Michael, I been teaching other hams for a lot of years. I been a ham for 34+ years. Sorry but I disagree about reading the manual. Almost at least if not more then 75% of questions I'm asked are in the manual and or any release notes and yes I read everything that the WSJT dev group puts out. I could go on but I feel this list isn't the place to do this. Thanks, Fred N2XK

In particular for the common operating mode. I've found the most you can expect from an operator with 40+ years of ops is that they know how to turn on their rig and plug in cables. They will know nothing about how to do any audio settings, bandwidth, data rates, serial ports, CAT control, timing requirements, never seen a waterfall, and have no real understanding of suppressed carrier audio.....there's lots to learn if all you've ever done is phone & CW. It should not require a user to read (and completely understand) a 25,000-word manual -- that's asking and expecting far too much. Try taking a teaching attitude -- if there's something you can teach the operator that's one of the major goals of this hobby and life in general. So my idea is simply to give the user an indication when their time is obviously off and educate them in the hopes that they will then educate others. de Mike W9MDB On Tuesday, June 25, 2019, 06:52:55 AM CDT, Fred Price <n...@hotmail.com> wrote: Because it seems a lot of ops want a set it and forget it piece of software. The things I read on this list that ops want WSJT to do amazes me. _______________________________________________ wsjt-devel mailing list wsjt-devel@lists.sourceforge.net<mailto:wsjt-devel@lists.sourceforge.net> https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/wsjt-devel _______________________________________________ wsjt-devel mailing list wsjt-devel@lists.sourceforge.net<mailto:wsjt-devel@lists.sourceforge.net> https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/wsjt-devel
