I'm using v2.2.0-rc1 for a day or two, although on WSPR as yet. Only one minor problem so far. The Tx power doesn't seem to remember the last value set, after restart always returns to 60dBm 1kW. Most everything is saved correctly (Tx freq, Tx percentage, etc.), only this particular one is lost and I have to set it back once I stop the program and restart. Has anyone also noticed or I just missed something among changes?

I hope this is a temporary oversight but the main screen on OS X looks like an old Windows version - a huge change form v 2.1.2 for OS X. 73 Harry K7GQ |

Re: Collapased Waterfall and Decoding
neil_zampella <neilz@...>
I hate to say this but setting the WSJT-X devices as DEFAULT will
cause a lot of problems as most Windows programs will use the
DEFAULT devices to for their sound output. This is very bad
advice.

It still happens from time to time here, too. I have concluded it must be some glitch
in the way Windows 10 handles audio devices. Try setting your default audio devices to the same ones that WSJT-X uses, and see if that helps.

Collapased Waterfall and Decoding
Marty Tressell
It appears others have the same issue with a collapassed waterfall...I am running windows 10 on my computer and had no issue until toward the end of April when I noticed the issue! I have uninstalled and re installed from scratch a
same issue. Today I decided to try JTDX to see if the issue persisted and it did with its waterfall as well! Concluding it must be Windows issue and no updated since April 15 and it was working after that! Machine is updating a number of things today I will reboot and reinstall again to see what happens... Any suggestions will be appreciated! -- Marty Tressell, K0BBK mtressell@... |

Where do I find out how to handle this thing? I did a search in the forum but was buried by questions regarding logs of other logging programs. Steve, N4JQQ |

Re: TS440s (Was Re: WSJT-X 2.2.0-rc1)

I am going to state this, I run an Icom 746 and I have run N1MM and WSJT together, it works… I switched to HRD because I have it… So your TS-440 should talk to N1MM and thus to WSJT
From: WSJTX@groups.io [mailto:WSJTX@groups.io] On Behalf Of JP Tucson, AZ
No, it is NOT required!
I repeat, N1MM runs the exact same hardware & works perfectly to control the rig! No, the 2 programs, N1MM & wsjt-x don't run at the same time.
The wsjt-x 440 selection works not at all! The Ts-140S works, but is unstable.
It's not r.f.i.; I've tried it with near zero power out & into a dummy load on wsjt-x. Yet I can run N1MM PERFECTLY FINE on 100 Watts!
It's a wsjt-x problem; period!

Re: WSJT-X 2.2.0 false decodes FT8
Hi Dana,
The bad thing about false decodes is that they are false. The good thing is that they are easy to recognize. We have to make decisions that affect the trade-off between sensitivity and the rate of undetected false decodes. We have favored sensitivity, slightly, while assuring that the false-decode rate is still very low. -- 73, Joe, K1JT |

Re: 2.2.0-rc1 WOW !!
Hi Mike,
Yes, subtraction of already-decoded signals in WSJT-X v2.2.0 is even better than in earlier versions. We're delighted that you noticed! -- 73, Joe, K1JT |

Re: TS440s (Was Re: WSJT-X 2.2.0-rc1)
W1EL Eric
John,
I would suggest trying it with the IF-232 inserted as Kenwood designed. It is entirely possible that N1MM is using a different software scheme to create the signals to run the radio, than what WSJT uses. I know very little about such things, but it would be worth a try to hook it up as designed before you condemn the application.
Very Respectfully, Eric (W1EL)
