New subject: [Moon-net] WSJT Problem

31 Dec 2011

Hi John, you might try downloading a copy of WSJT 7 from 
_http://physics.princeton.edu/pulsar/K1JT/_ (http://physics.princeton.edu/pulsar/K1JT/) 
 and running that for a while. I have been told by others that it  seems to 
have better performance.

It certainly performs well in my station with no observed problems.

Hi  all

Yesterday I spent a very disappointing couple of hours on the moon,  with
just one complete qso.

The problem was that although there were  some strong signals, some strong
enough for me to hear the tones on a  speaker, WSJT failed to decode them. I
knew who I was watching by observing  "live cq". I thought it might be
conditions, but all around me successful  qso's were taking place.

After a while I gave up and went qrt in  disgust, and closed down WSJT. But
in fact I didn't close WSJT. It would  not close. It would not close
conventionally and Task Manager would not  close it either. And later on,
Windows would not close.

So, clearly  I had a computer problem. But there were no error messages, 
just
that  decodes were poor to non-existent.

Anyone seen this before ?

I'm  using Windows XP and WSJT 9.02.

Regards

John  G4ZTR
