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

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

Joe, FYI, this isn't an isolated incident. Several hams, from NA, SA, VK and ZL, working to exploit the December-January openings between the Americas and VK/ZL have tried moving from FT8 to Q65-30A, only to have the same non-decode problem appear. (I am one of them. For the record,

If a channelized scheme is introduced to avoid recurrent channel collisions, care should be taken not to reduce the network throughput. As anyone who has visited 14.074 lately can attest, for much of the day there is more channel demand than channel availability -- and other bands are frequently

Reino is correct – in the example I experienced (reported in the archives at https://sourceforge.net/p/wsjt/mailman/message/37321504/ ) the JAs were not calling in NA contest mode, either. Since the received signal reports were displayed correctly in the WSJT-X Rx Frequency window (and
