This message answers some questions I had about the ALL_WSPR.TXT file. Since I started using the WSPR mode of WSJTX the number of fields in a ALL_WSPR.TXT line has been increasing. Is there a plain text explanation (one that doesn't involve reading through the source code) of all the items ?

Hi Steve, I was not aware of the additional command line flags until your email and a chat from Jim. It does increase CPU utilization enough that a Pi can no longer perform two wsprd decodes on each of the 11 bands, so I have divided the bands across 2 Pis. In addition, I have modified my script

Jim, The number in question is the total Fano path metric for the returned codeword. When the last number is 1, that means that the Fano algorithm failed. In such cases, the path metric is just set to its maximum possible value, 810. Steve k9an > On Oct 28, 2018, at 11:31 AM, Jim Lill wrote:

Hi Rob - Are you using the same command-line arguments that WSJT-X uses when it calls the decoder? The “Deep” decode setting in WSJT-X v2.0.0-rc3 uses “-C 5000 -o 4”. Also, it is essential that the decoder in v2.0.0 have access to a well-populated hashtable.txt. Briefly, the enhanced

Hi Steve, Jim's question was stimulated by tests I have been running at KPH to compare the decode performance of the wsprd in 1.9.1 against the wsprd in 2.0rc3 My test setup is located at KPH where I have one KiwiSDR fed by a 3-30 Mhz TCI-530 and a second KiwiSDR fed from a Marconi T. I don't

What is the method to verify my system is indeed enjoying the 1 dB SNR improvement that 2.0 gives? Thanks Jim WA2ZKD ___ wsjt-devel mailing list wsjt-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/wsjt-devel
