| 
 |  | ||||||
| Third-party individuals (i.e., others not part of the WSJT development |  | ||||||
| team) have been compiling WSJT-X from the open source code and making |  | ||||||
| unauthorized "releases" of their builds.  I do NOT reccommend use of |  | ||||||
| unauthorized builds on the air.  If a program revision has been released |  | ||||||
| in an official way, you will see it listed here. |  | ||||||
| 
 |  | ||||||
| If you operate with an unauthorized "rXXXX" code revisions in our |  | ||||||
| experimental code branch you have no idea what you've got.  Quite |  | ||||||
| possibly, the program was built from an intermediate temporary "save" |  | ||||||
| of various files, and was not even supposed to produce a usable |  | ||||||
| program.  Your observetions about what works or does not work are then |  | ||||||
| worse than useless -- they waste your time and ours. |  | ||||||
| 
 |  | ||||||
| So please, PLEASE, *PLEASE*: use *authorized*, "released* revisions |  | ||||||
| of this still-in-development software, like the revisions described here. |  | ||||||
| 
 |  | ||||||
| *ALSO:* If you choose to try an experimental release of JTMSK, please |  | ||||||
| accept the responsibility of reporting on your results.  You can send |  | ||||||
| reports to the "wsjtgroup" reflector, wsjtgroup@yahoogroups.com, or |  | ||||||
| email them directly to me.  All suggestions for improvements are |  | ||||||
| welcome! |  | ||||||
| 
 |  | ||||||
| Bug reports should include details on how to reproduce the undesirable |  | ||||||
| program behavior.  Reports on decoding performance are especially |  | ||||||
| useful when accompanied by example *.wav files with signals that |  | ||||||
| you think should have decoded, but did not. |  | ||||||

| New alpha release of experimental WSJT-X v1.6.1, r5910 |  | ||||||
| ------------------------------------------------------ |  | ||||||
| Changes since revision 5889 include the following: |  | ||||||
| 
 |  | ||||||
| 1. Improved behavior for auto-QSY with "CQ nnn ..." feature.  (May not |  | ||||||
| be exactly correct, yet, for all radios.  Please report if you find |  | ||||||
| problems with your rig.) |  | ||||||
| 
 |  | ||||||
| 2. Allow optional use of Wide Graph in fast modes. |  | ||||||
| 
 |  | ||||||
| 3. Add UTC labels to Fast Graph spectrograms. |  | ||||||
| 
 |  | ||||||
| 4. Display correct DXCC entiry for "CQ nnn ..." messages. |  | ||||||
| 
 |  | ||||||
| 5. Implement "Save Decoded" for fast modes. |  | ||||||
| 
 |  | ||||||
| 6. Select Tx6 when "CQ Rx nnn" is enabled. |  | ||||||
| 
 |  | ||||||
| 7. Fix bug in setting of TRperiod after switch to ISCAT mode. |  | ||||||
| 
 |  | ||||||
| 8. Display proper symbol '&' in Tx messages in JTMSK mode. |  | ||||||

| ----------------- |  | ||||||
| 
 |  | ||||||
| New alpha release of experimental WSJT-X v1.6.1, r5889 |  | ||||||
| ------------------------------------------------------ |  | ||||||
| 
 |  | ||||||
| A principal new feature in this release is designed to promote the use |  | ||||||
| of an agreed "calling frequency" for transmissions of the form |  | ||||||
| 
 |  | ||||||
|   CQ 265 K1ABC FN42 |  | ||||||
| 
 |  | ||||||
| signifying that K1ABC will listen for replies on 50.265 (or 144.265, |  | ||||||
| or whatever) and will complete the QSO there.  The feature uses the |  | ||||||
| rig-control features of WSJT-X to handle the necessary frequency |  | ||||||
| switching. |  | ||||||
| 
 |  | ||||||
| ########################################################################## |  | ||||||
| Changes since revision 5865 include the following: |  | ||||||
| 
 |  | ||||||
| 1. New features that allow automatic rig control when you transmit or |  | ||||||
| respond to messages of the form "CQ 265 K1ABC FN42" on an agreed |  | ||||||
| calling frequency.  This feature should be especially useful for |  | ||||||
| meteor scatter. |  | ||||||
| 
 |  | ||||||
| 2. Yellow-highlighted "Tx" messages in the right text window are now |  | ||||||
| properly labeled with 6-digit UTC (hhmmss) in all fast modes. |  | ||||||
| 
 |  | ||||||
| 3. Fixed a bug (introduced in r5865) that inhibited transmitting in |  | ||||||
| JT4 mode. |  | ||||||
| 
 |  | ||||||
| 4. Fixed a bug that caused Wide Graph to continue issuing green |  | ||||||
| separator lines at short (e.g. 15 s) intervals after you have switched |  | ||||||
| to a slow mode. |  | ||||||
| 
 |  | ||||||
| 5. Fixed several more GUI appearance bugs associated with changing |  | ||||||
| modes or submodes. |  | ||||||
| 
 |  | ||||||
| 6. Fixed a bug in which double-clicking on the Fast Graph could cause |  | ||||||
| program crashes. |  | ||||||
| 
 |  | ||||||
| 7. Fixed a bug that sometimes caused "high tones" to be emitted in |  | ||||||
| JTMSK mode. |  | ||||||
| 
 |  | ||||||
| ####################################################################### |  | ||||||
| Here's a brief description of how to use the "CQ nnn ..." features. |  | ||||||
| 
 |  | ||||||
| 1. On program startup, go to the Settings | General tab and tick the |  | ||||||
| box labeled 'Rx frequency offset with "CQ nnn ..."' |  | ||||||
| 
 |  | ||||||
| 2. Select JTMSK mode and 50.280 (or your some other agreed calling |  | ||||||
| frequency) from the drop-down band menu.  Remember that this menu is |  | ||||||
| not pre-populated with preferred frequencies for all modes on all |  | ||||||
| bands. Use Settings | Frequencies to add your desired modes and |  | ||||||
| frequencies to the list. |  | ||||||
| 
 |  | ||||||
| 3. Tick the unlabeled checkbox just under the "Report: spinner to |  | ||||||
| activate the "CQ Rx nnn" spinner.  Set this control to your desired |  | ||||||
| QSO frequency in kHz above the nominal band edge.  On 6 meters, for |  | ||||||
| example, "265" means "50.265". |  | ||||||
| 
 |  | ||||||
| 4. Your transceiver dial frequency should now show 50.265.  Changes to |  | ||||||
| the "CQ Rx nnn" spinner value should be reflected immediately in the |  | ||||||
| transceiver dial frequency, the displayed value on the WSJT-X main |  | ||||||
| screen, and in Tx message #6, the "CQ nnn... " message. |  | ||||||
| 
 |  | ||||||
| 5. When you transmit the Tx6 message, the Tx frequency will be set at |  | ||||||
| the calling frequency.  Otherwise (when receiving, or when |  | ||||||
| transmitting any of the messages Tx1 through Tx5) the offset frequency |  | ||||||
| (50.265 in my example) will be used. |  | ||||||
| 
 |  | ||||||
| 6. If you double-click on a received "CQ nnn ..." message on the |  | ||||||
| calling frequency, your rig will QSY to specified response frequency, |  | ||||||
| e.g. 50.265, for both Rx and Tx. |  | ||||||
| 
 |  | ||||||
| 7. To go back to listening on the calling frequency, uncheck the box |  | ||||||
| that activated the "CQ Rx nnn" spinner. |  | ||||||
| 
 |  | ||||||
| ####################################################################### |  | ||||||
| 
 |  | ||||||
| Fair warning: I have not yet tested all possible combinations of |  | ||||||
| "Split Operation" configuration (i.e., "None", "Rig", and "Fake it"). |  | ||||||
| If you normally use Split operation, that should be OK for the "CQ |  | ||||||
| nnn ..." feature. |  | ||||||
| 
 |  | ||||||
| 
 |  | ||||||
| As always, please report any bugs that you find in r5889, including |  | ||||||
| pertinent details on your settings and the exact series of steps |  | ||||||
| required to reproduce the bug. |  | ||||||

| New alpha release of experimental WSJT-X v1.6.1, r5865 |  | ||||||
| ------------------------------------------------------ |  | ||||||
| 
 |  | ||||||
| This alpha release of WSJT-X includes major improvements to the JTMSK |  | ||||||
| decoder.  Changes since revision 5823 include the following: |  | ||||||
| 
 |  | ||||||
| 1. On-screen controls labeled "Rx nnnn Hz" and "F Tol" (Rx frequency |  | ||||||
| and tolerance) now function as expected in JTMSK mode.  The frequency |  | ||||||
| search range can be up to 500 Hz, but note that sensitivity is |  | ||||||
| necessarily reduced for signals off frequency by more than about 250 |  | ||||||
| Hz.  Normally you should leave Rx Freq set at 1500 Hz; suitable values |  | ||||||
| for F Tol are 100 to 500 Hz. |  | ||||||
| 
 |  | ||||||
| 2. The JTMSK decoder now makes good use of strong, short pings (as |  | ||||||
| short as 0.1 s) as well as weak pings several times longer. |  | ||||||
| 
 |  | ||||||
| 3. Improved calculation of S/N and frequency of decoded signals. |  | ||||||
| 
 |  | ||||||
| 4. Unified appearance of window titles on all non-modal windows. |  | ||||||
| 
 |  | ||||||
| 5. CW ID is disabled (for now, at least) when operating in any of the |  | ||||||
| WSJT fast modes. |  | ||||||
| 
 |  | ||||||
| 6. In WSPR mode, display of "Receiving ... <band>" messages is |  | ||||||
| disabled when band-hopping is not in use. |  | ||||||
| 
 |  | ||||||
| 7. Fixed several bugs affecting status and visibility of certain |  | ||||||
| on-screen controls after changes in operating mode. |  | ||||||
| 
 |  | ||||||
| 8. Fixed a bug allowing display of duplicate decodes for the same |  | ||||||
| signal. |  | ||||||
| 
 |  | ||||||
| 9. Fixed a bug preventing compilation on 64-bit systems, and cleaned |  | ||||||
| up some harmless compiler warnings. |  | ||||||

| 		Summary Description of JTMSK Protocol |  | ||||||
| 
 |  | ||||||
| JTMSK uses the same standard message structure as slow modes JT4, JT9, |  | ||||||
| and JT65.  User information is "source encoded" to 72 bits. A 15-bit |  | ||||||
| CRC is appended and a convolutional code with constraint length K=13 |  | ||||||
| and rate r=1/2 is applied, making a total of (72+15+12)*2 = 198 |  | ||||||
| information bits.  Three copies of the "Barker-11" code and three |  | ||||||
| even-parity bits are added for synchronization, making a total of |  | ||||||
| 198+33+3 = 234 channel symbols.  Modulation uses a constant-envelope, |  | ||||||
| continuous-phase "minimum-shift keying" (MSK) waveform, with tone |  | ||||||
| frequencies of 1000 and 2000 Hz. |  | ||||||

| 
 |  | ||||||
| This experimental version of WSJT-X introduces a new fast mode called |  | ||||||
| JTMSK.  The letters MS, of course, imply meteor scatter; the three |  | ||||||
| letters MSK mean "Minimum Shift Keying", the modulation scheme used in |  | ||||||
| this mode. |  | ||||||
| 
 |  | ||||||
| Revision 5823 also includes a number of (mostly minor) bug fixes |  | ||||||
| relative to r5789. |  | ||||||
| 
 |  | ||||||
| IMPORTANT: If you choose to try JTMSK, please accept the |  | ||||||
| responsibility of reporting on your results.  You can send reports to |  | ||||||
| the "wsjtgroup" reflector, wsjtgroup@yahoogroups.com or email them |  | ||||||
| directly to me.  All suggestions for improvements are welcome!  Bug |  | ||||||
| reports should include details on how to reproduce the undesirable |  | ||||||
| program behavior. |  | ||||||
| 
 |  | ||||||
| The present JTMSK decoder has been optimized for short pings.  It does |  | ||||||
| not yet do a wide search for proper frequency alignment; you and your |  | ||||||
| QSO partner need to be "on frequency" to within +/- 100 Hz or better. |  | ||||||
| The decoder does not (yet) attempt to make optimal use of weak, slowly |  | ||||||
| varying signals.  These and other characteristics may be improved in |  | ||||||
| coming revisions. |  | ||||||
| 
 |  | ||||||
| KNOWN BUG: At present you should use T/R sequence lengths 15 s in |  | ||||||
| JTMSK mode.  If you have a program crash, open Windows Task Manager, |  | ||||||
| select the "Processes" tab, right-click on wsjtx.exe, and select "End |  | ||||||
| Process Tree".  Then restart the program. |  | ||||||
| 
 |  | ||||||
| I view JTMSK as a candidate for replacing both FSK441 and JTMS for all |  | ||||||
| meteor scatter work.  JTMSK has the major advantage of including |  | ||||||
| strong forward error correction (FEC), similar in usage to the schemes |  | ||||||
| used for many years in JT4, JT9, and JT65.  The structure of user |  | ||||||
| messages and the format of minimal QSOs is also identical to those |  | ||||||
| other modes.  But JTMSK is very fast, transmitting its full encoded |  | ||||||
| message content in 0.117 s, in a 2 kHz bandwidth.  JTMSK therefore |  | ||||||
| makes much better use of short pings than (for example) JT9H can do. |  | ||||||
| 
 |  | ||||||
| The Tx waveform of JTMSK has been carefully designed to have a number |  | ||||||
| of desirable features.  All messages are exactly the same length: 72 |  | ||||||
| bits of user information are followed by a 15-bit CRC and encoded into |  | ||||||
| 198 channel bits with a convolutional code (constraint length K=13, |  | ||||||
| rate r=1/2).  Three sequences of the "Barker-11" code are added, along |  | ||||||
| with three parity bits, making a total of 234 channel bits in each |  | ||||||
| message.  The MSK symbols for these bits are transmitted at 2000 baud, |  | ||||||
| and the full encoded message is repeated every 117 ms. |  | ||||||
| 
 |  | ||||||
| A summary description of modulation parameters for all WSJT(-X) modes |  | ||||||
| is shown in a table posted here: |  | ||||||
| http://physics.princeton.edu/pulsar/K1JT/wsjt_modes.txt and |  | ||||||
| illustrated graphically here: |  | ||||||

| --------------- |  | ||||||
| 
 |  | ||||||
| Since its origin in the dark ages (ca. 2001) WSJT has supported "fast" |  | ||||||
| modes (designed for meteor scatter, etc.) and "slow" modes (optimized |  | ||||||
| for EME and other weak-signal propagation types).  The most recent new |  | ||||||
| mode, JT9, now has *both* fast and slow submodes.   |  | ||||||
| 
 |  | ||||||
| JT9A (the "original" JT9) is like JT65 and JT4: its T/R sequences are |  | ||||||
| one minute long, and its primary goal is best possible sensitivity for |  | ||||||
| very weak, approximately steady signals.  The new experimental JT9 |  | ||||||
| submodes use the same message structure, encoding, and modulation type |  | ||||||
| (9-tone FSK) as JT9A, but wider tone spacing and (optionally) faster |  | ||||||
| keying rates. |  | ||||||
| 
 |  | ||||||
| You can download an experimental version of WSJT-X (v1.6.1, r5779) here: |  | ||||||
| http://physics.princeton.edu/pulsar/K1JT/wsjtx-1.6.1-r5779-win32.exe |  | ||||||
| 
 |  | ||||||
| The fast submodes currently being tested, JT9E - JT9H, have been found |  | ||||||
| highly effective for meteors and ionoscatter propagation on 6 and 10 |  | ||||||
| meters.  Sensitivity is similar to ISCAT, or slightly better. |  | ||||||
| Decoding is much more reliable, because the JT9 protocol includes |  | ||||||
| strong forward error correction.  Decoding results are like those for |  | ||||||
| all the WSJT "slow" modes: you should see messages exactly as they |  | ||||||
| were transmitted, or nothing at all.  A potential side benefit is |  | ||||||
| automatic reporting of decodes to PSKreporter. |  | ||||||
| 
 |  | ||||||
| For details on the modulation parameters of the JT9 submodes, see the |  | ||||||
| table posted at |  | ||||||
| http://physics.princeton.edu/pulsar/K1JT/wsjt_modes.txt. |  | ||||||
| 
 |  | ||||||
| WSJT-X v1.6.1 r5779 has the following changes from r5769: |  | ||||||
| 
 |  | ||||||
| 1. Numerous bug fixes |  | ||||||
| 2. Double-click on decoded message now behaves properly |  | ||||||
| 3. Faster decoding (further optimization still to come) |  | ||||||
| 4. Decoded text is highlighted as in WSJT-X slow modes |  | ||||||
| 5. Optional auto-sequencing |  | ||||||
| 
 |  | ||||||
| Fair warning: auto-sequencing is basically functional, but scarcely |  | ||||||
| tested.  Please watch what it is doing, and tell us how you think it |  | ||||||
| should be improved! |  | ||||||
| 
 |  | ||||||
| If you use WSJT-X also for other modes and other purposes, you may |  | ||||||
| want to save several different sets of configuration settings.  In |  | ||||||
| that case it's convenient to use the "-r xxx" option and start the |  | ||||||
| program from a command-prompt window.  For example: |  | ||||||
| 
 |  | ||||||
| C:\Users\joe> cd \wsjt\wsjtx\bin |  | ||||||
| C:\WSJT\wsjtx\bin> wsjtx -r xxx |  | ||||||
| 
 |  | ||||||
| ... where "xxx" can be anything you like, for example "ISCAT", |  | ||||||
| "FAST9", etc. |  | ||||||
| 
 |  | ||||||
| Proper configuration for the JT9 fast modes includes the following |  | ||||||
| settings: |  | ||||||
| 
 |  | ||||||
| On the Settings | General tab: |  | ||||||
| 
 |  | ||||||
|  - check "Enable VHF/UHF/Microwave features" |  | ||||||
| 
 |  | ||||||
| Main window settings: |  | ||||||
| 
 |  | ||||||
|  - Mode JT9 |  | ||||||
|  - Tx 700 Hz |  | ||||||
|  - Rx 700 Hz |  | ||||||
|  - Sync 0 |  | ||||||
|  - Submode G  ... or E, F, and H (H not legal in US on 10m) |  | ||||||
|  - Tick "Fast" |  | ||||||
|  - T/R 30 s     (also 5, 10, 15 s) |  | ||||||
|  - FTol 500 |  | ||||||
| 
 |  | ||||||
| Please keep in mind that this is an experimental version of WSJT-X. |  | ||||||
| It still has some rough edges, and no doubt some bugs.  Your feedback |  | ||||||
| will be much appreciated, and will help to make the program better! |  | ||||||
