Locked Bug in WSJT-X 2.3.0 rc2


Lance Collister, W7GJ <w7gj@...>
 

In FT8, the TX is disabled after I send 73, EVEN THOUGH THAT OPTION IS NOT CHECKED IN THE SETTINGS screen...

This is the way it works.   That setting is only for the non-semiautomatic modes.

That is very frustrating, especially when operating portable. I would REALLY LIKE to be able to have the choice of the program continue on to XMIT CQ, especially when I am out aiming the antenna and come back in to find that the program has basically turned off :-( This used to work much better.

I don’t find it a problem to turn ”Enable TX” back on after logging a contact. I might lose 30s of transmission time if I do it a second or two late, but ho hum.

I don't understand why you'd want to turn the beam and call CQ simultaneously.

He’s a rover a lot of the time. Not everyone can reach over and tell the rotor to go somewhere. It has to be done manually, sometimes with ropes, etc

Automatic transmission is not a good practice. The program could make 20 QSOs if it is calling CQ when you are outside.

That would turn it into an automatic machine, which is not the intent.   The authors expect someone to be in front of the computer to control the rig.

Michael,

Not so, automation can go from CQ to a QSO, if the Call first is ticked,
until logging phase of the QSO. Automation stops there and user needs either
to log QSO or just re-enable TX for the next transmission.
