Re: [wsjt-devel] Feature Request: TX Signal Feedback Image

Hi Edfel There really are only two ways to implement this: 1. in hardware - devise some way to split off a tiny portion of your TX signal from your antenna feed, feed it to a second rig (SDR?), second audio interface, and second instance of WSJT-X 2. like Barry suggests, by sending

Hi: I work most of the time (when is its time), the 6 meter band.. Other bands are 40 and 80m. 20m is relatively easy (IMO) to get QSO. 73' Edfel KP4AJ On Fri, Jun 29, 2018 at 9:33 AM, Barry Smith wrote: > In message mail.com> > Edfel Rivera wrote: > > > My own experience at my

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

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

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
