Hi Sam,

WSJT-X follows long established operating practice, when starting a QSO the operating frequency is set and kept the same throughout the QSO. Moving during a QSO requires direct intervention by the operator.

The FT8 decoder in WSJT-X is capable of decoding more than signal on the same frequency, time synchronization differences are not particularly relevant. Weaker underlying signals are revealed to the decoder by subtracting an exact facsimile (both amplitude and phase) of previously decoded signals, then trying the decoding again on the remaining waveform.

Hi Bill,

Testing 2.3-RC3 – So far so good. Made the necessary adjustments to the different tab sequences so that is no longer an issue. My program recognizes the current running WSJT-X version and now reacts correctly whether you are using WSJT-X 2.2.2 as well as 2.3-rc3. If you have not done so, you don’t need to change anything with tab sequencing on my account in the next release.

I did notice one item that may cause inadvertent QRM. I replied to a station calling CQ. As I did not have Hold TX checked, WSJT-X moved automatically to the calling CQ offset. After logging the QSO, I replied to another calling station that was a few Hertz away from the previous caller and as expected WSJT-X moved to the second caller offset. After my first reply, the second station moved to another clear offset but WSJT-X stayed on the second caller first offset. While the QSO was completed, I think that WSJT-X should have moved again to the second caller new offset as I still did not have Hold TX checked.

Looking at the screen at the DT time and offset values, I believe that the reason WSJT-X was able to decode the second caller even though he was just a few Hertz away from the first called is because the first caller DT was 1.1 while the second caller DT was 0.1.

Anyway, that is just an observation.

Have a great day and thanks again.

Hi Bill,

Thanks for the email. I just have to make sure that it all works.
Just thought I would mention it.

It wasn't until I started making QLog visually impaired friendly that
I realized how important the tabbing sequence really is in the UI.

I am already modifying QLog to take care of this situation so
that it can be used with 2.2x and 2.3x

Keep up the great work with this product. I can assure you that
the blind hams are having a great time with this.

Have a safe and healthy 2021.

73,

Sam W2JDB

Downloaded the new version and started testing it with my program (QLog) for the visually impaired. Noticed some weird tab sequences in the Generate Std Msgs group of controls.

In Ver 2.2 pressing Shortcut keys Ctrl+6 then Shift+Tab changed focus to the tx6 input box. Subsequent multiple Shift+Tab key strokes shift focus to the previous Tx input boxes.

In Ver 2.3-rc3 pressing Shortcut keys Ctrl+6 then Shift+Tab changes focus to the [1] control in the group. The next Shift+Tab changes focus to the Hold Tx Freq check box. If you press Ctrl+6 then the TAB key, focus shifts the tx1 input box. The next TAB key press shifts focus to the tx6 input box, the next TAB moves you to the [tx5] button, another TAB moves to the [tx2] button, next TAB move to the tx2 input, followed by a TAB to the tx4 input.
Just an FYI

Hi Sam,
I don't think anyone has consciously attempted to define any sort of logical flow of Tab/Shift+Tab widget navigation for the WSJT-X main window. I have defined the ordering for the next release but be aware that it may vary when widgets are changed in the future.
