Is the port you selected actually named "USB" ?  If so that's not a valid port

Have wsjtx set up for CAT control on an IC-7300. Some years back wsjtx was

Hi All,
I have encountered a problem running  2.7.0-rc4 with Hamlib version
 
This impacts an Icom IC-756ProII and IC-746. The issue is not observed when 
running a IC-9700
The problem is also observed running 2.7.0-rc3 with the new Hamlib version

The workaround is to roll back to the previous version of Hamlib

PROBLEM: 
CAT failure causes v2.7.0-rc4 to hang, requiring the process to be killed.



WSJT:



Hamlib:


Windows/PC:



Rigs impacted:

Icom IC-756ProII
Icom IC-746


PROBLEM DESCRIPTION

If CAT becomes disabled by turning the radio off or other problem that causes a 
disconnect, the WSJT CAT connection indicator remains green. It never 
transitions to amber or red.



The Rig Control Error pop-up message is not raised.



When CAT is restored by turning on the radio or resolving other errors, there 
is still no connection between the SW and the radio even though the indicator 
is still green.
WSJT-X v2.7.0-rc4 is then closed and relaunched. 

The pop-up indicating that another instance may be running is observed. 


Then it becomes necessary to go into Task Manager and kill the wsjt.exe process 
that is hung from the previous instance of the SW running.

Re: [wsjt-devel] Remote WSJT

2024-02-28 Thread Black Michael via wsjt-devel
Depend on what you are trying to seperate -- sounds like the GUI FFT processing 
is you concern perhaps the decoding too?
Here's the flow
RigAudio -> PC -> GUI (both fft and collect for decoder -> wav file -> decoder 
(e.g. JT9.EXE) -> GUI
And you are talking aboutRigAudio -> PicoITX -> GUIWhere PicoITX could do FFT 
display data and decoding.
Moving the decoder to a separate processor would be the easer step as JT9.EXE 
just processes a WAV file and returns the decodes.Moving the FFT processing in 
the GUI would be more complicated.

Sorry if this has already been discussed!
I am Rafael, PU1OWL, and I was thinking if it would be possible to detach the

make it a remote module
The architecture I envision is having a remote processor (e.g., some bulky 
raspberry pi, a PicoITX i9 board...) dealing with the mathematical heavy 
lifting while not having to put CPU into presenting its GUI. The GUI could be 
remote, on a PC or another raspberry pi, or something even lighter... Or maybe 
even  some audio sink board, forwarding to a hugely capable math processor, to 
a lightweight GUI...
I started studying the source code, but I cannot find somewhere to split the

With respect. I am not interested in yet another fork of Wsjtx.

Uwe is on the Wsjtx development team and I recall that he introduced

The mode selection buttons on the main window do not scale correctly the text

All other controls of the window scale correctly without any cropping of text. 
It is only the mode selection buttons at fault, none of the other controls are 
affected.

Adjusting (reducing) the font size is not the fix as that will make all other 
controls unreadable (too small).
In this image the font is set at 8pt so oversized font is not the problem.

Hi there, Nic G3YEG here.

I have been using wsjt for quite a few years both ft8 (hf, vhf and uhf) and 
q65-60b on 432 eme and have never consciously notice the power output of any of 
my previous rigs varying during ft8 or q65 tx cycles.

Recently I Started using a new laptop with much higher spec than old machine  
and also changed over to rc3. I then noted that the alc on my ic9700 had 
started spiking on the tx cycle. 

This seems to be completely random and does not appear to effect the decoding 
of my signal at all, hf, vhf ,uhf ft8 and even with my very low power q65 eme 
set up having had 3 recent eme qso’s and seen the spikes occur on tx. It also 
occurs on the ts2000 i use for hf.

I have investigated and it seems that the transmission does have “holes” in it 
when you actually listen to it.

It is not consistent as sometimes the tx cycle is completely clean and 
sometimes has a number of holes.

I have reverted back to 2.6.1 and that also exhibits the same problem but it 
does seem to be to a lesser extent. However Not done that many tests on 2.6.1

I always run with nil or very low alc on both my rigs so the recent spiking has 
been quite obvious. The tx power output on both the rigs doesn’t seem to dip 
that but the 9700 current drain certainly drops on the rig metering.

The old machine was a Lenovo running Windows 10 with an amd a10 and 12gb memory 
driving the 9700 via a single usb interface. The new machine is an intel i7 
running Windows 11 with 32Gb memory again driving the 9700 via a single usb 
interface. The ts2000 is driven from the new machine via a usb to rs232 dongle 
for cat control and a usb to analogue dongle for the audio interface. The icom 
Ic-9700 usb driver was in use on both old and new machines.

I mentioned this observation to another local eme operator who has also noted 
these “holes” but also observed that it doesn’t seem to cause any remote 
station decoding problems.

Be grateful if you could consider my observation and advise if there is a real 
problem.

Thank you, Nic

Assuming this is repeatable we now need to see FLRig debug data to see why mode

So Config/Setup/Trace and turn on all the checkboxes.  

Duplicate the problem.  Then find the trace.txt file in flrig.files and send it

Is there  a way to disable cat polling in wsjtx config ini file etc?

This is on a Catalina Macbook.

I have a FT-747GX that poll reads +08 tail to set frequency > red freq 
band shows OOB etc but sets fine,

basically the poll read frequency adds 08 to the tail of the number.

28.074 000  becomes 2,807.400 008 . The radio is showing correct 
frequency, so a program issue.

I have found others mention this before in wsjtx group archives.

Have tried a big range of wsjtx editions, and all the same result.

I can set poll to 99 s , but would like to disable. I could set rig = none,

but I have good cat control to set bands, and would like to retain that.

The issue prevents me working split,as the huge number with shift is

sent to the 747 which then displays err, game over. So I stay set over 
1500 hz on pan

Actually CW operators use apriori operation all the time.

When you're in a poor signal CW QSO with a dxepedition or such all you listen 
for is your call sign -- not theirs.  You assume (apriori) that they are the 
ones responding and you have a sequence you follow so you just continue.

the radios go into TX,  (ts-2000 and tx-480).  I knew I had them working before

So,
Once upon a time I asked a question and the gurus had an answer (V2.2.2 
I think).

My question was about "how does FT8 keep huge files open and still keep 
up with the band activity while updating huge files". Today's question 
is about that.  ALL.TXT has grown really large.  Is there a practical 
limit on how large it can grow before the data flow bogs down and causes 
errors during Decode time?

Hi Rich,

Last night I ran some tests with our good old standard WSJT-X (latest code) 
using three instances all connected via virtual audio.  One in FT8 Fox mode and 
the other two in FT8 Hound mode. Then I simulated just such QSO situations, but 
each time the reports appeared in the right-hand window of the two Hound 
stations. Not a single issue, even if I set the Rx frequency next to the Fox's 
audio signal. So, at the moment I can't reproduce this unwanted effect. 

Please note that the "231031" code of 2.7.1-devel has received several updates 
in the meantime. Test it again with the current "240106" code, or with the 
soon-to-be released "240202" code. With the latter I will repeat the same test 
from last night.

Hi, I think that the Fox simply ignores the ?R+rpt? part of the message and 
takes it to be a Tx1 message. So Fox sends a report. The Hound station autoseq 
may not work correctly as it has not sent the Tx1 at all. A resending of the 
?R+rpt? should be a correct message. The Hound station sends only Tx1 and Tx3 
in the protocol. Fox should not response by RR73, if it has not sent a Tx2 and 
received after that a R+rpt. No short-cuts allowed.

  

Well, it is another issue how to get operators to read user guides!

Hi Andy; can you please help me understand the circumstances better?  

  

Under ?normal? f/h operation, the hound calls with a grid. WSJT-X in fox mode 
can queue a caller with a grid. WSJT-X in fox mode doesn?t queue

If the ?fox? replied to a signal report message as the first call, perhaps the

For the most part all but one of your "no good" involve the Sound Blaster on an 
Input channel.
So two suggestions.
#1 Put a choke on the audio lines for all your sound lines into the Sound 
Blaster.  Possible RFI into the computer might be locking up the card.#2 
Replace the Sound Blaster with another ASUS.  I assume the driver for the Sound 
Blaster is really old.

I send attached files of the test result, input and output audio port of two

All combinations have test finished.

Please check the test result of the Excel sheet.

Sorry I don't know why but you are able to see Okay and No good results.

I expected all the test results to be No good, but that was not the case.

Sorry, but I don't understand why this is happening.

Will this result help the development team?

  

I installed just Windows 10 64bit OS and two sound card drivers and two JT65 of 
WSJT-X in advance so I was testing it with the simple PC.

And then I checked all combinations.

I am combination test with the two audio sound cards.

Two inputs and two outputs, total 16 types.

And each test number is a maximum 5 times for tx V and tx H.

Problems might occur if you test more than that number of times.

Unfortunately, the test results did not work with the port I use setting.

I hope you can solve in my trouble it with software.

The test environment of my PC is still in place.

Please contact me if there is anything I can do to help.

When it freezes check Task Manager and see if the jt9.exe process is using any

We need to know if the jt9.exe process is stuck or the user interface is just

There is a checkbox you need to turn off in the Windows Sound Control Panel.
You can go direct to this control panel by typing "mmsys.cpl" in the search bar 
in Windows.

Right-click your audio device (do this for both Playback and Record).  
Select Properties

And I have 2 icons and I have 2 folders under AppData Local of two FT8 for H

So I have their 8 folders under AppData Local, are those folders causing 
trouble?
And I use the output all of the audio port are the same port as H and V-pol for 
each WSJT and JTDX.
This is because I just use one side of TX which both IC-746pro.
Of course, I use it the same as WSJT-X and JTDX.
Is it okay to use the output audio port of the only one port to all of the

Hi Taka, Larry, and allI would really like to help you, but the error simply 
does not occur on my PC. I have run numerous tests with two instances this 
morning. Both with WSJT-X v2.6.1 and v2.7.0-rc3 and with wsjt-x_improved 
v2.7.1-devel. I tested various settings (EME delay on/off, with FT-991 CAT 
control vs without (i.e. CAT = None), real transmission via antenna vs virtual 
audio, and so on). Result: There was not a single case where this error 
occurred. It always worked perfectly with JT65B, and with the other modes. The 
decode button did not get stuck, and I was also able to decode my own 
transmissions from the first instance with the second one without any problems 
when using my virtual audio cable. (Due to time constraints, I only tested the 
latter for my 2.7.1-devel version).Very important: The error that the second 
instance hangs after you have transmitted with the first one (visible by the 
fact that the Decode button remains cyan) always occurs if not both instances 
were started with the " --rig-name=InstanceNameXYZ" parameter but only the 
second one. In this case, the "zeroth" instance (that without the " 
--rig-name..." parameter) shoots down all the others. So please make sure once 
again that this is not the case. Perhaps caused by a spelling mistake (" 
-rig-name..." instead of " --rig-name..." or something like that).

Your time looks off by quite a bit.  Is your waterfall still working and just 
not decoding?

Check here http://time.is

And you can use Meinberg NTP to keep your time in sync.

Just be careful when installing.  Easy to miss the configuration setup right 
after it shows the installation files scrolling by.

Here's a video showing how to install it...

Exclude all of your ham software folders and data locations.
The antivirus programs are interfering with all sorts of ham stuff including 
logging QSOs.  I helped one of the DXpeditions a couple years ago when they 
were losing QSOs in the log due to antivirus scanning of the log file for 
example.


For Windows Defender: 
https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/4028485/windows-10-add-an-exclusion-to-windows-security


For example I exclude all of these
c:\Program Files (x86)\HamApps
c:\ProgramData\HamApps
c:\WSJT
%LOCALAPPDATA%\WSJT-X (and any other WSJT-X directories for alternate 
configurations)
%LOCALAPPDATA%\HamApps
%HOMEPATH%\flrig.files
%HOMEPATH%\fldigi.files


Also exclude your logging program and it's data files too and database 
location.  I use Log4OMV2 for example
For Log4OM2 I also have
%HOMEPATH%\AppData\Roaming\LogOMV2

In each case, pushing the Update Hamilb produced the error "Error Loading

Attempting a second update greyed out both the Update and Revert button so

Re: [wsjt-devel] callsigns in <>

That's correct -- you cannot do two compound calls like that.  It's a known 
limitation of the message format.
There is an option for "full call in..." options but they don't seem to 
honored.  I'm still seeing full call transmitted in all messages.

Would be more than nice if WSJT-X could call ft8code internally and show what 
is actually going to get transmitted.

is a matter of too many characters.  The called station had nothing to

A solution would appear to be to change so that the angle brackets 
replace the spaces instead of being added to them, i.e. 
WB0GAGR+11, where the angle brackets would do double duty.

I take it you are running two receivers?   Seems to me a software solution is 
possible.

Do we need to do any more than just average the two?  In your example doesn't 
look like time delays are needed for steering.

Having used diversity reception techniques as
far back as the 70s and knowing it was used in
the 40s to improve RTTY reception for mil comms,
that improvement is possible.

An early technique used 2 coherent R-390As and 
dual fsk demod unit.  The antennas were often
of different polarization because they knew
the fading was often due ordinary and
extraordinary propagation though the ionosphere
producing changes in polarization.
But, sometimes just two horizonal antennas far
enough apart offer improvements, for example.
Diversity reception made RTTY via the HF
ionosphere very reliable in the 40s.

Present day wifi benefits from direct sequence
spread spectrum but also mimo.

Knowing the present code in wsjt does not offer
hooks for diversity, but I asked Joe once did it
ever or was it once considered?

There are now two eme antennas at dvra.

decodes when i got back, but only a few. 

Installed WSJT-X 2.6.1 and tried again. 

Same behavior. 

  

Every once in a awhile it would decode a 
frame and then none for long periods of 
time even though the spectrum graph showed 
signals on the waterfall continuously. 

  

Switched to an old dell i3 win10 laptop 
and saw the same behavior with wsjt-x. 

Tried fldigi and it decoded Olivia and 
psk31 as well as cw no problem. 

  

Tried JS8 as well - no problem. 

  

Back to WSJT-X and double checked the 
settings. Every once in a long while 
it might decode what looks like a frame.

Re: [wsjt-devel] WSJT-X WSPR decoder uploads spur decode instead of main decode for strong signals

2023-12-01 Thread Black Michael via wsjt-devel
Actually the strongest is not indicative at all of current conditions.  You can 
have momentary band conditions either way.

What matters is what signal you heard them at.  e.g. "I initially received you 
at XXdB".  If a user wants to see band conditions for their callsign they can 
use PSKReporter or HamSpots.net.
One signal report doesn't tell you much.

And does anybody even look at that data anyways?

Well, OK, Joe wrote the program, so he really is the ultimate authority.

But the “decoded a spur and used that number for the SNR” seems to be the real 
issue here.

In an ideal world, signals for a particular call should be sorted _after_ all 
the decodes are done, and the strongest (very probably not the spur) should be 
used.

However, if the program flow is “Decode at a random spot on the waterfall, 
queue the results to upload to PSKreporter, set as number to report to QSO 
partner”, and then another one comes along, you have to do all these gyrations 
to determine if it’s ‘better’ and replace it, and unqueue from PSKreporter and 
all this messy stuff.

Re: [wsjt-devel] CQ Hound mode

2023-11-06 Thread Black Michael via wsjt-devel
The one thing I have noticed on every dxpedition I've worked over the last year 
so
WSJTX Fox mode bill on an 300Hz offset for channel 1.MSHV will normally be 
above  500Hz.
You'll also see MSHV work people calling below 1000Hz.
I can always tell the difference.
And you don't really need Hound mode -- just be prepared to stop the last 73 
tranmission (it's definitely not needed for dxpeditions and just causes QRM).

In addition should that specific CQ type extended to cover other situations

Just a minor point, I assume. If that is programmed into wsjt-x, then the 
change will not be backwards compatible. The CQ part of the message is actually 
a specific pretty long bit string (28 bits, ‘c28’). There could be another bit 
string for the CQF, but none of the current versions would present it as the 
CQF and the protocol machine would not work. If you feel a need to study it

But why?  He should only be hound if he is on his published frequency (which 
you can determine yourself), and he should never be in hound mode if he is in 
the normal FT frequency segment.

Re: [wsjt-devel] No 73 allowed after RR73?

It's not a waste of time
Here's why (especially on weak signals or when the band is flaky or QRM).
.start of QSOW9MDB W0YK R-13W0YK W9MDB RR73 -- band goes flaky but I'm 
supposed to think the QSO is done...but you don't decode the RR73.W9MDB W0YK 
R-13 -- you repeat because you didn't get the  RR73 but since our path is flaky 
I don't get this R-13 so I still think I'm done.W9MDB W0YK R-13 -- you repeat 
again -- I still don't receive  youad nauseum until you give up.
I logged you because I sent RR73 and got no other message from you.  You didn't 
log me as you never received RR73.If had sent RRR instead I would repeat 73 
until I got your 73.
That's why it says only use RR73 on a strong signal that you don't expect to 
have any problems with.

RR73 was received.
I'll need to be careful to ensure TX5 is set correctly when in QSO.

Also, MAP65 runs with selected mode Q65A and JT65B.

I got some more info from the HamSCI group.  So if you could maintain one band 
for the duration of the  SEQP that would be best.
>From W2NAF
The SEQP is going to run for 10 hours from 1200-2200 UTC. See 
https://hamsci.org/seqp-rules
 

What we actually analyze will depend on the quality of the data we receive. We 
will likely be building off of the analysis published in 
https://doi.org/10.1029/2018GL077324, which focused on 1.8, 3.5, 7, and 14 MHz. 
We are also now at a higher point in the solar cycle, so hopefully the higher 
bands will also be useful.

Hi Jim and all,
 
 I support this proposal. I know that on the rig's point of view the
 functionality is the same as in the classical "split". What is seen on the
 band may or may not be the same depending how the user selects the
 transmission frequency.
 
 In addition some words could be added to note that the activation of the
 'Hold Tx Freq' and selecting a 'free' spot on the waterfall is the same
 working principle as the classical "split". In FT8 case the transmission
 frequency (red mark) is selected outside (not only upper side) the reception
 frequency (green mark). The waterfall is a bandscope and decoder is a
 build-in FT8 skimmer.

Re: [wsjt-devel] Split

2023-09-05 Thread Black Michael via wsjt-devel
No -- the target is not good quality of signals -- that's misleading 
tooit's all about shifting the audio (actually shifting the suppressed 
carrier).
#1 Avoid transmit band edges (rigs can actually transmit outside of their 
bandpass)#2 Avoid harmonics#3 Avoid non-linear power behavior (some rigs don't 
transmit the same power on all frequencies)
This thing has historically been brought up every few years and nobody has  
come up with better terminology.I will propose this.
Box title -- "Audio shift method" in lieu of "Split Operation".Then we leave 
the others alone but update the tool tips to use "audio shift" in their 
description instead  of "split".None/Rig/Fake It
No mention of split needed except in the manual describing what this does in 
detail.

 Hi Jim
I agree - it is a very frustrating situation, especially for foreign users with 
English language problems.
The target is the good quality of signals. So the title:"Split Operation" is 
bad. Split operation is one of the ways to get it."None" is OK."Rig" is not OK, 
it should be "Rig SPLIT"."Fake It" is not OK, it should be "Like Split" or 
"Kind Of Split" or "Special Split" or "WSJT Shift".
     I mean "SPLIT" - the button and "Split" - the word.

My proposal title and others is:


Signal Quality Special Management
O  None                          O  Rig SPLIT                        O  WSJT

Hi Jim and all,

I support this proposal. I know that on the rig's point of view the
functionality is the same as in the classical "split". What is seen on the
band may or may not be the same depending how the user selects the
transmission frequency.

In addition some words could be added to note that the activation of the
'Hold Tx Freq' and selecting a 'free' spot on the waterfall is the same
working principle as the classical "split". In FT8 case the transmission
frequency (red mark) is selected outside (not only upper side) the reception
frequency (green mark). The waterfall is a bandscope and decoder is a
build-in FT8 skimmer.

You have to reposition the windows once.  You can't switch back and forth.
Also try setting that value to 1 instead of 0 and see what difference it makes.

Shut down WSJTX.

Rename C:\Users\[username]\AppData\Local\WSJT-X\WSJT-X.ini

Then start WSJTX again -- it will be new config.  

See if that fixed the problem.  If it does please send in the old WSJT-X.ini

Re: [wsjt-devel] Bug Report WSJT-X 2.7.0-RC2: Rig Control Error pops up when adjusting TX slot frequency

2023-08-28 Thread Black Michael via wsjt-devel
New hamlib for installation directions

#1 Shut down WSJTX

#2 Download either the 32-bit or 64-bit DLL matching the 32/64-bit version of 
WSJTX -- hopefully your browser doesn't block it but may warn you multiple 
times.

If you can do a "Save As" you can save it directly in the appropriate WSJTX 
directory
C:\WSJT\WSJTX\bin and replace the libhamlib-4.dll that is there.

http://n0nb.users.sourceforge.net/dll32/libhamlib-4.dll

http://n0nb.users.sourceforge.net/dll64/libhamlib-4.dll

Linux/Unix/Mac users need to compile the latest tar file from 
http://n0nb.users.sourceforge.net
Note: If compiling on Unix-like systems please uninstall any Hamlib package you 
have before installing the new build

#3 If you don't save directly you need to open a file browser and move the file 
that way.

If you're not familiar with that here's a video on the file browser - 
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AyVqCJrs9dk

Once installed on Linux do "ldconfig".

rigctl --version should then show a relatively recent date of the download


Then if you still have the problem...
Please place this file as described below
https://www.dropbox.com/s/t52ngcalsgnpm8m/wsjtx_log_config.ini?dl=0

C:\Users\[username]\AppData\Local\WSJT-X
The WSJT-X_Rigcontrol.log file will be in the same location

For Linux put it in  
~/.config
The WSJT-X_Rigcontrol.log file will be here:
~/.local/share/WSJT-X

For MacOS put it in
/Users/[username]/Library/Preferences
 
Restart WSJT-X and duplicate the problem.
Shut down WSJT-X

Then send me the WSJT-X_RigControl.log file

This error has not occurred using WSJT-X 2.6.1.  My configuration is as follows:

Radio: Yaesu FT-710

Software stack:

 
* Win4YaesuSuite (latest version)
 
* Software control of the radio.  Also provides virtual COM ports 
(using com0com) to allow additional software to access the CAT control stream.
* CAT connection to radio on COM3.  Provides CAT virtual CAT 
connections on COM7, COM9, COM11, COM13, and COM15.
* 3rd party software connections are mentioned below.  COM13 and COM15 
connections are used for unrelated programs not involved in FT8/FT4 operation.

* DXLabs Suite (latest version)
 
* Has additional software control features for the radio but lacked the 
virtual COM support.  Control program needed to support additional functions of 
the suite.
* Used for general logging and other functions.
* Connects to CAT interface on COM9

* N1MM+ (latest version)
 
* Used for contest logging.
* Connects to CAT interface on COM11

* WSJT-X
 
* Normally use 2.6.1.  Downloaded 2.7.0-RC2 to check out some of the 
new features.
* Connects to CAT interface on COM7

* JTAlert for WSJT-X (latest version)
 
* Better visual representation of decodes.


 

The DXLabs and N1MM+ portions of the stack are not involved in this error as 
they are not in the stack between WSJT-X and the radio.  They are shown for 
completeness. 

 

Please let me know if you have any questions or need more information to help 
track this down.  For now I have reverted back to v2.6.1 so I can continue 
working FT8/FT4.

I can duplicate the behavior here with my Apache 7000 and Thetis.
Using RC2 here.

Both the Tune button and Enable Tx follow the 500hz offsets.

Both Fake It and Rig Split behave this way.

Split=None works correctly.

https://icecreamapps.com/v/fkkg3dt

Either right-clicking into the wide graph and setting the offset - which should 
not work since it should be fixed to 1500- or by previously being in Q65 with 
an offset will cause this. 

It follows the pattern of @0-500 offset will subtract 1500Hz, @501-1000 will 
subtract 1000Hz, @1001-1500 will subtract 500Hz and so on until +1500Hz

I think this feature is used to keep the tones in the middle of the TX 
passband, but it also requires a frequency shift of the generated tone which 
does not happen because it's set to a fixed 1500Hz. 

In short, yes, there should not be a frequency shift on TX in the first place 
and that is a bug IMHO.

I enabled logging for the rig transactions and the radio is indeed commanded to 
go to the wrong offset on VFO B it should be 144065000.
 
          rig_set_split_freq called vfo=VFOB, curr_vfo=VFOA, tx_freq=144064000 

It works fine when I right click on 1500Hz in the wide graphs or when 1500 was 
selected in the previous mode.

To correct it, I need to switch the frequency bands selector of WSJTX back to

Re: [wsjt-devel] High CPU load with 2.7.0-rc2

2023-07-12 Thread Black Michael via wsjt-devel
This is a problem on Windows with the async routine enabled.   With async 
enabled Windows uses 100% of 1 core.  Async disabled runs at 1.6% of 1 core.  
It really should be closer to zero than the 1.6% but Windows has a problem with 
timing.

Linux doesn't have this problem.

I'm working on a solution for Windows.

Re: [wsjt-devel] High CPU load with 2.7.0-rc2

2023-07-11 Thread Black Michael via wsjt-devel
We do post a libhamlib-X.dll file but not a .so file for Linux or one for Mac.

The directions are here but are missing doing an "ldconfig" on Linux when put 
in the new .so file.


New hamlib for installation directions

#1 Shut down WSJTX

#2 Download either the 32-bit or 64-bit DLL matching the 32/64-bit version of 
WSJTX -- hopefully your browser doesn't block it but may warn you multiple 
times.

If you can do a "Save As" you can save it directly in the appropriate WSJTX 
directory
C:\WSJT\WSJTX\bin and replace the libhamlib-4.dll that is there.

http://n0nb.users.sourceforge.net/dll32/libhamlib-4.dll

http://n0nb.users.sourceforge.net/dll64/libhamlib-4.dll

Linux/Unix/Mac users need to compile the latest tar file from 
http://n0nb.users.sourceforge.net
Note: If compiling on Unix-like systems please uninstall any Hamlib package you 
have before installing the new build

#3 If you don't save directly you need to open a file browser and move the file 
that way.

If you're not familiar with that here's a video on the file browser - 
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AyVqCJrs9dk

Once installed on Linux do "ldconfig".

rigctl --version should then show a relatively recent date of the download

Should we have in the rc version a button for a new hamlib file download

And it turns out that this is down to a change in hamlib-4.6~git, so
not WSJTX at all.

Yes it is always possible to modify things to do what you want.
For example when you compile Hamlib using JTSDKTools you get the most current 
hamlib by default unless you give it an -ng switch to NOT get the current 
version.

 Hello,
 
 Are there any oddities in my thoughts regarding Hamlib release included into 
the WSJT-X source archive, which I suppose is not the latter available.
 
 It could be possible to modify the installer wsjt-x compiler script, in order 
to use always the latest Hamlib release from Github, instead to rely on a 
static ( at least I suppose it being so) hamlib release?
 
 Sorry if my thoughts are nonsense.

Re: [wsjt-devel] Need Hamlib Testers for IC7300 and IC7600

2023-06-29 Thread Black Michael via wsjt-devel
The 7610/7600 will behave better (if it's the latest firmware) with the more 
current version of  Hamlib than Uwe said he was going to use.
Icom decided to add the 0x25 0x26 command but did it differently than all other 
Icoms (actually they did it the  "right" for the 76xx IMHO).

Re: [wsjt-devel] Log file for changes in settings?

2023-06-14 Thread Black Michael via wsjt-devel
I would recommend that WSJT-X save a dated copy of the file during the closing 
of the  Settings dialog where it checks for changes.So...if something changed 
save  the current config with MMDDHHMMSS which would end up showing when 
the change took place

 Hi,
I am aware of what wsjt-x.ini looks like.  My point was to have a log 
file in plain words that accumulates each change in any of the settings 
so that later on if something is acting up one could look at that file 
to see what changes in settings might be causing a problem. That would 
be as opposed to looking for RFI-induced problems, etc.  One could try
manually to keep versions of wsjt-x.ini and "diff" for what the most 
recent changes have been but the format of wsjt-x.ini does not lend 
itself to obtaining useful results from diff.

And, I was not talking about trying to induce changes by manually 
editing wsjt-x.ini and restarting WSJT-X.

Testing IC-7300/IC-705, IC-7610 Results

Mike, on the IC-7610 so far the new libhamlib-4.dll seems to work.

On the IC-705 and the IC-7300 however:


The WSJT-X program crashes if I start either radio from 7.074 MHz or higher and 
THEN change the band setting drop down to 80m e.g., 3.573 MHz or lower and do a 
TUNE transmit. It works OK at on 7.074 MHz and above frequencies but when I 
then drop to 3.573 MHz or the 1.840 MHz band and TUNE for Transmit it will 
crash and I have to then restart the program which then immediately crashes and 
a second restart operates correctly works unless I repeat the sequence I state 
above.

I should note that in both radio test cases, they are being operated from 
different computers, in fact all radios have their own computers.

I will be out most of the morning to church but back in the afternoon CDST.

Re: [wsjt-devel] Tx frequency display bug in V2.7.0-rc1

2023-06-09 Thread Black Michael via wsjt-devel
Two things to do -- try the latest hamlib and if that doesn't solve the problem 
I need some debug.
ew hamlib for installation directions

#1 Shut down WSJTX

#2 Download either the 32-bit or 64-bit DLL matching the 32/64-bit version of 
WSJTX -- hopefully your browser doesn't block it but may warn you multiple 
times.

If you can do a "Save As" you can save it directly in the appropriate WSJTX 
directory
C:\WSJT\WSJTX\bin and replace the libhamlib-4.dll that is there.

http://n0nb.users.sourceforge.net/dll32/libhamlib-4.dll

http://n0nb.users.sourceforge.net/dll64/libhamlib-4.dll

Linux/Unix/Mac users need to compile the latest tar file from 
http://n0nb.users.sourceforge.net
Note: If compiling on Unix-like systems please uninstall any Hamlib package you 
have before installing the new build

#3 If you don't save directly you need to open a file browser and move the file 
that way.


If you're not familiar with that here's a video on the file browser -

if I open WSJT-X, transmit on several (two? three? or more) different bands in 
succession, eventually this will happen:
 
Just over two seconds into the transmission on the latest band, the frequency 
display in the main WSJT-X window changes from the correct transmit frequency 
on the latest band to a frequency used on one of the earlier bands.  (For 
example, if transmitting on 28.074 MHz, after two seconds the displayed 
frequency may change to 3.573 MHz.)  At the end of the transmission, the 
display changes from the incorrect transmit frequency back to the correct 
receive frequency.  Once it starts, it will do this consistently on every 
transmit cycle on the latest band.  The problem is not band-specific; it’s 
happened on most HF bands.
 
The band-selector pull-down follows the frequency display; that is, it is 
correct at the beginning of the Tx cycle, changes to the same (incorrect) band 
as the frequency display after two seconds, then changes back to the correct 
band at the end of the Tx cycle.
 
As an experiment, I tried transmitting with zero RF output and the problem 
still occurs, so it doesn’t seem to be an RF-related issue.
 
The actual rig transmit frequency remains on the correct frequency (on the 
latest band) throughout; the rig VCOs do not change bands.  QSOs seem to be 
unaffected.  The usual df-driven Tx frequency offsets occur normally.

Re: [wsjt-devel] spots to WSPRnet stop from a RaspPi

You would run tcpdump on the PI.  You cannot watch one computer's network 
traffic from another computer using wireshark.   Everybody uses a switch now 
and the cheap switches do not have a monitoring capability (sometimes referred 
to as an aggregation port).  You can only see your own traffic.

Re: [wsjt-devel] Memory leak in 2.7.0 rc1?

2023-05-26 Thread Black Michael via wsjt-devel
Turns out Task Manager shows different memory usage then the System Informer I 
use and also Process Explorer.

System Informer says 444MB but Task Manager says 44MB on a clean config (no rig 
selected or anything done).

Process Explorer shows 450MB.

So I don't believe Task Manager is correct at all.

In any case there's no memory leak -- just inaccurate memory reporting.

We checked with our zoom group, we are all running WSJT-X 2.7.0 RC1 Improved 
Plus by Uwe:

KB7IJ, K5GZR, NM3G, W8LMG, WB4HIE and I all reported approximately 125 MB 
initially and 125 MB after two hours of MSK144 and Q65 operation. One station, 
ND0B was reporting approx. 600 MB upon startup  ...but he attributes that to a

So, 125 MB appears to be the baseline for most of us (no matter what mode), 
with one outlier, ND0B.

2023-05-25 Thread Black Michael via wsjt-devel
I don't see a memory leak -- but do see a large chunk of memory being 
used...over 400MB by both 32-bit and 64-bit Windows versions.  Others have 
mentioned this too.
330MB of that is the main wsjtx.exe program and not the DLLs.

I was able to compile a debug version and put a break point in main() and the 
memory was already in-use at the 1st line of main.

I've got an AMD Ryzen 9 5950X if that makes any difference.

normally in FC37 and wsjtx-2.6.1.

"Test CAT" does not turn green, but WSPR band-hopping works.  Changing 
frequency at the radio results in changing frequency in the WSJT-X window.  So 
there is serial communication

"Test PTT" works.  So there is serial communication..

"Enable TX" button is reset (unset) on each band hopping band change, whether 
or not "tune" is selected in the WSPR band-hopping schedule.

"Enable TX" followed by "Tune" transmits as expected, but the second press of 
"Tune" to stop tuning turns off both "Tune" and "Enable Tx" buttons.

Output of rigctl seems pretty normal with the same serial parameters.

The WSJT-X_Rigcontrol.log file will be in the same location

For Linux put it in  
~/.config
The WSJT-X_Rigcontrol.log file will be here:

Restart WSJT-X and duplicate the problem.
Shut down WSJT-X

7610 follows band changes from WSJT-, but no TX

In Settings - Test CAT , turns  Green and Test PTT turns red, but no keying of

You have to decode them once when they do NOT get their callsign in brackets.  
A lot of people like to skip TX1 which causes this problem.

Re: [wsjt-devel] Candidate Release WSJT-X 2.7.0-rc1

2023-05-15 Thread Black Michael via wsjt-devel
BTW -- The community would appreciate everybody turning on PSKReporter.  We 
have put changes in WSJT-X to support the HamSCI community doing analysis on 
solar eclipses where the spotting will increase +/- 6 hours around a solar 
eclipse event.

By default WSJT-X removes duplicate spots now before sending to PSKReporter to 
try and reduce the load on PSKReporter.  During solar eclipses all spots will 
be sent...duplicate or not.

The next solar eclipse will be 2023-10-14 18:00:40.   We have some testing 
dates so PSKReporter can see the effect of all the spots coming on starting 
today at 12:00 and the 1st/15th of month until Sep 1st.

Re: [wsjt-devel] Hamlib Beta Testing Group needed

2023-05-13 Thread Black Michael via wsjt-devel
I have been writing simulators but they do not have the nuances that the rigs 
do.  There's all sorts of oddities.

Butthe plan is to eventually incorporate those simulators in the "make 
test" in Hamlib that should catch big mistakes.

It's on my to-do list but don't hold your breath...it's a low priority.

Hey Uwe

While manual testing could probably never be eliminated in the case of hamlib, 
has there been any consideration of creating test harnesses to remove/reduce 
the need for manual testing?

It strikes me that there could be potential to capture test cases from manual 
testing with real rigs, then at least there would be regression tests. Future 
bug fixes could have test cases added to prevent further regression, again 
without requiring physical radios and manual testing.

Apologies if I am not the first to ask this question.

Kind regards

Hi Mike,

Thanks for the link.

Well, I placed the dll file in this directory C:\WSJT\wsjtx\bin, and 
rebooted the computer, but I am still getting the error.

So, then I tried re-installing 2.7.0-rc1, and rebooting the computer 
again, I still have the error.

Sorry.

And ya'll are confusing the purpose of split with the rig split function.
We have 3 choices
#1 Fake It#2 Rig#3 None
The all refer to split -- not to any reason for using it.  You are trying to 
put the reason as the title.

No need to remove rig split or fake split, because that is what is activated

I don't see what the problem is.
When you click "Rig" your rig goes into Split mode -- why would want to confuse 
people now with asking "why does my rig go into split mode when I click Rig in 
audio optimization".
Fake It is running split on just one VFO.
What we're missing in WSJT-X is the ability to get "Help" on items easily and 
we frequently have to explain to people how to find stuff in the 
manual.https://doc.qt.io/qt-6/qthelp-framework.html

Re: [wsjt-devel] Fwd: Enhancement suggestion - 30 second cycles

2023-05-08 Thread Black Michael via wsjt-devel
Much the same as a rig from 50 years ago looks nothing like today -- including 
the fact that old rigs had no "split" capability at all and you had to use a 
2nd transceiver to accomplish the same thing.Then they added a split button and 
operators said "what can I do with this?".  And CW split working a DXpedition 
or such was born.Then software came along and operators said "what can I do 
with this?".  And WSJT-X rig split was born.And then operators said "Rig split 
doesn't work on my rig with WSJT-X".  And WSJT-X Fake It was born.
Let's just agree that things change over time and we need to revisit our 
burned-in-the-brain definitions of things.
This hobby is all about learning so let's learn something newand it's not 
that new since WSJT-X has been out for a very long time.
I do realize that many don't understand the nuances of the different modes -- 
much as I've had to help educate many just about bandwidth alone and have found 
trying to educate some about the 1500-2000Hz behavior can take some 
considerable effort for it to sink in.
