Gary,
One possibility to check what they might have answered is running two instances
of WSJT-X in parallel, one v2.0.0 and one v1.9.1. I am doing that and saw that
a number of others seems to do it as well. Can be helpful, as there are
currently lots of 75 bit messages above 2 KHz as well as
Maybe it would help if there was a setting to keep the contest window
sorted by callsign. This might not help as much once that list gets very
large, but I think it would help the casual contester. (This is a
suggestion for a future release, not 2.0)

A new group has been formed where we can discuss RTTY and/or FT8 or any other
form of digital DXing or contesting. This should help lighten the load on the
RTTY, WSJT, and WSJT Software Development groups.

Hi Wolfgang.
I'm aiming my messages at the users of previous RCs who can copy my 77 bit
messages but are routinely transmitting 75 bit messages ... because that's
where ~95% of the action is right now.
All I see from them is undecodable blobs on the waterfall but hopefully they

Bill, thanks for your reply. I understand UI design is a hard problem and
I'm glad you're on it. It sure seems that WSJT-X has a solid technical core
to build around, which is a good thing.

Helpful to whom, Uwe? When I'm hoping for 77 bit QSOs, I don't see much
purpose in coding and sending or receiving and decoding 75 bit messages.

time since they both want to grab the sound card and radio, and

became hard to remember who I'd worked and therefore difficult to see an

Contesters tend to make the QSO and log the dupe since it takes less time than
to inform someone they are a dupe and they may have broken your call when they
logged the previous QSO which is probably why they do not know they are a dupe.
In FT8 though, what are the chances of a broken call

I had to go into Preferences->Colors and enable color

I have noticed a lot of activity on 30 & 60M. In fact 60M has a lot of
activity. However, these are evening bands.
17M is very active during the day and 15M has a fair amount of activity as
well.

Hello Chuck,
this is possibly a result of different MUF in those areas.

There were a few times I wasn't watching JT-Alert where I started a
reply, then caught it a few seconds in and stopped. I think it may
be written off to there weren't that many stations and anything that

This looks very similar to what I'm seeing here in Dallas, Texas. I see
many people receiving my signal in NA and EU, but I'm not decoding much. I
think there are a lot of unattended stations sending reports to the PSK

Aside from contesting, sorting the block of ‘band activity’ pane decodes within

Steve,
you didn't give what Windows version you're using.
I loaded it on Win8.1 with the defaults, and had no issues. Evidently
the installer adds a system path variable or the like, as I didn't

I am very thankful and appreciative to the administrators of Winter Field Day

Even before the publicity of the DecemberQST article, this event has been
