smaller files, by section and sub-section. Also extensive editing up through section 7. Sections 6.2, 8, and beyond definitely need work. Other polishing is also desirable, and maybe also some additions and/or changes. git-svn-id: svn+ssh://svn.code.sf.net/p/wsjt/wsjt/branches/wsjtx@3656 ab8295b8-cf94-4d9e-aec4-7959e3be5d79

.Receiver Noise Level
|
||
- Click the Monitor button to return to normal receive operation.
|
||
- Set your transceiver to USB (or USB Data) mode.
|
||
- Use the receiver gain control(s) and/or the Windows mixer controls
|
||
to set the background noise level to around 30 dB or mid-scale. If
|
||
necessary you can also use the slider next to the scale, but note that
|
||
the overall dynamic range will be best with this slider not too far
|
||
from its mid-point.
|
||
|
||
.Bandwidth and Frequency Setting
|
||
|
||
Taking full advantage of the wide-band, dual-mode capability of
|
||
{wsjtx} requires a receiver bandwidth of at least 4 kHz. For example,
|
||
on a Kenwood TS-2000 I set *Low Cut* to 200 and *High Cut* to 5000
|
||
Hz. Note that most SSB transceivers have a fixed Tx filter that will
|
||
not pass audio frequencies higher than about 2700 Hz. {wsjtx} takes
|
||
care of this by using Split mode, receiving with *VFO A* and
|
||
transmitting with *VFO B*. The Tx dial frequency (*VFO B*) is offset
|
||
in 500 Hz steps, and the generated audio frequency is adjusted so that
|
||
it always falls in the range 1500 – 2000 Hz. With *CAT* and *Split Tx*
|
||
enabled on the configuration screen and your transceiver set to
|
||
*Tx Split* mode, frequency control will be handled automatically.
|
||
|
||
If your transceiver has only a standard SSB filter you won’t be able
|
||
to use more than about 2.7 kHz bandwidth. You can still have all of
|
||
the JT9 sub-band and part of the JT65 sub-band available, however. On
|
||
20m, say, set dial frequency (*VFO A*) to 14.0774 and the *JT9 nnnn JT65*
|
||
dividing line at 1600 Hz. JT9 signals in their conventional sub-band
|
||
will then appear at 1600 – 2600 Hz, while JT65 signals will be below
|
||
1000 Hz. Of course, you might prefer to concentrate on one mode at a
|
||
time, setting your dial frequency to (say) 14.076 for JT65 and 14.078
|
||
for JT9. Present conventions have the nominal JT9 dial frequency 2
|
||
kHz higher than the JT65 dial frequency, and the check-box labeled +2
|
||
kHz, just below the band selector, makes the appropriate settings
|
||
easy.
