Hello everyone. Hoping someone might be able to help me here. Trying to get JT Alert running on my computer to work with WSJTX. I seem to get UDP errors however despite following the help file in the program. Any help would be appreciated.
I’m being told the program is unable to communicate with the WSJT x process. Udp port 2237 with standard IP address being used. Anyone have any similar suggestions? Also using HRD for connection and AClog from N3FJP for logging. |

A bit of source digging later, I believe it's been caused by a change

between 2.3.1 and 2.4.0, where these lines were changed from: #if defined (Q_OS_WIN) std::locale::global (std::locale ("C")); #else std::locale::global (std::locale ("en_US.UTF-8")); #endif to // reset the C+ & C global locales to the classic C locale std::locale::global (std::locale::classic ()); Versions up to 2.3.1 work correctly, and 2.4.0 exhibits the bug. Unfortunately there isn't a 2.4.0-rc4-win64 available to try, which is the latest tag before the change. On Thu, 18 Aug 2022 at 09:27, Tordek <kedrot@...> wrote:

Begin is the best way reply to a second conversation before 7 3 can work, but only where the cycle might drop, is best practice, but it isn't guaranteed reply to a second conversation after the first conversation has completed, is unlikely but can work, and requires patience, after waiting you go to CQ if no reply within reasonable time best practice, keep an eye on the graph to see other signals on either the sender or receiver frequency there are no guarantees, but it is interesting regards m1evn On Thursday, 18 August 2022 at 04:20:49 BST, Kent AA6P <kawill70@...> wrote:

That could be the problem, the standard Icom address for the IC9700 is A2h and I think that's the address that WSJT-X will be looking for. Just for comparision here's my settings on my IC9700 CI-V Baud Rate = 19200 Address = A2h Transceive = ON USB/LAN - REMOTE Transceive Address 00h DATA Baud Rate = 19200 DATA Echo Back ON |

Re: Multiple Responses to CQ
#TechnicalHelpQuestion
I agree, Hold Tx Freq is the first step. And I move my Tx freq often using Shift-click on the waterfall to stay on a clear frequency.
As to who I respond to first: - I reply first to the station that I "need" the most, obviously like a new DX country or a new CQ zone. - If there are multiple DX callers then I prioritize the rarest station first, also obvious. It's uncommon, but it does happen sometimes! - The more common situation is multiple NA/US or JA callers - I call the strongest dB station first so I can complete the QSO with the minimum number of repeats. This minimizes the chance of me causing QRM to someone else. - If all the callers are about the same dB strength, I will call the POTA/SOTA stations first since these guys are making extra effort for contacts. - And then, I do give priority to LoTW stations (red text color), but that's just my preference. Hope this helps.73, WA5MD, Tim in Dallas |

Even better is not to select Windows default for the wsjt-x at all, but an external sound card and no to select that to be default!

There are also older rigs that have both mic and data connector permanently connected together and you need to physically disconnect mic. 73 Reino OH3mA the better solution to voices would be to direct them to your computer speakers and not the default device |

This one should work though there are some recommendations to add chokes to it. If you get cat errors while transmitting would mean you need to work on RFI in the shack and possibly add chokes to the cable.

https://www.amazon.com/BQLZR-Cable-IC-275-IC-756Pro-Shortwave/dp/B00IM9HVBW My ever-expanding list of RFI recommendations RFI Problems TestsIf problems are occurring only during transmit: #1 Reduce power to zero and see if the problem stops -- if it does stop than it is definitely RFI. You will see certain higher power levels on certain bands that cause problems. Then, if problems are occurring during non-transmit periods it indicates a system problem with USB devices so... #1 Check USB Power Management option is turned off on all USB devices Device Manager for Windows. For Linux set autosuspend=-1 https://docs.kernel.org/driver-api/usb/power-management.html RFI Fixes: #1 Free - Move USB cables to another port -- some ports are more susceptible than others. #2 Free -- Check your grounding system. rod-outside-the-shack is a common problem when it's not bonded to the main house ground. Common grounding mistakes: A. Ground rod outside the shack that is not bonded to the main house ground. B. Shack equipment bonded incorrectly (e.g. daisy chained instead of common ground point) C. Desktop computer grounded to the house ground instead of the shack ground. D. Ethernet cables that bring RFI into the computer...which then ends up going to the rig too since the ethernet shield is tied to the case which is tied to USB shield which is tied to pin 4 on the USB cable (a very common problem on most all USB devices -- see my QRZ page). E. Wall warts -- 24VAC supplies in sprinkler and alarm systems are notorious for picking up RFI into your electrical system. F. Speaker wires G. Lamps (yes...lamps around the house have unshielded wires as do many other appliances). H. Washer/Dryers are notorious for generating and picking up RFI. B through G may all need chokes. http://www.k9yc.com/GroundingAndAudio.pdf #3 Free -- start unplugging devices around the house and see if there's one device that is acting as a bad source of RFI. This presupposes you can easily repeat the problem on your rig setup. #4 Cheap -- Add some USB shield isolators (see my QRZ page). I use one on my SignaLink for example. #5 Minimal $$ -- Good USB cables like this https://www.amazon.ca/Tripp-U023-006-Device-Ferrite-Chokes/dp/B003MQ29B2/ref=sr_1_5?crid=11YRNPWDVWGCU&keywords=usb+cable+with+choke&qid=1658187349&sprefix=usb+cable+with+choke%2Caps%2C139&sr=8-5 #6 Maybe free (if you have chokes...otherwise can get a bit costly) -- add chokes to USB cables first, then all other cables including power, ethernet, and control cables. Fair-Rite torroids are good quality -- do NOT buy cheap Chinese ones -- https://www.fair-rite.com/product/toroids-5943003801/ You can use clip-ons but torroids allow multiple wraps and give better results. https://www.fair-rite.com/product/round-cable-snap-its-431176451/ I couldn't find type 31 torroids at Fair-Rite as of 20220721 but Palomar has some palomar-engineers.com/ferrite-products/ferrite-cores/ferrite-ring-toroid-combo-pack/ Newark also carries them https://newark.com/c/passive-components/emc-rfi-suppression/ferrites-ferrite-assortments?brand=fair-rite Mike W9MDB On Wednesday, August 17, 2022 at 06:17:56 PM CDT, bobfox <oe7oer@...> wrote:

You can handle additional callers however you want. I tend to favor first come first served unless they are a really weak signal in which case might work somebody stronger first. Mike W9MDB On Wednesday, August 17, 2022 at 10:20:49 PM CDT, Kent AA6P <kawill70@...> wrote:
