locked Decode Information #FST4
|
Last night on 630m FST4 I noted the following information to the right of the normal decode. With decodes between -21 and -24 there were several times when the line also included ? a3. One decode of -21 included ? a1. I haven't yet seen a ? a2. What does this information imply?
Finally is there an advantage to switching from the 32 bit version to the 64 bit version? I am running Windows 7 Pro 64 bit. If so do I need to uninstall the 32 bit version?

Search the WSJTX help file for "a1" and you'll see the meanings. Section 12.1 I don't believe there's any specific advantage between 32 or 64-bit that's been touted. Don't know if anybody has done any benchmarks on decoding speed for example. Mike W9MDB

Hi Rob, see the WSJT-X User Guide for information on the extra information appended to decoded message lines: https://physics.princeton.edu/pulsar/k1jt/wsjtx-doc/wsjtx-main-2.5.1.html#DECODER_NOTES Although you can choose to run either the 32- or 64-bit version of WSJT-X on an MS Windows 64-bit operating system, there is a noticeable performance improvement with the 64-bit version. That comes at a small memory footprint cost but on almost all systems that is of negligible impact. 73
