May 31, 2020, 7:08 p.m. Only 6 new logs here, 12 total. There was only RDS on 1 station with the weak signals during the opening. de Jon ON FN03
May 31, 2020, 7:07 p.m. Nice logs, WRH. I guess my K-Love on 98.9 was WLXB, and not WLFV in VA. de Jon ON FN03
May 31, 2020, 6:51 p.m. congrats on the catches yesterday, Bill. Nice log de N8UUP Bill MI EN82ee
May 31, 2020, 6:26 p.m. Still had SDR logs despite 2 boo-boos : #1 turned off recording accidentally & still thought it was on, #2 recorded 2 segments w/gain too high on Airspy - overload. de WRH ON FN03

May 31, 2020, 6:03 p.m. [17:35] I'm pretty sure KHSD is a warbler. de WRH ON FN03
May 31, 2020, 5:35 p.m. [16:50] I only see one DTV 5 pilot that *warbles* and I am in proximity to KHSD and WOI. I guess I will never know who it is. de Jim-T MO EM37
May 31, 2020, 4:56 p.m. [13:15] 162 MHz skip was observed in MA yesterday. de WRH ON FN03

May 31, 2020, 3:42 p.m. Anywho....881 miles ain't to shoddy de Dennis VA FM18
May 31, 2020, 3:41 p.m. I actually had 2 very strong pilts both were narly equal in strength depending on the antenna direction but near the time of the decode, the other one disappeared and the Warbling pilot satayed there very strong. de Dennis VA FM18
May 31, 2020, 3:26 p.m. Thanks Dennis. I see it here ALL THE TIME. Plus I have three other DTV 5 pilots, no clue who they are. de Jim-T MO EM37
May 31, 2020, 3:26 p.m. That warbling pilot I posted a screen sghot of sometimes got down to -62 dBm but wasn't quite enough to decode. While I was logging WOI FM It decoded for just a few seconds de Dennis VA FM18
May 31, 2020, 3:24 p.m. [1431] JimT YES absolutely de Dennis VA FM18

May 31, 2020, 2:47 p.m. 1416... I could use some of that short-hop Es... Still several low-ch DTVs in the 350-600 mi range I need to get de Ed W-KY EM56
May 31, 2020, 2:31 p.m. [14:10] So the DTV 5 warbling pilot is WOI? Were you able to match that to a decode? de Jim-T MO EM37
May 31, 2020, 2:26 p.m. Hoping to get at least one of the LD 3's in Texas this season before local WGGN takes over DT 3 de Andrew OH EN91
May 31, 2020, 2:22 p.m. The Es seems to be weakening, but MUF is still at least channel 3 de Andrew OH EN91
May 31, 2020, 2:21 p.m. That sux....So my best DTV catch stays in my Screen caps and my logbook. de Dennis VA FM18
May 31, 2020, 2:20 p.m. Just a random thought....yesterday I saw a kinda cool license plate "CQDX73) de Dennis VA FM18
May 31, 2020, 2:18 p.m. [14:17] Dennis, I don't think that's possible if you're using both tuners to scan. de Andrew OH EN91
May 31, 2020, 2:17 p.m. Is there some way, with Ascan, to have bolth tuners on the Homerun box report to Rabbitears but use the second tuner to search manually? I know Ascan will use both tuners but It would be nice to be able to report manual catches. de Dennis VA FM18
May 31, 2020, 2:16 p.m. I found out that my capture of WMDE @ 326 miles was just 9 miles above the shortest hop DTV Es record of 317 miles. But the record was on channel 3, and I did it on channel 5. de Andrew OH EN91
May 31, 2020, 2:12 p.m. I think you were the one who asked me yesterday if I was checking for DTV pilote. I want to thank you for that.because that's how I caught itg. I also had a channel 4 almost as strong in the same direction. de Dennis VA FM18
May 31, 2020, 2:11 p.m. I was camped out on the 2nd tuner de Dennis VA FM18
May 31, 2020, 2:10 p.m. Unfortunately my Rabbitears scanner didn't catch it but I was camped out on channel 5 because of that odd oscillating Pilot which turned out to be WOI> de Dennis VA FM18
May 31, 2020, 2:09 p.m. [0015}En35id : There is a WDCN-LP in Fairfax, VA and I also hear WMTO=Streetz 87.7 from Moyock, NC Both are on ATV6 de Dennis VA FM18

May 31, 2020, 1:42 p.m. I'd say dead air 13 will eventually become WPXS de Ed W-KY EM56
May 31, 2020, 1:41 p.m. I know it's not WHBQ... The box just displays it becase that's the only ch 13 info it has on hand de Ed W-KY EM56
May 31, 2020, 1:36 p.m. Ed, it's not WHBQ. I've watched this signal for over a week. Nothing from Memphis. de indysteve IN EM69
May 31, 2020, 1:36 p.m. I'm hoping to make a 2 meter contact via Es. I'm active on 2 meter FT8, but the MUF didn't reach that high here. It was over my head. de Andrew OH EN91

May 31, 2020, 1:15 p.m. I am receiving 6 meter FT8 from mostly all Texas, so that narrows down the area where my DT 3 is coming from de Andrew OH EN91
May 31, 2020, 1:15 p.m. Anyone catch the highest MUF observed from yesterday? Would imagine 2 meters was open if only briefly de N8UUP Bill MI EN82ee

May 31, 2020, 1:54 a.m. One thing I have noticed, most of the TV/FM towers are almost 30 miles east of me. Sometimes the signals are getting out and I just don't hear any Es at my QTH. Not sure why. de Jim-T MO EM37
May 31, 2020, 1:52 a.m. Antenna was straight east (not sure why I typed north). I was distracted by DTV signals that wouldn't decode but kept checking FM and only had an unID on 94.1 de Jim-T MO EM37
May 31, 2020, 1:51 a.m. [00:52] Nick, I don't understand either. I use an AirSpy HF with the FM antenna @ 20' with rotator. Most of the time the antenna was straight north. Didn't hear much on FM Es at all. de Jim-T MO EM37

May 26, 2020, 6:07 p.m. Correct. DXMaps uses some sort of algorithm which, based on a 50 mHz contact, 'predicts' the MUF for that path. Gabriel is very protective of that algorithm. de Russ-WB2BJH PA FN20id
May 26, 2020, 6 p.m. DXMaps exaggerates in some cases when spotters post a contact as Es when it is really Ms or Tr contact. Or the Grid is put in wrong on the report de N8UUP Bill MI EN82ee

May 25, 2020, 4:31 p.m. Maybe I'm just a little dense but I still don't understand what you're watching. Are we talking about watching the HDhomerun_config.gui and watching the signal strength? I have a DTV2 51 miles away and it can come screaming in at -70 dBm at 100% signal strength and most of the time it won't decode. de Dennis VA FM18

May 25, 2020, 4:24 p.m. That reading is more important than the strength of the narrow pilot. de WRH ON FN03
May 25, 2020, 4:24 p.m. Ex: for digital, the pilot is much stronger than the rest of the digital signal. The HDHR needs the main digital part to be >15 dB SNR to decode. de WRH ON FN03
May 25, 2020, 4:22 p.m. OK...understood, but how are you distinguishing an analog from a digital signal? de Dennis VA FM18
May 25, 2020, 4:20 p.m. Carriers and pilots are only part of the signal. de WRH ON FN03
May 25, 2020, 4:20 p.m. Analog 2 and digital 2 both use the same 6 MHz wide channel 2 : 54-60 MHz. de WRH ON FN03
May 25, 2020, 4:19 p.m. I guess I'm still not understanding. I also use the second tuner for manual tuning but analog 2 and digital 2 are different frequencies. Maybe I'm missing something. de Dennis VA FM18
May 25, 2020, 4:15 p.m. I run one tuner for scanning, which goes to Rabbitears, while I use the other tuner for manual tuning, like leaving it on ch. 2 and watchng signal meter. Plus, Rabbitears listing as ch. is scanned will indicate the sig. strength when it was actually scanned. de indysteve IN EM69

May 19, 2020, 2:09 p.m. But at the same time, a weak pilot frequency is not as exciting as seeing actual audio and video on your TV screen. That's what gets many DXers in this group excited. But many DXers only care about the ID, and that's it. de Andrew OH EN91
May 19, 2020, 2:07 p.m. What's nice about FT8 is that it was intentionally designed for the DXer. It transmits the bare minimum information needed to ID the weak signal. Now if TV stations actually cared about DXers (lol), we'd actually have that valuable ID information embeded in the TV pilot frequency. de Andrew OH EN91
May 19, 2020, 2:04 p.m. FT8 is weak signal DX that allows you in on propagation that other modes can't. I don't see why that isn't DXing. If DT pilots had CW IDs, we'd see a ton of reports here. de WRH ON FN03
May 19, 2020, 2:02 p.m. Some DXers like watching/listening to distant radio stations, others like studying propagation, others like both. There's room for everyone. de WRH ON FN03
May 19, 2020, 1:53 p.m. I'm just trying to let you know that from my experience with transmitting on 2 meter FT8, a weak signal mode like that can detect a signal normally at up to 400 miles. And that coincidentally is similar to the coverage of a TV pilot frequency also. As you know, you can be seeing a strong pilot for a long time and not get any actual identifiable material on the TV tuner. de Andrew OH EN91
May 19, 2020, 1:51 p.m. Jim, it's too bad that there isn't any identifiable information in the TV pilot signal! de Andrew OH EN91
May 19, 2020, 1:47 p.m. Andrew, I see the co-relation. IF they had some kind of data embedded in a DTV pilot that a tuner could decode, we would be logging stations without a picture de Jim-T MO EM37
May 19, 2020, 1:46 p.m. Regarding the weak signal FT8 and how it relates to signal strength compared to a broadcast FM or TV station, FT8 on 2 meters travels much much farther in dead conditions. It's basically comparable to a TV pilot frequency. 400 miles in dead conditions is normal. de Andrew OH EN91

May 18, 2020, 12:12 p.m. If the HDHR can't quite decode PSIP, & you are running Ascan which also looks for TSID, it may display the calls, and new logs, w/TSID info, get listed in the Ascan "review" listing. You can verify the TSID code with the list at Rabbitears. de indysteve IN EM69
May 18, 2020, 11:55 a.m. An undecodeable signal a few days ago got to 91% "signal strength" before it registered green on the "signal strength" bar, which told me it was digital. Unlike the Zenith box, the HDHR also indicates analog signals, too. de indysteve IN EM69
May 18, 2020, 11:51 a.m. [16:12] Looking at the Rabbitears "signal graphs" of recent Es decodes at Payson, it took readings of 84% & > for decodes as it is labeled "Relative Quality" which I believe is much like the bar reading on the Zenith/Insignia boxes. de indysteve IN EM69

May 17, 2020, 4:15 p.m. Regarding DTV pilots, they can travel four to five times as far as the main signal, but they don't carry the necessary *decode* data de Jim-T MO EM37
May 17, 2020, 4:14 p.m. TSID data is injected more often in the stream than PSIP is, but most receivers need to see the PSIP data de Jim-T MO EM37
May 17, 2020, 4:12 p.m. Yes Rich, just ask Steve with the Milford and Payson sites. It takes full bandwidth to get enough data to capture any PSIP (but TSID does work with RabbitEars) de Jim-T MO EM37
May 17, 2020, 4:08 p.m. Do DTV pilots typically show up at 70-80 strength on the HDHRs? I've been getting sporadic high strengths on 2 and 3 during the eskip openings, but nothing in the way of decoding. de Rich NY FN12

May 15, 2020, 1:28 a.m. I'm going to split the VHF and UHF lines before the HDHR, apply attenuation to the VHF line, then recombine at the HDHR tuner. de Andrew OH EN91
May 15, 2020, 1:27 a.m. My VHF numbers are too high on the HDHR because both the Kitztech and CM-7777 amplifers are applying too much amplification on VHF. Almost all the dB of amplification is needed on UHF except maybe 5-8 dB extra, but on VHF, I could apply a whopping 18 dB attenuation until I just started to see a reduction in SNRs. de Andrew OH EN91

May 14, 2020, 5:08 p.m. My Kitz Tech supposedly has a lower noise figure, but I'm not sure how the gain compares. I have the line split to about 6 TV tuners, so a lot of loss that needs recouped. Both amps cannot handle the overload here, so I still gotta use the overload filters. de Andrew OH EN91
May 14, 2020, 5:07 p.m. Bill, I'm still working on eliminating as much RFI in my house as possible. I have a bag of ferrites. I just switched from the 7777 to the Kitz Tech KT-200 amplifier to see if that helps too. de Andrew OH EN91

May 11, 2020, 3:52 p.m. Aim the dipoles to null the locals. de WRH ON FN03
May 11, 2020, 3:51 p.m. ...I'd rather put up a couple of dipoles in the attic than an omni. de WRH ON FN03
May 11, 2020, 3:50 p.m. [15:45] I can't imagine using an omni for FM in my QTH. It would be all locals. de WRH ON FN03
May 11, 2020, 3:49 p.m. [15:47] Awesome Andrew - v or h. My 100-1300 MHz version is v, and I love it. de WRH ON FN03
May 11, 2020, 3:48 p.m. (ps- I was talking about antennas, not preamps. I use no preamp on VHF TV, it's not needed). de WRH ON FN03
May 11, 2020, 3:47 p.m. Bill, I got the Create 50-1300 MHz log periodic on my roof now. de Andrew OH EN91
May 11, 2020, 3:47 p.m. [15:38] The one amp can be set either for 30db or 17db, you can try both. Remember, 30db is 1000x amplification... there's no need for that. High amplification increases the chance of interference from 5G cell towers, especially if you have any within several miles. de dtvdxer NY FN31
May 11, 2020, 3:45 p.m. I was referrin to FMDX. I'm wondering if a good omni wold serve well for Es on FM. I'm not too concerned with tropo on FM because I don't have a lot of good tropo freqs here. de Dennis VA FM18
May 11, 2020, 3:43 p.m. Weak Es signals. de WRH ON FN03
May 11, 2020, 3:43 p.m. [15:37] You need gain (with comes hand-in-hand with being directional) to get weak signals - which (sadly) includes DTV - de WRH ON FN03
May 11, 2020, 3:40 p.m. Yup, I'm on their website now. I've only had the RCA for a year but I think it's served it's purpose de Dennis VA FM18
May 11, 2020, 3:40 p.m. BTW, the CM "Amplify" model # is 7777-HD. de dtvdxer NY FN31
May 11, 2020, 3:39 p.m. Once again, I only use this antenna for DX. I have cable in the house. de Dennis VA FM18
May 11, 2020, 3:38 p.m. My closest TV station on Digital is 35 miles away. Would the Hi-Gain amp be too much? de Dennis VA FM18
May 11, 2020, 3:37 p.m. I'm not really too concerned with tropo, being directional, I'm just concerned with Es which I've found couldn't care less what direction or what type of antenna you're using. de Dennis VA FM18
May 11, 2020, 3:35 p.m. I just bought a CM3201 LTE filter so I probably don't need that but I'm considering buying an FM only antenna for my FM DX andust the Old version U8200 for my TV DX with a new Channel Master Pre-Amp de Dennis VA FM18
May 11, 2020, 3:34 p.m. The RCA I have was bought at Lowes and I just bought it on a whim. It had good revies but I think the CM will blow it away de Dennis VA FM18
May 11, 2020, 3:32 p.m. Es 1447 & 1449.. Believe I had both Dom-Rep (vid) and Haiti (aud) de Ed W-KY EM56
May 11, 2020, 3:31 p.m. I'm using the new Channel Master "Amplify" pre-amp ($89 from Channel Master) It includes FM Trap and LTE filter. Can be set at 17 or 30 db. (30db is way too much for most applicatons). de dtvdxer NY FN31
May 11, 2020, 3:20 p.m. Question---At the moment I'm usingan RCA pre-amp on the antenna mast with OK resolts. I'm wondering if someone could recommend which Channel Master Pre-amp might me best for Analog DX and also DTV?? de Dennis VA FM18
May 11, 2020, 3:09 p.m. Es on ATV mostly gone here in VA at the moment de Dennis VA FM18
May 11, 2020, 3:07 p.m. I actually remember the days (late 90s and early 2000s) where we ran a weekly WTFDA chat and also opened it up during openings (skip or trop). I loved that and if there was interest would try to revive it. Maybe on MIRC de Keith MA FN42nf
May 11, 2020, 3:06 p.m. Es 2z bmg S-E... Logo matches "TA" logo found on WRH site so, Dom-Rep de Ed W-KY EM56
May 11, 2020, 3:04 p.m. I don't think we want to see any dx reporting banned but just the leaving it to mostly FM and TV (and weather band too LOL)...leaving the 2m and 6m stuff to just early reporting (or a second tab). de Keith MA FN42nf
May 11, 2020, 3:02 p.m. [1447] I had 3 carriers on 2z this morning. Also had the Warbler in the middle at 55.249.850 de Dennis VA FM18
May 11, 2020, 3 p.m. However, some of best tropo DX is on the wx-radio band and I'd hate to see it banned (i.e.-TV/FM only) de WRH ON FN03
May 11, 2020, 3 p.m. I agree satellite is OT as its line-of-sight. de WRH ON FN03
May 11, 2020, 2:57 p.m. Are you sure that wasn't TelAntilles???? de Dennis VA FM18
May 11, 2020, 2:56 p.m. Everyone is getting the quarantine blues I think....perhaps adding a second tab to the BB would work. one for 2m and 6m and the other for TV and FM. de Keith MA FN42nf
May 11, 2020, 2:54 p.m. But I'll try to back off on the minute-by-minute MUF updates. de WRH ON FN03
May 11, 2020, 2:53 p.m. There was a satellite column in the VUD until the guy died. I was told the other BOD members thought it was off topic but they let it go anyway. de mike CT FN31
May 11, 2020, 2:53 p.m. Sometimes I find endless lists of catches boring. The fun is often in the hunt of an opening. de WRH ON FN03
May 11, 2020, 2:53 p.m. The title above says WTFDA DX Bulletin Board. Sorry for the rant. Had to let off some steam. de WRH ON FN03
May 11, 2020, 2:52 p.m. I thought last season we had a good mix of TV/FM with just a smattering of out-of-band stuff. de WRH ON FN03
May 11, 2020, 2:51 p.m. Es 2z (59.75) audio sounds sorta FF de Ed W-KY EM56
May 11, 2020, 2:51 p.m. [14:49] video and/or audio. I keep track of precise carrier freqs to help in determining QTH when more than 1 network xmtr is on the same channel. de WRH ON FN03
May 11, 2020, 2:50 p.m. I thought this was a 30 MHz to daylight club. There have even been satellite columns in the VUD. de WRH ON FN03
May 11, 2020, 2:49 p.m. I miss the F2 DX days when there was a good 30-50 MHz column in the VUD with skip reports. de WRH ON FN03
May 11, 2020, 2:49 p.m. 1447... Has "TA" logo in upper right... de Ed W-KY EM56
May 11, 2020, 2:49 p.m. WRH: How did u verify you Venezuela logging on ATV? Did u have actual video?? If so, I am SOOOOO jealous. As I said before, it my be flying right over my head. de Dennis VA FM18
May 11, 2020, 2:49 p.m. I admit last year I reported Greece on 6m. But as a VHF-UHF DXer I thought that might be interesting. de WRH ON FN03
May 11, 2020, 2:47 p.m. Es 55.260 South de N8UUP Bill MI EN82ee
May 11, 2020, 2:47 p.m. Sometimes I feel like I'm the only one getting 2Es to South America. I want others in on it too. de WRH ON FN03
May 11, 2020, 2:47 p.m. Es 2z (55.25) multi vid-cars... One is a warbler... Bmg S-E de Ed W-KY EM56
May 11, 2020, 2:46 p.m. Bill..that makes sense. My comment was about posting once FM and TV were in. de Keith MA FN42nf
May 11, 2020, 2:45 p.m. Once TV & FM is in...I couldn't give a rats butt about 6m ham radio. I report it to help us TV DXers. de WRH ON FN03
May 11, 2020, 2:38 p.m. Going to weigh in. My take is that an alert of a 6m opening is fine but if skip reaches TV and FM then continual 6m postings would just add clutter imho de Keith MA FN42nf
May 11, 2020, 2:31 p.m. Bill...do what you were doing last night when TV skip was in. de mike CT FN31
May 11, 2020, 2:25 p.m. If digital, that would indicate a relevance for me. de Russ-WB2BJH PA FN20id
May 11, 2020, 2:22 p.m. Nothing wrong with comments or hnts if it helps someone long something. de mike CT FN31
May 11, 2020, 2:21 p.m. If if is TV or FM related, post it real time. de mike CT FN31
May 11, 2020, 2:21 p.m. WRH - were your 6m VEN & GTM on 6 digital or voice ? de Russ-WB2BJH PA FN20id
May 11, 2020, 2:16 p.m. I'll start today. See you all later. de WRH ON FN03
May 11, 2020, 2:16 p.m. I'll send a summary of catches AFTER the opening is over. de WRH ON FN03
May 11, 2020, 2:15 p.m. Mike..if all you want is DX reports but no clues, comments or hints - then fine, so be it. de WRH ON FN03
May 11, 2020, 2:13 p.m. The more I know about the Es situation the better. If others don't want my knowledge shared, I can keep it to myself. de WRH ON FN03
May 11, 2020, 2:13 p.m. [14:11] Simple - yesterday I had Venezuela on 6m - 5 minutes later I had tentative VEN TV - followed by CLM. de WRH ON FN03
May 11, 2020, 2:11 p.m. I am also uncertain of the relevance of automated digital 6m action to FM/TV de Russ-WB2BJH PA FN20id
May 11, 2020, 2:09 p.m. My take is that 2m isn't relevant because usually if skip is there it's already on FM/TV and we know that. de Russ-WB2BJH PA FN20id
May 11, 2020, 1:57 p.m. Es 55.240 weak with QSB - south de N8UUP Bill MI EN82ee
May 11, 2020, 1:48 p.m. Most people (Chris, Fred, Dave, etc) only post when they have something to report. de mike CT FN31
May 11, 2020, 1:43 p.m. Keep things TV DX and FM DX related, like it used to be. If you can't then just don't post. Which is why I hardly post here. FM DX for me is almost nil. de mike CT FN31
May 11, 2020, 1:32 p.m. Time typo..[04:28] de Jim-T MO EM37
May 11, 2020, 1:31 p.m. [04:48] Ed quoted from the WTFDA website. It seems clear that its from six meters ham band, with relevancy to TV and FM dx. I will be corrected if I don't understand that. de Jim-T MO EM37
May 11, 2020, 1:24 p.m. As Bill mentioned, we've been getting mixed signals on this. I've specifically asked before if it was okay to post, and my answer was YES. Now I'm being told NO. de Andrew OH EN91
May 11, 2020, 1:17 p.m. Mike - I don't do ham radio. How much DX reports from ham radio is tolerated? de Jim-T MO EM37
May 11, 2020, 1:16 p.m. I know its up to Ed and he sets the rules. de Jim-T MO EM37
May 11, 2020, 1:16 p.m. Andrew, this is not an amateur radio forum. You don't do it on DXWorld and don't do it here. I *will* delete. And I have talked to Ed about this already. de mike CT FN31
May 11, 2020, 1:16 p.m. Andrew, I appreciate anybody's ham band dx reports being posted, only to give a clue to DX conditions. I'd rather see that than a bunch of mindless chatter. The other board is a total mess right now. de Jim-T MO EM37
May 11, 2020, 1:12 p.m. Ed, since you pay for this BB, do you mind if I post 2 meter exotic DX like Es or the Ms? I promise I won't go too crazy. de Andrew OH EN91

May 10, 2020, 10:35 p.m. Re: 18:19 It had to be prior to 2000 when I became publisher. Let's keep it to TV DX and FM DX. There is no shortage of amateur radio sites and forums to post ham related topics. de mike CT FN31
May 10, 2020, 8:04 p.m. I still remember some of your CB reports Saul, lol. de WRH ON FN03
May 10, 2020, 6:58 p.m. I would imagine we'll see higher MUF reports once Es gets underway... de Saul ON FN04

May 10, 2020, 2:39 p.m. Switching back to FT8. DXing hams is boring anyway (: de WRH ON FN03
May 10, 2020, 2:38 p.m. No hits so far. de WRH ON FN03
May 10, 2020, 2:35 p.m. Apparently I have a confirmed report of VE3MIS in Mississauga receiving me. de Andrew OH EN91
May 10, 2020, 2:34 p.m. I'm throwing 80 watts into the antenna, but I'm sure that 80 watts would be more effective on a narrower FT8. de Andrew OH EN91
May 10, 2020, 2:33 p.m. If MSK144 doesn't work, I can switch to FT8 on 144.174... let me know. I'm curious if I can reach you with this mediocre 5/8 wave antenna. de Andrew OH EN91

May 10, 2020, 2:25 p.m. If you give me a moment, I'll go outside and manually rotate the dipole in your direction. de Andrew OH EN91
May 10, 2020, 2:23 p.m. I'm transmitting on MSK144 now... not sure if you'll receive me or not. I don't quite have the horizontal aimed your way. de Andrew OH EN91
May 10, 2020, 2:17 p.m. I just switched modes, that was easy. de WRH ON FN03

May 10, 2020, 2:13 p.m. I use the PSK Reporter website to see if I'm being reported received anywhere, because often times the ham may receive but it's hard to make an actual contact with Ms. I almost did this morning with W5EME... he sent me an "R" back, but we didn't officially complete the contact. de Andrew OH EN91
May 10, 2020, 2:11 p.m. I use horizontal polarization. I would think that's the standard for 2 meter USB, but it may not matter with Ms. de Andrew OH EN91
May 10, 2020, 2:11 p.m. Bill, yes Dennis is correct. It's MSK144 mode, and it's as easy as just switching modes on the WSJT program. MSK144 covers the entire 3 kHz width of 144.15 (or 2.8 kHz... I forget). It sounds like a jackhammer, and when you receive it, it only takes a secord or two to decode something, as opposed to narrower FT8 which requires almost 15 seconds. de Andrew OH EN91

May 6, 2020, 1:58 p.m. [13:56] Jim, that's correct. I see the video carrier for CIII-2 at 355 miles 24/7. de Andrew OH EN91
May 6, 2020, 1:57 p.m. Jim, check out this recording I just made. I had a real stron spike and u can hear the warble. https://www.dropbox.com/s/b5re43b20djsfsg/06-May-2020%2009h54m35s%2C%2076.309%20MHz%2C%20USB.mp3?dl=0 de Dennis VA FM18

May 6, 2020, 1:41 p.m. Es pilots (solid tones east) on DTV 2 & 3, but they are staying in the *basement*, aka an exercise in futility. Not even enough bandwidth for the HDHR to see them. de Jim-T MO EM37

May 6, 2020, 12:04 p.m. [20:58] Chris, not that I know of. I wouldn't bother unless I knew the location was good. Doylestown was okay, but not as good as I anticipated. I think mobile DXing is more productiive anyways, but Doylestown did get me quite a few new logs I wouldn't have gotten otherwise. DTV total is at 463 now (since 2015). de Andrew OH EN91

May 5, 2020, 5:45 p.m. I'm not at all familiar with MSK de Russ-WB2BJH PA FN20id
May 5, 2020, 5:31 p.m. Hi Russ, I've been getting into FT8 on 2 meters, and some of the logs I get are surprising. It's normal to see tropo scatter up to 400 miles every day. Most hams are now using the MSK144 mode for 2 meter meteor scatter, and it's regular that every day you get tens of logs within Es range on MSK144. de Andrew OH EN91

May 5, 2020, 5:13 p.m. OK - wasn't sure if that was the way it worked since I have no direct experience with either FT8 nor autmated loggig. de Russ-WB2BJH PA FN20id
May 5, 2020, 4:28 p.m. [15:58] I realize that. I'm just saying it's even worse now. I'm sending automated hits 24/7 - and I have no control over the mode choice. de WRH ON FN03

May 5, 2020, 3:58 p.m. This observation predates FT8 and now includes it. If the user enters the mode, it's user error. I've seen more than a few 200-300 mile contacts shown as Es. de Russ-WB2BJH PA FN20id
May 5, 2020, 3:35 p.m. I would set it to Es only if there were consecutive hits. One-ofs should default to Ms. de WRH ON FN03
May 5, 2020, 3:34 p.m. It's hard to get the modes correct with automated hits. de WRH ON FN03

May 5, 2020, 1:44 p.m. I think it was someone that doesn't like (hates) FT8, so they must be in denial. de Jim-T MO EM37
May 5, 2020, 1:34 p.m. Jim , I don't see how it's NOT affected by Es. You can monitor 6 meters all day and hear nothing and then one day...it's alive. SO, what causes that? Hmmmmmmm de Dennis VA FM18
