Digital Contacts In The VHF Contest This Weekend - N1API - 06-04-2018 I asked if FT8 is a valid mode for the VHF contest this weekend found out that it was. VE3KI sent me the following information concerning configuring N1MM to log the FT8 contacts: FT8 is a valid mode for the contest, and WSJT-X can log directly to N1MM+, or it can log to N1MM+ via JT-Alert. In WSJT-X, look in the settings window under Reporting to enable the UDP broadcasts to N1MM+ (unless you are using JT-Alert, in which case this is unnecessary), and in the N1MM+ Configurer under the Broadcast Data tab, enable the WSJT/JTAlert import function. Try it out before the contest to make sure it's all set up correctly. 6 Meters was seriously open all day Sunday as far out as Europe, the Caribbean and even South America. I logged about 65 FT8 contacts on 6. |
