I don't have any direct contact information for any WSJT-x devs, aside from
Joe and I wrote to Joe twice about the following, but didn't hear back:
Looking at the changes in RC5 to send 15 instead of 16 for -900, I would
like to try and get to the following schema if possible for spot ingress,
otherwise we have a collision with WSPR-15.
"2" => 1, // WSPR-2
"15" => 2, // WSPR-15
"3" => 3, // FST4W -120
"5" => 4, // FST4W -300
"16" => 5, // FST4W -900
"30" => 8, // FST4W -1800
If this is too late, please let me know and I will change the code. We see
very little WSPR-15 so it's probably not terrible to mix these modes.
Please note, due to the size of the database, and the difficulties in
altering the schema given the 23x7 nature of this server, we are using an
unused small int field to store this data. WSJT-x is not bound by this
constraint and can send chars if desired. This would be for future changes,
obviously, since the last thing we want is to support two schemas.
One last request, we have changes planned for this year on WSPRNet to move
to a more resilient, elastic, scalable infrastructure and will be
undertaking at a rewrite of the spot ingress. It would be nice to have some
WSJT-x contacts to be able to keep in the loop as we proceed. For example,
I would like to look at a new spot upload format, for example, using a JSON
schema.
