Hi, Wondering if someone can help. I packed all my gear away for three months and recently set it back up. Now when I change frequency band in WSJT-X using cat control, the rig momentarily flickers be

FT8 is a weak signal mode. At the height of the Sun spot cycle when all the fun starts, I'll be moving to SSB and some of the other digital modes where you can actually talk to people. I enjoy FT8 by

I was confused about this when I first started out with WSJT-X as well. Does anyone know why there is a WSPR filter in PSK Reporter and why a handful of monitors can be seen on the map? I can see my t

Anyone got to the bottom of these false decodes? It seems to happen to me at least once per day This morning I got this one 210113_095500 7.074 Rx FT8 -17 -2.3 516 2E0MNV EO8QWQ/R R RC30 ? a2 Yesterda

Thank you, I never knew about the ALL.txt file. That could be useful. There have been a few occasions where I'm not in club log or HRD log even though I was 100% convinced that we had a QSO that day.

I know it's not necessary to wait for a 73 before logging the QSO, but you are correct. Many people (not me) believe that they need a 73 before logging and they choose not log the QSO if they don't ge

The readme file is not copied to the user's system when wsjtx is installed. readme can be found inside the wsjtx .dmg install package which you download. Hope this helps. Austin 2E0MNV

Thank you I am using a Mac so JT Alert is not available. I was considering JT Bridge, but not sure if it's quite the same thing. I periodically check all the bands for FT4, but 30m stands out as being

Just because I have sent RR73 does not mean he has received it. There have been occasions when the operator has refused to log me because he did not get my RR73. The issue is, WSJTX stops transmitting

I never seem to hear any FT4 on 30m? Do I have the correct frequency? 10.140MHz? I listen every day and I'm not hearing any FT4 on the 30m band. Is it not a thing? Austin 2E0MNV

#FT4

One thing that has been annoying me lately is that once wsjtx has sent RR73, the TX stops. By the time you get that next one out, it's too late and the DX station is working someone else. I've lost ma

If you are already transmitting and receiving using WSPR, then you are already on track for using the FT8 mode; there is not much more to set up. First of all, check your audio settings are optimal, w

Sorry if you already answered on the grid tracker forum. I must have missed the alert for it. I understand, it's for a new callsign I've never worked before. I tried to turn it off in call roster like

Apologies if this is out of the scope of the forum, so I will take a slap on the hand if it is. It's just I have a grid tracker question and I think someone must think I'm pulling their leg, because I

I use everything in Dark mode, my entire Mac OS X, Safari and WSJT-X. When you run WSJT-X in dark mode though, you have to set the colours up manually. Some of the highlighting for me was white text o

I've noticed that this happens too with my FT450D. Sometimes it even keys the TX and I have to pull the power to make it let go
