The JT65 mode has proven to be remarkably versatile.
Thousands of users regularly use the mode for two-way communication over
straight line-of-sight paths and the earth-moon-earth (

\end_inset
) path at frequencies from VHF to microwaves, and over multi-hop ionospheric
reflection paths at HF.
Use on HF was not originally an intended application for the mode, but
at present HF use accounts for the largest number of 2-way contacts.
Figure 5 is a spectrogram with frequency in Hz on the horizontal axis showing
JT65 activity during a one-minute time-segment (JT65 transmissions start
at the beginning of a minute and last for approximately 47 s).
The data was collected in the 20m amateur band during daytime under crowded
band conditions.
With some straightforward signal processing to demodulate the signals and
produce soft-symbol data for the FT decoder it is possible to extract and
decode 21 messages from the data summarized in Figure 5, and this is achieved
with a relatively small timeout parameter
\begin_inset Formula $T=1000$
\end_inset
.
Using exactly the same pre-processing, but without soft-symbol information
the errors-only BM decoder is able to decode only 12 messages.
