Some people are interested in propagation, and repeat contacts definitely are an asset to assessing band conditions over time. Also, some people touch base and develop friendships. If one doesn't want

All noises blankers are not the same and all noise blankers do different things on different modes. My experience: Wideband DSP Noise Blanking on SDR Console is downright amazing for meteor scatter mo

14070 and 14.0715 are PSK frequencies and Olivia freqs. Please don't deprive them of their last watering hole on 20m. 73, N0AN

#frequency

Dave, I've seen the option to use a GPS Rx in BktTimeSync, but have not used it. A bunch of us have used NMEATime2, which the author has stated is monotonic, and from all our tests, is quite accurate

My comments about bandwidth and power budgets were limited to LEO hamsats, not the geostationary bird, 73, N0AN

#FT8

Use of steady carrier, 100% duty cycle modes on the Linear birds is frowned upon, for two reasons: 1. FM- Occupied bandwidth is unacceptable and power budget is selfish. 2. The power budgets of the bi

I have found that if I make a change to the Sound Settings in WSJT-X, I have to close and reopen the program, they don't always accept 'live' changes. 73, N0AN

#transmit

Kermit, If the other station is in high demand, they finish by sending a single RR73. With that transmission, they log you. You are in their log. The fact that you missed it, is not their problem. If

F/H mode assumes you are going to run on a different frequency from the standard pre-defined frequencies. This was done because it was deemed undesirable to run F/H mode on the standard frequencies, a

Also RC6 here, although downloaded a few days ago. I think there was a hamlib fix since then, but have not downloaded since very early RC6. 73, N0AN Hasan

Here is a recent sample of the error log, Bill: [SYSLOG][2021-09-08 11:29:54.060941][12:29:07.539049][warning] Detected dropped audio source samples: 912 (0.019 S) [SYSLOG][2021-09-08 11:40:28.319469]

If I were to make a WAG, I would think it is a logic problem that crept in, cuz it used to work last year without dropping out (with Tune selected in the BandHop Sked) Hasan

No, no errors at all, see an occasional audio stream error, nothing else Hasan

Bill, I found the correlation I was looking for. If I tell WSPR Schedule to use the TUNE function (to make the autotuner adjust the antenna SWR on each band prior to transmitting), the ENABLE Tx light

#IssueReport #WSPR

Last two days, it has behaved normally. Looks like it was a random glitch, possibly cleared by a reboot. 73, N0AN Hasan

Thanks Bill, I'll keep watch for it the next time it happens. It ran for two hours without that error this morning, but was doing it frequently yesterday 73, N0AN Hasan

If you have dedicated USB sound devices (like a cheap dongle) and you assign WSJT-X to them, you won't have Win10 Pro update problems UNLESS....you plug in or unplug a new USB device, in which case th

#txaudio

It would be a good idea to check with the owners of any particular satellite to find out if they allow FT4 or any other constant carrier mode on their Linear birds. It is very hard on the power budget
