Hi all, Please allow me to return to the problem of the non standard messages, when using auto sequencing, as usual with FT8. Here when using rc2.
Concerned entries from ALL.TXT: 170915_093400 Transmitting 10.136 MHz FT8: CQ DJ0OT JN58 093415 11 0.2 1619 ~ DJ0OT SM4EMO JO79 170915_093430 Transmitting 10.136 MHz FT8: SM4EMO DJ0OT +11 093445 13 0.2 1620 ~ DJ0OT SM4EMO R+04 170915_093500 Transmitting 10.136 MHz FT8: SM4EMO DJ0OT RRR 093515 9 0.3 1620 ~ TU CLAUDE 73 170915_093530 Transmitting 10.136 MHz FT8: CLAUDE DJ0OT As we can see, the software is switching to the second word of the non standard message, considering it as the callsign of the partner station, now. As a consequence, the log entry is wrong too. <call:6>CLAUDE <gridsquare:0> <mode:3>FT8 <rst_sent:3>+11 <rst_rcvd:3>+04 <qso_date:8>20170915 <time_on:6>093415 <qso_date_off:8>20170915 <time_off:6>093549 <band:3>30m <freq:9>10.137620 <station_callsign:5>DJ0OT <my_gridsquare:6>JN58tc <comment:25>FT8 Sent: +11 Rcvd: +04 <eor> I think that, in this form, the error will be recognized too late, e.g. when sending to a QSL service. I have added a further test in the software processing the log, in order to test the plausibility of the callsign. Although this is not superfluous, it is not really a solution.
