Hi Sandro, Thanks, as always, for your detailed comments on WSJT-X v1.6.1 r5870. I am copying this response to the wsjt-devel list, since some of the points you raise may be best answered by another one of us.

Bill/G4WJS may want to comment on these appearance matters. Up to now I have not spent much time on cosmetic issues in the experimental branch. It is probably time now to pay some attention to them. > Now only for 1.6.1 on switch between modes. > > Select JT9, NO EME Delay, no FAST, submode A. > Enable FAST, T/R 15 sec. > I can transmit long (near 50sec) message interrupted every 15 seconds. The fast JT9 submodes are JT9E - JT9H only. I will make it impossible to check FAST in submodes JT9A-D. > Enable Auto Seq > Disable FAST > > The Fast graph is hidden, but Wide graph mark with horizontal lines > every 15 sec.

This is a consequence of using the same underlying CheckBox (with a different visible label) for both Auto-Seq and EME Delay. I will probably leave it as is, for now. > If now I select JT65 the Wide graph is correct, but "FAST" is > actionable, so I can transmit part of the JT65[A-C] messages in > 5-10-15-30 seconds. > Can be a idea for fast JT65 modes or filter to avoid errors. There will be no JT65 fast modes (bandwidth would be much too large). I will make sure the "Fast" checkbox is not available for JT65 modes. > Generic considerations > > In source code the files > http://sourceforge.net/p/wsjt/wsjt/HEAD/tree/branches/wsjtx_exp/wsjtx_changelog.txt > > http://sourceforge.net/p/wsjt/wsjt/HEAD/tree/branches/wsjtx/wsjtx_changelog.txt > > refer to May 30, 2013: Version 1.0, r3323, that absolutely do not > respect the big work from that date. You are correct... but these files are not used any more, and they are not visible to the normal user. > The file http://physics.princeton.edu/pulsar/K1JT/wsjt_modes.txt contain > a nice table of supported mode, that can be added with small work to > help as "Supported Mode". Probably a good idea. :-) Thanks again, Sandro, for your careful testing and documentation of what you have done. Your effort is a BIG help toward making WSJT-X a polished program! -- 73, Joe, K1JT ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Monitor Your Dynamic Infrastructure at Any Scale With Datadog!
