Two popular bands: Six meters 50.260 Two meters 144.150 Also some on 220 and 432... But not for the feint of heart.

Made two MSK144 scatter contacts this morning on 2 meters with my IC-9700. One was a new station/grid. 73 de Jim VE4CY

A lot of hams aren't registered with these services. (I know a couple of WSJT-X users that don't have accounts). There is a bit of work involved getting signed up and confirmed with LoTW and eQSL. It

Not sure if you know this, but Wsprnet has an active map showing who has been heard using the mode. Go to https://wsprnet.org/drupal/wsprnet/map and select 6 meters. There are quite a few stations sho

I'll second BktTimeSync.. It's not well known but works well. I have a USB GPS dongle and the software accepts the output so I can set my PC clock using GPS time. (It also uses NNTP if you have no GPS

Check your clock. It has to be pretty accurate. If it get to be near a second out or greater, you won't decode. You can get a good idea of how accurate your clock is at this site --> https://time.is/

We were swamped with EU stations here in VE4 Land a couple of days ago. While it's very nice to see, the congestion was horrible. 50.323 is being considered as an intercontinental DX frequency. Some p

Hi Carlos: I've only been QRV for just over a year with MSK144. I use it on 6m and 2m. I've been through a few meteor showers. I can't speak for everyone, but here in North America, I've never seen an

The TX CQ box is for split operation. (Which is only used when the frequency gets very busy). I haven't seen it used that often. You should leave it unchecked. Normally in the TX6 box, is set up to se

FWIW, if you use the TQSL program to upload your .adif files to LoTW, you can have it convert your Q65 contacts to DATA on the fly. In the TQSL program, click on 'File' in the top bar.. Then choose 'D

A group of us have been trying out Q65 on 432 Mhz. We've been getting good results. Even with minimum tropo conditions in dry subzero air I've been able to work stations over 200 miles away using 70 w

With scatter, the more power the better.. But 80W into 3 elements will work well. (I'm getting good results with 100W into 4 elements). I have a friend who makes contacts using a simple dipole. There

One thing to check is your computer time. It has to be pretty accurate or you'll get no decodes.. You can check your system time accuracy by going to https://time.is/

Heck.. I'm making a mess of this... Still on my first coffee... Q65 is 50.275.. (50.260 is for MSK144)...

Darn.. Should proof read before I post. For six meters, most stations in North America use 50.260 30 seconds mode A
