Hey Kiddies, Stop. End. I started this based on a genuine observation. Very useful and productive discussion - learning for many - has occurred. Likewise my intent has been clearly been established and teased out. There may be further discussion warranted, but most of what I am seeing is basically trolling now. Trolling is anti to what AR is really about yet is too often seen in our community.
This place is moderated; Moderators please step in heavily on any further non-productive discussion. 73 Steve I VK3VM / VK3SIR HAM β Help All Mankind From: Paul Randall <paulfrand...@hotmail.com> Sent: Thursday, 20 August 2020 8:38 AM To: WSJT software development <wsjt-devel@lists.sourceforge.net> Subject: Re: [wsjt-devel] r2.2.2 Minor Issue with "short" calls that use DX PLS QSY to PM for any chat or popcorn you must have; I believe this channel already in use for software development.

This seemingly innocuous (but useful) thread has suddenly gotten much more interesting.

I've asked stupid questions on here, been pointed at the answer elsewhere and regretted my lack of "go find it". What I can say is I didn't make my questions into a boxed set, to be enjoyed for a whole season. If you've nothing better to do it may be a distraction but this forum is purposed for "WSJT Software development" WSJT software allows us all to use some extremely clever turnkey signal processing software to make contacts on almost every band with potentially minimal equipment. It does however still require operators to have a tad more than minimal "pizzaz!" A while back I saw CQs from (bogus) T3ST (bogus) - I'm sure I could have complained here "why did I see this?" and who could have known this was BOGUS (bogus callsign) BOGUS. T3ST? who could have guessed? BOGUS So, if you are operating CW or SSB or AM or FM or RTTY or anything else, and you hear a BOGUS (bogus) callsign, please don't expect your morse key, or electronic keyer, or balanced modulator, or any other modulator, to remove from you the need to identify the callsign as BOGUS (bogus) or prevent you from replying. WSJT software in conjunction with PSKReporter has revolutionised our view of LF, VHF and UHF propagation. I worked Falklands on top band! My neighbour was able to record transmissions from D4VHF Cape Verde on 2M for almost every day in June, a path length equivalent to Europe - North America. I personally worked D4VHF on 70cm twice in July. Transatlantic path length on 70cm??? Really? Let's keep this channel open and clear for input to the software development team for that purpose - software development, also keep in mind WSJT software has a specific purpose and is not intended to be a "go everywhere, do everything" answer for every possible scenario you might experience. Licensed operator is still required. Maybe a lot of these posts might be better sent to a WSJT user forum, where operators can exchange experiences and gain understanding. So, I echo the OMs intention, let's rejoice in asking questions, but please re-consider the bandwidth you are occupying, is it appropriate or perhaps better elsewhere?

If you donβt know the call and it looks bogus (yes it does) why are you even looking at it? Dimiss it and move on. There is supposed to be an operator at the keyboard to interpret these things.
