Good operating practice is to listen more than we transmit. If you're listening (decoding) during both periods, it's easy to tell where other signals are within the FT8/FT4,JT65/JT9 passband. My

There was a mention of something like this, likely a JT9 derivative. From my standpoint the problem is an opening to EU or VK may only last 5 to 10 minutes, sometimes less. When I worked VK4YB three

Al, you must have missed this from the same thread you are posting to: This is from a Government Operator of one of the stations on 60 meters that has to put up with the current abuse of the 60m

Shsssssh nobody is pay any attention to this. There have been no complaints so it is not causing any interference or you would have heard about it by now the less said the better. True Adventure

I agree 100% with George. I am using one of these USB hubs on my ASUS (I5/8GB/1TB) office laptop, works great (using a different tower for WSJT-X, though).

The "Government" will be QRV on 5330.5 kHz operating simplex during the 2020 Armed Forces Day Crossband Test NSS will be operated by the Naval Academy Radio Club and the Potomac Valley Radio Club

I occasionally get a strange message in the RX Frequency window like this: 165945 -18 -1.2 1871 ~ NY4P LA8UFY/R R FM94 a2 If I double-click on it then it brings up the logging

Well Jim someone would say this, you must prearrange with the other station to make contact at a certain time to make the exchange and be coordinated with other stations wanting to use this 1500 Hz

Take that up with the ARRL and what it actually means. If the freq is in use, you must desist. If you hear someone in qso on 1500 Hz already, you are not supposed to transmit. In any case, we are not

Bob, The OO program is being reconstituted into what the ARRL and FCC have agreed upon..(Volunteer Monitoring) I have no idea what they (the OOs) had been doing prior to this agreement they seem

Back last August/September I seem to remember seeing a post about a new WSJT mode in the early stages of development by K1JT and K9AN designed specifically for 136kHz, 472KHz and 160. It was to be

The signal is not limited to one tone (SSB is certainly more than one tone). The requirement is that whatever bandwidth the signal occupies MUST be centered on the assigned channel. That is standard

TOTALLY ABSURD ! Technically impossible. How can I tell if someone I can't hear is transmitting on that channel ?

Regarding number of USB ports: an alternative to searching for multi-USB ported systems, I use a 7-port powered USB port extender on a tablet form-factor, which gives enough USB ports for USB backup

Fred, I could use that help from the guide too. Where do I find that? 73 W6UZ

Bruce, Well done! Your research and explanation makes perfect sense when one understands exactly how FT8 works. I'll plan to stay above 1500 Hz on FT8 with my VFO set at 5.357 MHz in the

N0AN, The Official Observer Program used to do an adequate job of informing Amateurs of proper Band usage. Where are they these days? As I said before, FT8 uses 8-FSK Modulation with 6.25 Hz

Could be looking for justification for a new computer... "Look honey, I asked the folks on the group and the consensus is that I need that Power House I showed you." John

Looking up the specs on this computer, I was blown away! It seems like alot of power I would not need as it would only be limited to WSJT-X , RTTY & CW. Would it make sense for me to upgrade to this
