FT8 problems on 17 & 30 M
Locked
 
|
Perhaps this is a software problem, but I thought I'd start here. Using K3
(s/n 68xx), SignalLink USB and WSJT-X. Everything works fine on FT8 on all bands but 17 & 30. I can decode on those bands, but there is no xmit. The rig keys OK and goes into xmit but there is no output. Radio performs normally on CW and SSB on these bands. I use the same TX Data mode on all bands. Thought maybe there might be a hidden menu item that I might have screwed up. Anyway thanks for any help.

If split is on, make sure software did not set tx freq out of band.

How much SSB do you do on 30 meters?
I'd start by re-checking the Data/submode on the two bands.

Interesting question. But I doubt W0RSR operates SSB on 30 :) Or I hope he does not. A better question would be what software are you running, and on which operating system, e.g., Windows, MacOS or linux? Since WSJT-X is the only software package I know that supports FT-8 I doubt it is a radio issue. Or at least I don’t have any issues with FT-8 on any band using WSJT-X RC2.
Have the preferences MacOS/ Windows configuration been updated since the WSJT-X upgrade to RC2? WSJT-X is slightly quirky as I had an issue with pervious versions with JT9. On some bands it worked, and on some it didn’t. A reset of preferences, i.e., a complete reset of preferences brought it back. I’m on MacOS so your mileage may vary.
