Re: [wsjt-devel] 160m S/N needs advanced mode

Hi Glenn, Searching the User Guide for a keyword is often a helpful way to find a section of interest, but it's hardly a substitute for actually reading the Guide. The second and third paragraphs of the whole Guide introduce each of the supported protocols and provide a few words about what i

Re: [wsjt-devel] 160m S/N needs advanced mode

Thanks for the guidance. So I'll take the hit for overlooking FST4 and FST4W for the needed low S/N. I jumped to conclusions too quickly. I do that too often in life. This happened after operating FT8 since 2021. My oversight is due to the following reliance on a method of quickly scanning fo

Re: [wsjt-devel] 160m S/N needs advanced mode

Hi Glenn, FT4 and FT8 are a tiny fraction of what's available in WSJT-X. Modes that meet the needs you describe are already available in the program. Spend some time reading the WSJT-X User Guide. Pay particular attention to Section 17.2. Its Table 7 summarizes the threshold sensitivities

Re: [wsjt-devel] 160m S/N needs advanced mode

Hello Glenn, I think that you wish is already heard and fulfilled. The suitable mode is FST4. There are seven modes with transmission periods from 15 to 1800 seconds. The performance of the FST4-120 is about the same as for WSPR. For longer transmission periods transmitter frequency stability requi

A few days ago I worked a ZL stn with 80 watts to a 40ft vertical with just a few long radials. My report was -11 on FT8. >From time to time 160M propagation is amazing even during strong Sun Spot cycle times. Bill W2PKY Tampa Fl. ___ wsjt-devel mailing

Re: [wsjt-devel] 160m S/N needs advanced mode

Glenn the new mode you want has been out for quite awhile. FST4 is that mode. However 160M ops have been slow to adopt it. I guess because it’s not a set and forget mode like FT8 is. Fred N2XK > On Dec 7, 2023, at 2:28 PM, Glenn Williams via wsjt-devel > wrote: > > Hello, > > FT8 on 160m

Re: [wsjt-devel] 160m S/N needs advanced mode

Hi Glenn, You might like the FST4 QSO mode. Same operating procedure as FT8, but depending on cycle length it can decode below -30 dB. It is mostly used on 630m but I also had (transatlantic) contacts on 160m. https://wsjt.sourceforge.io/FST4_Quick_Start.pdf 73 Stefan On 07.12.23 16:46, Glenn

Keep in mind that 160 is dead right now due to the sun cycle.   160 is always dead during the day. Larry / W1DYJ On 12/7/2023 10:46, Glenn Williams via wsjt-devel wrote: Hello, FT8 on 160m pales. WSJT-X operators customarily running FT8 and FT4 on 80m through 10m HF bands are likely disap

Re: [wsjt-devel] 160m WSPR Performance is Impressive!

Hi Mark, If your using WSJT-X, the frequencies pre-set with defaults per mode. In my case below (WSPR), the dial frequency ( in USB ) is 1836.60. For JT65, 1838 is normally used; some also use 1840, both USB dial frequencies. I am not certain as to why both are used. Some are also testing QRA64 mo

Indeed, you have piqued my interest. I'm just outside of San Diego with a 36' vertical with a 40m loop as a tophat. Not using WSJT on 160 before, I'm finding multiple frequencies. The most frequent one is 1838. This correct? 73! Mark KA6WKE 4NEC2 The Definitive Guide
