Can this " 'power' and what is QRP" thread go to the Yahoo group??
This is for reports of BUGS or other ISSUES with the software, not how
users OPERATE.
FWIW ... FT8 was NEVER a QRP mode, it is a WEAK SIGNAL mode as is the
other WSJT-X modes.
From the first page of K1JT's website:
"/WSJT-X, WSJT, MAP65, /and/WSPR /are open-source programs designed for
weak-signal digital communication by amateur radio.

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!

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 knob up or down to cut part of band with
roofing filter, but some possible split callers are lost then..

Předmět: Re: [wsjt-devel] New FT8 Frequencies?
Just say'n-
Strong propagation can make a low power station decode with a high
signal report.
If you retire the strong signals first you will hear the weak
signals under neigh them.
Finally, short of checking Hamspots [hopefully the station is
reporting to H.S.] how is an Op to know what his report is at the FOX?

I said nothing about running power. I said strong signal,
wanting to have a way to only allow display or decode of
weaker signals, the level of which I determine and set. This
is similar to the function available in DXpedition mode.
