I'm usig 2 instances of WSJT-X (FT8) Instant #1 the Hold TX Freq box always needs to be checked at startup . Once checked , it stays checked untill the next time I load WSJT-X instant #1 .. Instant # 2 always stays checked at startup . I placed the setting side by side and went through each tab one by one and both are set the same .

I'm using a Flex 6600 with Slicemaster to control digital modes and CWSkimmer . Anyone ever have this issue ? It would be nice not having to remember to check the Hold TX Freq box at startup .

Thanks Ed N5DG

TX locked into odd cycle / Problem only in f/h

 

I’ve seen postings elsewhere for this problem on versions prior to 2.0, but no answers/solutions

First f/h use since upgrading to v2.0.1, did not see this problem on earlier versions

No change/response to Ctl-E or Shift-E in f/h (as suggested in one online reply)

Settings according to User Guide and F/H Notes

Scrubbed WSJT-X from system/reinstalled (2.0.1) – no change

WSJT-X running alone (e.g., no JTAlert) – same result

 

Need some fresh ideas … anyone?

AL throw I don’t use FT4 there is a real BUG in this software.  Some where there is a message from wsjt explaining a work around it, and there is a new version coming very soon to correct it

I have searched and found no one else with this problem, or maybe I didn't search the right way.  Anyway, I just installed the new RC5 version of WSJT-X.  I have made a few contacts and that part seems to be working just fine.  My problem is that all of the signals I receive are reported as being above 0db in strength.  The weakest signal I have seen has been 7db, not -7.  I have sent 35db as report to a station in England.  I know I have a good receiver, but not that good.  This only does this in FT4 mode, things are normal in FT8.  Did I miss something in the documentation or is something seriously wrong with my setup?

Hi Claude,

the frequencies are present in the internal default list, to revert to that, discarding any modifications you have made, you must reset the list. See the release announcement for details.

There are many stations spotting to PSKReporter using FT4, I have no idea why yours is not, do you have PSKReporter spotting enabled in the settings?

Hi Bill

Made a frequencies reset and  now OOB have disappear and FT4 spot are visible on Pskreporter.

Before resetting, only other mode are sent (visible?) on PSKreporter  (maybe FT4 spot are sent but not visible)

I got a +35 report the other day on FT4.  Crazy that I can ever get that kind of signal.  A fluke? cuz otherwise all is normal and working fine.

Thanks for the reply, Bill.  You're right about the filters.  I had been working CW and forgot to put the filter back to its widest position and I had my twin passband filters tightened up a little.  That certainly made my results much better.  I am now getting signals in the minus range now, but I am still getting signals as high as 26db.  Is that normal?

Hi Ron,

the SNR estimates rely on an accurate estimate of the noise energy, that is done using a baseline curve fitting algorithm across the waterfall bandwidth. The reason for this mechanism is that FT4 is expected to be used on a busy channel where overlapping signal may noise estimates within the width of a signal unreliable. Knowing that it should be clear that not matching the receiver bandwidth to the waterfall bandwidth may cause the true noise energy to be grossly underestimated.

26dB signals are not impossible but I'm not sure we expect much accuracy at high values like that.

Hi Ron,

to get representative SNR reports the waterfall bandwidth must be roughly the same as your receivers bandwidth. Avoid using any filter on your rig that is narrower that the width extents of the waterfall.

Hi Augusto,

I'm sorry that this didn't solve the problem, and it really looks like you're trying all the right things. The only difference I can see now is that I'm using an IC-7610 and you're using an IC-7100. In WSJT-X, under Preferences/Audio, does the Soundcard setting for input and output show USB Audio CODEC? That's the setting I see after installing the Silicon Labs driver.

I'm really guessing now and am not in front of my rig. I can go back and look later today and see if I can think of anything else.

I have build wsjtx-2.1.0-rc5 from source on debian testing (unable to

In FT4 mode i have two issues.

The first all frequencies for FT4 are displayed in RED with "OOB". I
have added frequencies by hand because they are not present

the second, wsjtx does not send any report to Pskreporter

When in FT8 mode all works fine


any idea?
