Mike, > They decode the same whether AP is selected or not. I did put K9AN in the DX > Call box and Generated Msgs. Is there more required to get AP to work?
As I said before: > To see the effect of AP, the state machine has to be in the appropriate state > (you can click on Tx buttons to set the state) and Dx Call has to contain the > right callsign (K9AN for the example message that I gave). Your first message implied that you suspected a problem with RRR/73 messages. Your test message will not shed any light on that question, as you must know. In any case, I did a test similar to yours. I generated 10 files with SNR=-22 dB as follows: $ ./ft8sim "K9AN W9MDB -15" s 1500.0 0.0 0.1 1.0 10 -22 Generating single signal at 1500 Hz. f0: 1500.000 DT: 0.00 TxT: 12.6 SNR: -22.0 BW:50.0 K9AN W9MDB -15 I then entered W9MDB into the DX call box and decoded the files with AP turned off. The results are: 000004 -21 0.0 1500 ~ K9AN W9MDB -15 000010 -21 0.0 1500 ~ K9AN W9MDB -15 Next, I selected “Enable AP” under the decode menu, and put the state machine into the “CALLING” state (see the User guide, table 2) by selecting the “CQ” message. In this state, the AP decoder is looking only for CQs and for messages containing MyCall. The results were: 000001 -22 0.0 1500 ~ K9AN W9MDB -15 a2 000004 -21 0.0 1500 ~ K9AN W9MDB -15 000007 -21 0.0 1500 ~ K9AN W9MDB -15 ? a2 000010 -21 0.0 1500 ~ K9AN W9MDB -15 Next, I put the state machine into the REPLYING state by selecting Tx1. In this state, the decoder looks for "MyCall ???" (ap2) and “MyCall DxCall” (ap3). The results were: 000001 -22 0.0 1500 ~ K9AN W9MDB -15 a2 000004 -21 0.0 1500 ~ K9AN W9MDB -15 000006 -22 0.0 1500 ~ K9AN W9MDB -15 ? a3 000007 -21 0.0 1500 ~ K9AN W9MDB -15 ? a2 000008 -21 0.0 1500 ~ K9AN W9MDB -15 ? a3 000010 -21 0.0 1500 ~ K9AN W9MDB -15 Finally, I generated 100 messages, this time with SNR=-23 dB and this time the message contains “73”, i.e.: $ ./ft8sim "K9AN W9MDB 73" s 1500.0 0.0 0.1 1.0 100 -23 Generating single signal at 1500 Hz. f0: 1500.000 DT: 0.00 TxT: 12.6 SNR: -23.0 BW:50.0 K9AN W9MDB 73 I put the state machine into the ROGER_REPORT state by selecting Tx4. The results are: 000004 -22 0.0 1500 ~ K9AN W9MDB 73 a3 000007 -22 0.0 1500 ~ K9AN W9MDB 73 ? a5 000008 -22 0.0 1500 ~ K9AN W9MDB 73 a5 000010 -21 0.0 1500 ~ K9AN W9MDB 73 a3 000014 -23 0.0 1501 ~ K9AN W9MDB 73 a3 000015 -22 -0.0 1500 ~ K9AN W9MDB 73 a5 000022 -22 0.0 1500 ~ K9AN W9MDB 73 ? a3 000025 -22 0.0 1501 ~ K9AN W9MDB 73 ? a3 000027 -22 0.0 1500 ~ K9AN W9MDB 73 a3 000030 -23 0.0 1500 ~ K9AN W9MDB 73 ? a5 000031 -22 0.0 1500 ~ K9AN W9MDB 73 a5 000033 -22 0.0 1500 ~ K9AN W9MDB 73 ? a3 000034 -22 -0.0 1500 ~ K9AN W9MDB 73 a5 000035 -22 0.0 1500 ~ K9AN W9MDB 73 a3 000037 -22 -0.0 1500 ~ K9AN W9MDB 73 ? a3 000040 -23 -0.0 1501 ~ K9AN W9MDB 73 a5 000043 -22 0.0 1500 ~ K9AN W9MDB 73 ? a3 000046 -22 -0.0 1500 ~ K9AN W9MDB 73 ? a3 000047 -22 0.0 1501 ~ K9AN W9MDB 73 ? a5 000049 -22 -0.0 1500 ~ K9AN W9MDB 73 a3 000050 -22 0.0 1501 ~ K9AN W9MDB 73 ? a5 000053 -22 0.0 1500 ~ K9AN W9MDB 73 ? a5 000054 -22 0.0 1500 ~ K9AN W9MDB 73 a3 000055 -23 0.0 1500 ~ K9AN W9MDB 73 ? a5 000059 -23 0.0 1500 ~ K9AN W9MDB 73 a5 000065 -22 -0.0 1500 ~ K9AN W9MDB 73 ? a5 000066 -23 0.0 1500 ~ K9AN W9MDB 73 ? a3 000068 -22 0.0 1501 ~ K9AN W9MDB 73 ? a5 000071 -22 0.0 1500 ~ K9AN W9MDB 73 ? a3 000075 -22 0.0 1500 ~ K9AN W9MDB 73 a3 000076 -22 0.0 1500 ~ K9AN W9MDB 73 ? a5 000078 -22 0.0 1501 ~ K9AN W9MDB 73 a3 000089 -22 -0.0 1500 ~ K9AN W9MDB 73 a3 000090 -22 0.0 1500 ~ K9AN W9MDB 73 a3 000094 -22 0.0 1501 ~ K9AN W9MDB 73 a3 000095 -22 0.0 1501 ~ K9AN W9MDB 73 ? a3 000096 -22 0.0 1500 ~ K9AN W9MDB 73 ? a3 000097 -22 -0.0 1501 ~ K9AN W9MDB 73 ? a3 There were 38 decodes, and all of them required the use of AP information. This all seems to be working as designed.
