[RTTY] Fw: Can,t receive QTC's and condx horrible

I did not have any issues last night receiving QTC's but I am wondering why the screen freezes. I could see this happening when sending qtc's as the loger needs to see the qtc in the rx window to be able to send the next one. This allows the program to know it has been sent and then it moves to the next qtc. I'll keep digging to see why it is freezing on rx tho..

Ross, I saw you spotted on 40 a few minutes ago but could not hear you from W4 land. There have been a couple of reports of N1MM not receiving QTCs but this is the first I have heard of it not sending QTCs.

I just finished my shift on 40 meters on the RUN station and was able to successfully send one set of ten QTCs and received two sets of ten. It worked perfectly for me.

In case you missed it, here's a tutorial that might help.

One note - if WS7I/4 says something "QTC LATER" it means you are working one of the MULT stations and not the RUN station. The RUN station (the one calling CQ and being spotted on the clusters) is the only station that can exchange QTCs. Find that station and we will be more than happy to exchange QTCs. The RUN station can also S&P so don't be surprised if we call you and ask for QTCs.

I have a problem, trying to receive a QTC. I control z to receive then push send all, but nothing comes into the “box”, I can see the qtc coming in on the screen. I am not receiving the header and then the rest.
So what am I missing or doing wrong, comments please.

20m condx are horrible, at the moment  with my SteppIR beam pointed into the USA, but no signals on the screen.
Where is everybody?
I also note a lack of signals overall, there does not appear to be as many as previous contests.

Regards
Ross
