Controls related to frequency selection, received audio level, the
|
|
station being called, and date and time are found in the lower,
|
|
left-hand section of the main window. Buttons are provided for making
|
|
quick changes among the modes FT8, FT4, MSK144, Q65, and JT65, and
|
|
for toggling FT8 Hound mode ON or OFF.

|
* A drop-down list of frequencies and bands in the upper, left-hand corner lets you
|
|
select the operating band. It also sets dial frequency to a value taken from the *Frequencies* tab on the *Settings* window. If CAT control
|
|
is active, the radio's dial frequency is set accordingly; if not,
|
|
you must tune the radio manually.
|
|
|
|
* Alternatively, you can enter a frequency (in MHz) or band name in
|
|
recognized ADIF format, for example 630m, 20m, or 70cm. The band-name
|
|
format works only if a working frequency has been set for that band
|
|
and mode, in which case the first such match is selected.
|
|
|
|
* You can also enter a frequency increment in kHz above the currently
|
|
displayed integer MHz. For example, if the displayed frequency is
|
|
10,368.100, enter `165k` (don't forget the `k`!) to QSY to 10,368.165.
|
|
|
|
* A small colored circle appears in green if the CAT control is
|
|
activated and functional. The green circle contains the character S
|
|
if the rig is detected to be in *Split* mode. The circle becomes red
|
|
if you have requested CAT control but communication with the radio has
|
|
been lost.

TIP: Many Icom rigs cannot be queried for split status, current VFO or
|
|
split transmit frequency. When using _WSJT-X_ with such radios you
|
|
should not change the current VFO, split status or dial frequency
|
|
using controls on the radio.
|
|
|
|
* If *DX Grid* contains a valid Maidenhead locator, the corresponding
|
|
great-circle azimuth and distance from your location are displayed.
|
|
|
|
* The program can maintain a database of callsigns and locators for
|
|
future reference. Click *Add* to insert the present call and locator
|
|
in the database; click *Lookup* to retrieve the locator for a
|
|
previously stored call. This feature is mainly useful for situations
|
|
in which the number of active stations is modest and reasonably
|
|
stable, such as EME (Earth-Moon-Earth) communication. The callsign
|
|
file name is `CALL3.TXT`.
