Re: V2.2.0 rc1 error on start up (32 bit)

Why didn't you install the 64 bit version, its actually faster
than the 32 bit version, and will still work on Win7. On 5/11/2020 5:38 PM, ny2ny wrote:

Re: v2.2.0.rc1 settings and rig control problems
Ken,
I don’t know what version of SSDR you are running but
cat and dax have major issues in 2.5 and above. I’ve also found that I have less
cat issues running the rig control in wsjt under kenwood ts-2000 instead of
flex.

Subject: Re: [WSJTX] v2.2.0.rc1 settings and rig control
problems Hi Bill,
I'm having settings problems with the new 2.2.0-rc1. Both 32 bit and
64 bit behave the same. Tried both. Have had no problems in the
past.
In the following I'm running WSJT-X 2.2.0-rc1 64 bit with rig control to a
Flex 6500 on Win 8.0.
Here's an example of what happens:
I've turned the 6500 output to zero, so no
RFI issues. WSJT-X Pwr set as per normal for audio drive..
I call CQ with a three minute time out. Rig control is working.
After one or two CQs WSJT-X does a "Halt TX", disabling TX. Much of
the time this also disables the rig control and I get the "Rig Control Error" splash screen.
I can OK that to go to the "Radio Setting" screen, OK again and I go back to the
program and rig control works again. I need to hit "Enable TX" to
continue.
If I power up the 6500 and get a QSO going, WSJT-X will often disable TX
again during the QSO so I have to manually re-Enable. And often I'll get the
"Rig Control Error" again,
It seems settings are getting lost somehow along the way. It's
difficult to see a pattern.
Some of my "General" settings weren't carried over from 2.1.2 but once
reset, they stay..
73, Ken, AB1J

2.2.0-rc1
Gary Gorniak
Installation of the 64 bit Windows version went flawlessly for me. So far I have seen no issues. One thing of note is that I seem to be decoding more signals that are close to the noise floor on the waterfall, in the -20 to -24 range. Just an observation so far. I have not quantified it.
As always, thanks to you and your team Joe for all the hard work!

Re: FT8 Logging Problem!
W4AS
I agree with you Lance. If you’re on 6 meters for example, and there is an opening to EU, then skipping Tx1 is fine, since you can tell where someone is based on their call. But if you are calling me from the US, I have no idea where you are if you don’t send your grid.
toggle quoted messageShow quoted text
Also, regardless of what some have said here, I don’t see the problem in someone calling me when I’m working someone else (so long as it’s not on my TX frequency). When I’m done with the QSO, I’ll do my best to get back to the other callers - but please don’t call on my TX frequency, that makes decoding very difficult, if not impossible, if there are multiple callers. 73 de Sebastian, W4AS

Re: JT Alert Question
Bill <k2wh@...>
OK guys, thanks, I was afraid that removing the All.txt file would affect my DXCC saved entities but I now understand it is simply a reference file of my activities and band activities and the DXCC and States worked have nothing to do with WSJT-x.
I'll leave it alone, I thought the ALL file was a lookup file to determine if I had already worked a station as indicated in JTalert and if I removed the file that would all disappear and I would have to start all over. I am not running out of disc space. Thanks. Bill K2WH

Number of new decodes... Kinda buried... if I may suggest, I think It may be easier to find & look better & be more informative if you display as such: In the band activity header: UTC dB DT Freq Message #decodes - ## ## ## Total ## That way, we can see how many decodes per cycle & the total #. This would also allow better feedback to you folks for refinement if we see issues.

Re: WSJT-X 2.2.0-rc1
JP Tucson, AZ
Display jumps... ; DT suggestion... Hello, Just downloaded the new 2.2.0... Definitely decoding faster... However, I have noticed that during the second decode cycle, the band activity screen jumps up about a half a line, then upon the third, if there are more stations to display, it jumps more. This makes trying to click on a station a bit difficult, and often causes the wrong station to be selected. Secondly, I don't have color blindness - thankfully; however, now the green bracket to me is too dark and nearly blends in with the waterfall, as I do have astigmatism. Could you make an option to where we can select the waterfall bracket colors please? Thanks. Still not seeing a selection for the Kenwood TS-440S; and it still does not work on my radio. Did you guys get the message email I sent that included the IC-10 manual, for comparison to what you are sending out? Is there anyway, you could program a way to 'zero out' the DT between two stations? This would be for those stations that are way off, yet still decode... Right now, I am at .1 with most stations, yet, I have a guy here who is at 3.1 seconds & +04 signal, still decoding, but he doesn't respond as he appears not to see anyone calling back. I notice this too with a lot of foreign stations, and we lose QSO's due to excess DT.

Hi Lance,

If it were EU VHF contest, then at least there you can fill the missing information into the received report box. I think that it accepted also e.g. R-10 or -15, which are not in the EU VHF format 539001. I have had that and managed to log the QSO. Cannot exactly remember how, hi! 73, Reino OH3mA

Hi Reino, Yes, my point was this: I was unable to log the contact at all. Yes, they probably were not in the contest - they probably just needed my grid. But the way WSJT-X is/was set up, it was impossible to log the contact :-( It would be GREAT if such a contact without a grid was NOT added to the contest log, but you were not prevented from logging the contact in the regular log :-) On a somewhat related subject, hopefully more people - at least on the VHF and UHF bands - will be encouraged to call with TX#1 (with their grid locator) so I can see where they are! Last night I found I needed to move the antenna around to complete with the weaker callers, but if they didn't call with their grid square, I had no idea where to point for them :-( As the propagation fades, their signal faded out and they disappeared before I could figure out where to move the antenna.

John,
JTAlert does not read the WSJT-X ALL.TXT file. It reads the WSJT-X settings file at startup, all of the rest of the communication with WSJT-X is via the WSJT-X UDP Message Protocol.

Band activity refresh issue
Reino Talarmo
Hi development group, Thanks for the rc1. Up to now it is working nicely in my Windows 10 64bit version. Only drawback I noted is the refreshment of the Band activity window. I have the ‘Start new period decodes at top’ ticked and it does that once the first decoding period proceeds as expected, but it clears the display almost immediately and start at the top with the rest of decodes, perhaps twice as I see only low level signals most of the time. I assume that it should start only at the beginning of the first decodes of that timeslot and then continue with the rest of decodes. 73, Reino OH3mA
