Does anyone have experience using WSJT to make random contacts in VHF/UHF contacts? That is, calling CQ on a specific frequency without skeds and making contacts? Do you work enough additional contac
My own experience is mixed about your question. No clear answer. Being a relative newbie, I've inched my way into WSJT MS contacts during contests. The skeds often work out, but contacts usually take
I wouldn't try it while in motion. You will be in a ditch or hit a tree before you know it. Contrary to what you may have heard WSJT really requires a lot of work and patience to make a contact. You

Dave, the default WSJT protocol in NA is: WEST IS FIRST Regardless of the length of the sequence. Jay W9RM What just is proper protocol for me calling CQ from fn02nw? top of the minute or bottom of t
Hmmm, on second reading, I guess you're not in the midwest if you are going to be operating from FN02. Sorry. :-) So normally you would transmit 2nd sequence. If beaming east of you, transmit 1st seq
The westernmost station transmits during Sequence 1 (top of the minute). Now remember that this isn't a LAW, it's just a recommended custom, designed to help stations have at least some idea of when
For those of us in the South, what do you do if you are beaming north? 73 Jim, W4KXY It doesn't matter how beautiful your theory is, it doesn't matter how smart you are. If it doesn't agree with expe
Here is some post contest input to this question. I put a bit more effort into WSJT/FSK441 on 6 this contest since January is almost always dead for 6 (this year was no exception). I was able to make
