=== JT65
In most ways JT65 operation on VHF and higher bands is similar to HF
usage. However, a few differences should be noted. Typical VHF/UHF
operation involves only a single signal in the receiver passband, or
perhaps a few, rather than many. Normally it's best to check *Single
decode* on the *Settings -> General* tab and uncheck *Two pass
decoding* on the *Advanced* tab. In this mode the JT65 decoder will
respond to special message formats sometimes used for EME, including
the OOO signal report and shorthand messages for RO, RRR, and 73.
Those messages will be automatically generated if you check the
shorthand message box *Sh*.
In many ways JT65 operation on VHF and higher bands is similar to HF
usage, but a few important differences should be noted. Typical
VHF/UHF operation involves only a single signal (or perhaps two or
three) in the receiver passband. You may find it best to check
*Single decode* on the *Settings -> General* tab. There will be
little need for *Two pass decoding* on the *Advanced* tab. With VHF
features enabled the JT65 decoder will respond to special message
formats often used for EME: the OOO signal report and two-tone
shorthand messages for RO, RRR, and 73. These messages are always
enabled for reception; they will be automatically generated for
transmission if you check the shorthand message box *Sh*.
As for JT4, you should check *Deep* on *the *Decode* menu, and
optionally *Enable averaging* and *Deep search*.
Be sure to check *Deep* on *the *Decode* menu; you may optionally
include *Enable averaging* and *Deep search*.
The following screen shot shows three transmissions from a 144 MHz EME
QSO using submode JT65B and shorthand messages. Take note of the
colored tick marks on the Wide Graph frequency scale. The green
marker at 1220 Hz indicates the selected QSO frequency (the frequency
of the JT65 Sync tone) and the *F Tol* range. A green tick at 1575 Hz
marks the frequency of the highest JT65 data tone. Orange markers
indicate the frequency of the upper tone of the two-tone signals for
RO, RRR, and 73.

=== QRA64
QRA64 is an experimental mode in the present alpha release of
_WSJT-X_, Version 1.7. The protocol is still subject to change, and
some features of the decoder will likely change. In most ways
operation of QRA64 is similar to JT65.
QRA64 is an experimental mode in the Version 1.7 alpha release of
_WSJT-X_. Some details of the protocol are still subject to change,
and some features of the decoder will almost surely change. In most
ways you will find operation of QRA64 similar to JT65. The following
screen shot shows examples of QRA64A transmissions recorded over the
EME path at 144 MHz (G4SWX transmitting to K1JT) and 10 GHz (VK7MO
transmitting to G3WDG). Notice the small red curve plotted below
frequency 1000 Hz in the Wide Graph. Even though the VK7MO signal is
scarcely visible in the waterfall, the red curve shows that the
decoder has accurately and reliably detected its synchronizing
symbols.
