As during VP6D, was seen, that they used 9 slots!
As far as I know, VP6D used WSJT-X v1.9.1. The maximum number of slots
is 5.
When they CQ'ed, using
only one signal, signal was example -7, great, send my call, next lost
them totally, because they answered to 9 stations. I saw only slot
frames, but no decoding information. Someone, who had better antennas,
told me, that they are answering to me, no see...
I could copy, when they answered with 4 slots and fortunately got
qso.
So, maybe limiting slots to some lower or to documentation some
words for dx, when propagation is bad, don't use more than 3-4 slots
max.
It's easy for Fox to limit the number of slots in use, and good
operators quickly learn when to do this.
