on JT65 I don't receive this spurious signals.. I have two ferrite clip onto the audio cables from the radio, but maybe I need to put also at rear of PC or elsewhere.
