Would you like to connect #WSJT-X to your logger application and another helper app (#GridTracker, JTAlert,...)?

You just need to use a UDP Multicast address (in 224.0.0.1 - 239.255.255.255 range) bound to an network interface (en0 in my case using #linux) in all the apps.

Don't forget to use the same port everywhere!

Thanks to this I can do digital modes (#FT8, #FT4, ...) and, *optionally*, use GridTracker to visualize my contacts.

WSJT-X integration with N3FJP Software

Just had the craziest 90mins on the FT8 weak signals mode working a pileup on 18.100Mhz, totalling 46 contacts, mostly from Europe.

@DJ5CW 🤔 Interesting observation!

I’ve set the QMX up to transmit every 12 minutes, starting with minute 2. Should give :02, :14, :26, :38, :50. Nice and evenly distributed.
Not sure what the 10 % or 20 % duty cycle in WSJT-X and potentially band hopping might do to the statistics.

When watching 10 minute frames of WSPR on 30m, I often have the impression that the 5th two minute slot (starting in the 8th minute) is particularly busy, while the 4th (6th minute) is pretty poorly populated. A quick analysis of all WSPR spots received at SO5CW since August 2024 confirms this:

0: 111k
2: 101k
4: 96k
6: 88k
8: 133k

Wonder if that's some poorly implemented random function in WSJT-X?

Connected my @qrplabs #QMX to my #Linux #desktop using #wsjt and got #ecuador first try running about 4 watts. Thanks Hans for such a fun kit to build, that works great. #AmateurRadio #ft8 #qrp
Many spaces in #AmateurRadio such as #ARRL #Yaesu #WSJT-X either directly or indirectly tell #blind and #disabled #HamRadio ops every day that we just don't belong and we don't count through their ongoing and flagrant unwillingness to consider implementing even the most basic concepts of #inclusive or #universal #design principles in any of their products, programs or services. Let's all agree that it is long past time for that to change! #accessibility #disability #a11y
#WSJT #FT8 is on fire it seems. This is the 5 minute monitor but I'm seeing stuff from mid Africa and mid South America this evening !

My amateur radio #FT8 #WSJT-Z home robot is doing a great job so far.

The radio is an Icom IC-7300, working 40 watts into a 40m vertical (tuned on 40-10m), assisted by a #RaspberryPi4

All the #hamradio contacts on the map are less than one year old.

Is this normal WSJT-X behavior? Anyway to stop this system log file from growing?
Of course never doing FT8 again is an option. #FT8 #HamRadio #WSJT-X
