Random callers below 1000 are ignored. Those who have already "engaged" the Fox are automatically moved below 1000 to finish the qso...that's how the software works. Of course, there are those who have no idea what they are doing, can't read and/or won't read, plus the deliberate qrm'ers...I saw

I was using a club call W8BAR and got this. It may help you debug or it may be my fault - I don't know. I got about 7 "RR73" messages. 73 Tom AA4VV -- Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's

Interesting I could not work them. Zero propagation in the east coast. Weak in the west. However Signals from W7/KH7Z were: - if only one signal (i.e. CQ), he was -21 to -18 - if 3-5 signals, all signals were between -12 to -08. Contrary to logic. Maybe, the close proximity to the

Hi All During the first test I saw many hounds sending R reports above 1000Hz. I could copy Fox solidly with max number of slots running. I did not hear Joe at all. Fox signal in the second hour was very weak for most of the time. It seemed then that most hounds were sending R reports below

Re: [wsjt-devel] Second Public Test of FT8 DXpedition Mode: April 7, 1400-1600 UTC

I heard W1/KH7Z from 140130 until 143630 when all his transmissions suddenly stopped. I called many times and eventually got a report at 143600 143600 -9 0.6 352 ~ OZ7AMG RR73; G4KLA -24 but never a follow up after transmissions stopped. Thereafter I heard no other FOX calling until

Re: [wsjt-devel] Second Public Test of FT8 DXpedition Mode: April 7, 1400-1600 UTC

For the second hour, I (CM87) was in the skip zone of the AZ fox (DM43), so the only time that I copied him (weakly) was when he called CQ on single frequency; nothing else hear, presumably due to power drop when using multi-freqs... perhaps the program should reduce power when using on

Afternoon Took part in 1st test - after 30 odd mins Fox found me, would rather the 2 min timeout was a little longer (4 mins or so - at least long enough to double check docs or look at Ping thingy on another screen) - Fox moved me to below 1000 as expected - back and forward, Red Watchdog

Re: [wsjt-devel] Second Public Test of FT8 DXpedition Mode: April 7, 1400-1600 UTC

Joe and the group: First, no propagation in northeast OH for the first test. Bummer. Second, maybe I’m confused (as usual): - I thought signals below 1000Hz are ignored? Many are. Some are not. - I thought the Hounds were expected to transmit above 1000Hz and the Fox would ignore below?

All those who use FT-847 or similar satellite ground station must not choose in Settings-->Radio because the radio switches into satellite mode. It well worth checking http://www.sk3bg.se/contest/ webpage to see what kind of contests are planned for a -say a test day. Today there is EA RTTY

Hi there I found the use of the "Ping Jockey Relief" chat page was a very good idea, and useful and working well! I was able to hear steadily the first fox W1/KH7Z. Gave him a series of call from 1402 Z (since the fox was late... never saw this case in real life - I share my sofa with 2

Re: [wsjt-devel] Second Public Test of FT8 DXpedition Mode: April 7, 1400-1600 UTC

W1/KH7Z and K1JT were consistently loud in IL, about +10. I called for the full hour trying different frequencies and power levels. No luck on a QSO. Most stations being worked seemed to be either west coast or Europe. W7/KH7Z was also loud. I worked him almost immediately with high power,

[wsjt-devel] Split occurring - Non DX Exp Mode

Morning Guys, Regarding testing Apr7th 1400-1600 from OZ I was able to some hound activity in the first 30min or so last night but not neither "KH7Z" stations. That said, this morning I've noticed that once I deactivated "hound" mode, so its now in normal FT8 mode and the setting for split was
