Jean Louis, Joe - 

Does this happen only if you have never touched TX Pct since starting the 
program?

When you observed this behavior what was the TX Pct? How long did you run with 
no transmissions? In particular, did you go for a full 2 hours with no 
transmission? If so, then does the scheduler eventually kick in after 2 hours 
with no transmission?

I haven’t changed anything in the wspr tx scheduler recently. I know that Bill 
adjusted the band selection algorithm not too long ago, but that shouldn’t have 
involved the scheduler. I just looked at the code, and it seems that the tx 
table should be automatically generated the first time that next_tx_state() is 
called.

I’ll also note that the statistics of the scheduler may “feel” different when 
TX Pct is less than 17%, as a different algorithm is used in that regime.
