WSJT-X Improved - an alternative client

[@dg2ycb]

Hi, just a small note. The Ignore List can be edited with any text editor. It is the "ignore.list" file that is created in the log directory when you add a callsign by clicking the "Ignore" button. This means that you can also delete single entries there manually. It is read again when the program is started or a few seconds after a new callsign is added to the ignore list. 73!

Thanks for clarifying that! And thanks for making this version, it's a great improvement! 73

No one thing don't understand about this, but like to see you well 👍

[@LB4FH]

Digimodes isn't for everyone 😉 Thanks for watchin

[@LB5JJ]

Nice overview! For the record, some of these features are also in JTDX!

[@LB4FH]

Thanks, nice to know

Hi Kjetil, Very informative video. Need to get back into WSJT-X and will download 2.7.1 and get it installed. Stay safe. 73 WJ3U

[@LB4FH]

Thanks 😊 Yeah, it's a fun thing to play around with. 73!

[@MaineGirl-W1GRL]

Thanks for that review. I hope to find you on FT8 sometime.

I'm always up for a QSO. 73!

[@Malloc42]

Or an option to possibly, "Ignore completed Call-signs in 1 minute". How many times do you think you've got a QSO finished then realize they're still sending "RR73" or "RR"? You then have to scramble back up and re-hit their last message to resend your "final". Something might have covered up part of your final and they don't record the QSO as properly finished (meantime your client is ignoring "finished" call-sign for a day or two - which is an option I seem to think I'll like).

[@LB4FH]

That's happened more than once, to say it mildly 😑 I usually give people 2-3 tries, then I move on, so that would be a very helpful one to have too

[@mrtechie6810]

Yes, this

[@KS0JD]

Nice review! 73

Thanks!

No, JTDX is way better and more sensitive, plus it has TCI support

[@daviddowning8609]

TCI--what is it??

[@LB4FH]

With all the nice things I hear about JTDX I guess I'll have to try that out too 😉

[@sligoquadcopter]

@@daviddowning8609 TCI is a transport protocol developed by Expert Electronics and now used in a variety of SDR, logging, contest, and digimode software. Such as CAT and audio is transferred without the need for virtual com ports and without the need to use the Windows audio stack as Flex Radio's DAX does. The result is seamless integration and, on FT modes, the cleanest output.

@@daviddowning8609 No comm ports, no additional cables, in my case I user it with my SunSDR

No more development of JTDX so I do not see any benefits plus I compared both, also under difficult conditions, sometimes JTDX decodes some more stations, sometimes WSJT-X (improved). But what I can say after some month is, that WSJT-X produces A WAY LESS false decodes than JTDX. But it is no problem to use both programmes, even with the same log file, JTDX does not have the new Super Fox mode so if you want to benefit from it you HAVE to use WSJT-X. 73s
