FST4W is used in the same way as WSPR, but FST4W has significant
|
|
advantages for use on the 2200 m and 630 m bands. By default the
|
|
central *Rx Freq* is 1500 Hz and *F Tol* is 100 Hz, so the active
|
|
decoding range is 1400 to 1600 Hz. However, for added flexibility you
|
|
can select different center frequencies and *F Tol* values. We expect
|
|
that usage conventions will soon be established for FST4W activity on
|
|
2200 and 630 m.
|
|
|
|
A new drop-down control below *F Tol* offers a round-robin mode for
|
|
scheduling FST4W transmissions:

|
|
|
|
If three operators agree in advance to select the options *1/3*,
|
|
*2/3*, and *3/3*, for example, their FST4W transmissions will occur in
|
|
a fixed sequence with no two stations transmitting simultaneously.
|
|
Sequence 1 is the first sequence after 00:00 UTC. For WSPR-like
|
|
scheduling behavior, you should select *Random* with this control.
|
|
|
|
.Open a Wave File:
|
|
|
|
- Select *FST4W* on the *Mode* menu. Set *T/R* to 1800 s and *Decode | Deep*.
|
|
- Select appropriate wide graph settings. For example, try *Bins/Pixel* 1,
|
|
*Start* 1200 Hz and *N Avg* 150.
|
|
- Open a sample Wave file using *File | Open* and select the file
|
|
...\save\samples\FST4+FST4W\201230_0300.wav.
|
|
When it is finished you should see a single decode as shown in the
|
|
screenshot:

|
|
Note that the weak signal associated with the single decode is all but invisible on the
|
|
widegraph spectrogram.
