30m FT4 6 messages

30M is fairly limited, it seems, because not a lot of people have antennas for the band. Much like 60M. Of course the ones that do, seem to stick to FT8. 73 - John - N7GHZ

Amos, Most of what little activity I have seen occurs between about 800 to 1200 so I set Flow at 500 and Fhi at 1300. Start with the NB set to 0, but gradually increase it as you gain experience. You

Hi Amos, where possible we will not recommend frequencies or modes, it's just too difficult to satisfy all parties. I suggest you coordinate with other users and find slots and modes that work for you

Contesting with a compound callsign

According to the WSJT-X documentation, contest-mode using a compound callsign is not supported in FT4/FT8, but I found a workaround, which may be of interest. This applies to calls like S5/PA3BHF, but

There are interesting discussions on what constitutes a valid FT4/8 QSO and what doesn't. Your logger logs a QSO when you send 73 (or when you force it to log), but that does not mean the receiver act

It is very common on both FT4 and FT8. I have some callers start with a signal report and no initial call. It still works and they end up in the log. 73, N0AN Hasan
