Folks,
I can vouch for the usefulness of RRR on FT8 in certain situations, such as
running QRP 5 Watts. I often found, as a QRP station, that I needed to run with
RRR as my default TX4 message to ensure the other end heard my reply and
confirm a contact, otherwise they may miss the RR73 and
>From the WSJT-X User guide:
Section 7.1 : Standard messages -" The RR73 message should be used only if you
are reasonably confident that no repetitions will be required."
Section 7.4 : Contest messages -"Always log a QSO when you have received RRR,
RR73, or 73 from a station you are working."
I actually see RRR fairly often. In many cases I think it is newbies who have
not read the manual.
The thing that puzzles me a bit is that occasionally I will work an op who
sends RR73 and then after my 73 he also sends a 73. At that point it starts to
feel a little like a Alphonse and
It's not a waste of time
Here's why (especially on weak signals or when the band is flaky or QRM).

Hi Reino,
Not to beat the issue to death but this does not always work. A strong signal
may dissipate.

NJ. I worked several FT8 stations. Signals were strong, but the band just
dropped out, suddenly. I

Keijo, which bands you have used? Perhaps HF and
Agree 100%. The number of ops who refuse to be control operators and just log and move on because, “the software didn’t tell me the QSO is complete” is staggering.On Oct 22, 2023, at 1:06 AM, Ed W0YK via wsjt-devel wrote:+173,Ed W0YK Original message From: Ron WV4P via wsjt-devel

Last two months I have had about 5000 FT8/FT4 QSOs. I have received just one
