A 'separate small group' wasn't exactly my proposal, Take: I simply suggested that rather than simply assuming or asserting that there is an issue with overcrowding and pushing for something to be done, we should take a more scientific approach. What would help address the claim (hypothesis)

If there are strong signals, those close ALC and weak signals have no chance then. If there is only one, I can use notch on my FT950 and it helps a bit. But in many cases there is more than one over +10dB, so it's difficult to catch some DX sometimes. In some cases is possible turn the main

All in all: It's evident that some stations are using kW and directional antennas in FT8! FT8 is NOT A QRP MODE ANY LONGER! JT9 was the last one which favoured QRP stations and wire antennas. Beside this, there is a tendency of using high power in certain stations mainly in Southern Europe! GL de

Hi Saku, Your logger knows a lot about the callsigns it displays. Once my changes are merged, cqrlog will be able to share some of this knowledge with WSJT-X so that the operator can see your colors directly in the Band Activity panel. You can use my TWsjtxListener class if you want, I hope it

OK Gary, You've got the job. :-) When will the report be ready. Then what's next? It doesn't take a rocket scientist to see where the number of FT8 users is goingUP, UP, UP!!!FT8 use will continue to expand and with it, the need for additional frequencies. Although it appears that

That sounds like your audio stream froze.Possible causes: #1 RF in the shack.  #2 USB going to sleep -- this should only happen if PC is left unattended. This is happening while your operating, right?  In that case RF is the likely culprit.  Does happen when you transmit?Lots of potential
