CQ RU is fine. CQ FTRU is just one example.73,Ed W0YK -------- Original message --------From: John <[email protected]> Date: 12/3/20 02:38 (GMT-08:00) To: [email protected], 'WSJT software development' <[email protected]> Subject: RE: [wsjt-devel] FT Roundup Practice Sessions Hi Ed,Ne is back to CQ RUIndeed, it would be nice to use in the CQ line f.i. CQ FTRU call or similar but when you start next qso, the tx6 line goes back to CQ RU.Would be nice if you keep the FTRU all the way during contest. It would also be nice if this RU setting could be variable, so many other digi contestCan use it, like here in the Netherlands we have provinces, NB,ZL etc. Something like CQ PA CALL, but the problem is that you need to change it back to PA after every qso.

Use the bands that are open for you and operate as though it is the real contest. Be sure to setup a contest-specific CQ message, e.g., CQ FTRU, so others know to call you with RU messaging rather than daily default messaging. For each of FT4 and FT8 on each band, there are three sub-bands recommended. See Rule 1. for details. When the first sub-band gets crowded, move up to the second or third sub-band. IOW, “spread out” just as is done in other contest modes. Everyone will find it easier to make and complete QSOs when there is less congestion. 73,Ed W0YK
