Based on the fact the dB reports sent and received are based on the local noise level as compared to the received signal strength, I would expect the concern to be very understandable. The dB report i

Let me try to clarify a few misconceptions. In order to control the Jupiter from FLDIGI via CAT control, it is necessary to go to the FLDIGI site, and then to FILES, and then to XMLs files, then to Te

Your radio perhaps hasn't selected a dummy load or no antenna for that band has it? There is lots of FT-8 activity on 7.074. 73 Bob, K4TAX

I upgraded to 2.4.0 and I'm running Windows 10 Pro. I saw no change in the PWR slider for either TUNE or Operate. I do have Remember Tune and PWR settings checked in the F2 menu option. 73 Bob, K4TAX

I just fire up WSJT, look at the delta T on decoded stations. If less than +/- 0.5 then all is good. If there are signals observed on the waterfall but no decoded, check your computer clock. 73 Bob, K

As a rule with most all radios, except Elecraft, the radio should show NO ALC action with the correct audio level supplied to the radio. Also, make sure the Speech Processing and TX EQ are nullified o

#WSJTX_config

The PWR slider in WSJT is an audio level adjustment. Of course the more audio to the radio the more power..........to a point. I suggest you not set it to the max value and use more of a mid-range set

#WSJTX_config

As a general rule, when any adjustment is at the lower end of its range, the granularity of the steps is quite wide. As an example, the first 2 or 3 steps off of the zero position can be 6 to 10 dB fo

Not only WSJT-X FT-8 and other data modes, but I'm also astonished at the number of poor quality signals on the ham bands today. Hams need to really pay attention to their signals, the setup of their

As written, the FCC states that PSK31 and Pactor III may be used on 60 meters. Pactor III is a full 2 kHz wide - several dozen FT8 stations can operate within that bandwidth. ... FT8 activity takes pl

SNR depends on the other station's received signal from your station compared to the noise at their location. I place very little weight on the SNR values. 73 Bob, K4TAX

I like it as it adds a bit of precision to selecting a frequency. On the other hand, it is no bother to me as I keep a reasonable height to the waterfall window. 73 Bob, K4TAX

Study the effects of propagation and MUF. It changes from day to night. 73 Bob, K4TAX Virus-free. www.avg.com

Both of my radios have 2 synthesizers. Thus VFO A and VFO B are programmed separately. Thus I ask the question: why do I not have issues? It sure seems many folks are struggling to get things to work.

One reason for using Rig for Split mode takes care of those radios which the A VFO can not change frequency and settle fast enough. Thus using SPLIT and Rig allows VFO A to receive and VFO B to transm

I suppose I don't understand the reason for moving the TX frequency when transmitting. If you call a station, clicking on the station in the RX Frequency box, then you can work the station. If you've

Why not use the TX Freq up and down arrows to the right of the TX Freq box? That moves only the TX Freq and only requires one to use the mouse to increment or decrement the values. 73 Bob, K4TAX Virus

There is the "increment" and "decrement" arrows next to the TX Frequency box. This can be operated with only the mouse. As ham radio is a hobby, I've never found reason to be in a hurry.........unless
