The Pico balloon email group is here... https://groups.io/g/picoballoon Thanks ! Bernard, KC9SGV Chicago. Sent from my iPad

Bill, What I was referring to is exactly when should the number of streams be changed? Obviously not during a TX sequence but is during an RX sequence OK? John

Hi All, FT8 is a wonderful weak signal mode. For Pico high altitude balloon telemetery, we need a bit more data stream functionality to enter data from sensors such as GPS, baro, temp, humidity,

Doesn't QRZ and LOTW Use a 30 minute window for logging conformation? And I believe it is standard when Updating the log it is 1 minute difference. It can be tedious to have it log as many times as

That happened to me a few times but I noticed that each time it did, either the sent or received signal report boxes were empty. Once I filled them in (from the WSJTX line item) I could hit Log and

Sounds good to me - would help identifying multipliers. - John, N0TA On 12/9/2019 8:38 AM, Hank Garretson wrote:

They should run fine without admin privs. Also take a look at this app, I tried Dim 4 for awhile, and then switched to this one, I like its simplicity: http://www.timesynctool.com/

Hi John, hard to answer that definitively. If the signal reports start dropping and the rate decreases then that may be a time to reduce the number of slots, on the assumption that Hounds are missing

Thanks, Bill. One further question: when do you suggest is the best time to change the number of slots? During an RX session or at a different time? John W9ILY

I have the State ID turned on in JTAlert, and found it very easy to see their location.

Michael, et al: We have a Club Station that has no Internet access and we also do Special Events and Field Day from locations with no Internet access. Some of our Members and I have watches that are

John, Bill, perhaps another approach would be to think of the data flow and how integrity of the contact log is maintained. Currently WSJT-X has data integrity since a log entry is made

why? the exchange contains the state ... many people these days 'collect' grid squares, so that is an additional bit of information provided by the current format.

If the building has wifi, put a Raspberry Pi at roof level with a GPS unit and a wifi dongle. Let it be a ntp server for the network. Jim Bacher, WB8VSU wb8vsu@... https://trc.guru

We thought about that. Problem is, the shack is in the middle of the first floor of a three story building. We would have to run a line to the roof for the GPS to work. Huge task. Michael

and I just waited for CQing stations to send their next sequence which revealed their location if they were in USA Andy

Hi John, glad things are going well apart from the dupes in the log. I am sure you have worked this out, but take care to have the number of slots allowed set appropriately for the propagation

Hi Bill. Yes, we are using 2.1.2 and understand the process. It would be good if, in the future, a second or third transmitted RR73 within a 2 minute period, for example, did not create additional log
