WSJT-X 2.7.0 Release Candidate 5 primarily introduces a new "SuperFox
and SuperHound" mode. Furthermore, it brings some fixes and detail
improvements.
and SuperHound" mode, a powerful new tool that helps DXpeditions to make
digital QSOs at very high rates. Furthermore, it brings some fixes and
other improvements.
SuperFox and SuperHound mode:
- .....
- The SuperFox mode behaves operationally like the present Fox and Hounds
but uses a constant envelope waveform for Foxs transmissions rather
than sending concurrent streams of up to five normal FT8 signals. This
has the advantage that up to 9 messages can be transmitted without
getting a signal-strength penalty, resulting in a system gain of approx.
+10 dB compared to the conventional Fox/Hound operation with 5 slots!
- Right-click on the FT8 buttons to toggle SuperFox mode. It works
both when in Hound or in Fox mode.
- Hounds chasing the DX station transmit normal FT8 signals, as in the
already familiar Fox and Hound mode.
- Important: Hounds must use at least WSJT-X 2.7.0-rc5 to be able to
receive SuperFox messages.
- When in SuperFox mode, Hound stations can call now also below 1000 Hz.
- SuperFox Operation requires the Fox operator to use a valid key. Such
messages then contain a digital signature. Authorized keys will be
issued in advance for legitimate DXpeditions by the Northern California
DX Foundation.
- Hounds will see the "Super Hound" label turn to green when a verified
SuperFox message arrives, as well as a "CALLSIGN verified" message.
- Hound Operation should begin by selecting Special operating activity,
SuperFox, and Hound on the Settings / Advanced page. Alternatively,
right-clicking on the FT8 buttons toggles SuperFox mode on/off.
It works both when in Hound or in Fox mode. This allows quick switching
between SuperFox and the normal Fox and Hound operation.
- SuperFox stations can send free text messages of up to 26 characters.
