Ken,

did you read the Quick Start guide.  Release Candidates 4 & 5 (released today) are only 77bit, they will NOT decode 75 bit FT8, which is probably why you're not seeing decodes on a normal FT8 frequency.   The Quick Start advises that you use the standard FT8 frequency, but use the audio range above 2000 for 77 bit work until the General Release in December.

Hi
I have been successfully been using RSC3 then changing to RSC4 there was no decode of waterfall content. FT8 mode.

2 installations -
1  MSSurface Win10 up to date, 2 radios (FT991a & FTdx3000 both USB) - non decode,
2  HP Allinone with FT897/Singnalink. - non decode,
(both setups using HRD (up to date) for CAT control)

For all:
1.9.1 works great
2.0 RC3 works great
2.0 RC4  good waterfall (therefore good audio present) - NO decode.

uninstalling/reinstalling forward and back through versions gives the same result.

i have concluded:
1  I must be holding my mouth wrong - OR
2  I have missed a new setting.
3  When I have been looking/testing RC4, no RC4 (77 bit) transmissions. Not sure here as I have been especially been looking top band.

2 probably!!

In the words of the rich young ruler to Jesus - "What must I do to be saved?"

The other problem is occasionally the FT897 does not let go of transmit after sending. Solved by closing WSJTX.  Have tried 2 soundcards, Signalink and Rigblaster P&P, - persistent intermittent. MIGHT be my aging FT897 - haven't ruled that out.

Great Program Great work.

Thanks
