Re: Logging Warning: HRD unable to confirm

Mike, I don't know why this is occurring mid session. The setup for HRD logging is occurring when JTAlert is first started and doesn't change for the entire session. I would expect an unsupported DSN error to be shown, if there is a problem, on the first logging attempt after JTAlert startup. This is the first report I have seen of changed behavior mid-session for HRD logging. None of the HRD users on the JTAlert Test team have reported this problem. There have been a small number of HRD logging problems in recent months that were associated with using MSAccess Logs. Is your HRD log an MSAccess type? If so, the fix in most cases was to perform a full export of the current log, create a new Access log from within HRDLogbook and then import your old QSOs into this new log followed by changing JTAlert to use the new log. In some cases this did not fix the problem, but changing to using a MariaDB log, the format recommended by HRD support, resulted in a guaranteed fix. Whether a new MSAccess log file or a changeover to MariaDB will fix your problem is unknown due to the uniqueness of your experience. de Laurie VK3AMA

Re: WSJT-X Autogrid Feature Suggestion
Lawrence (VA3IQ)
Some more details on how this is done are found here: https://wsjtx.groups.io/g/main/message/28342. In summary it uses a multicast IP group address in WSJT-X.
I am trying to avoid having to remember to re-set my Grid Square in WSJT-X as I rove in either a contest or when operating HF portable, for example when working something like the RAC Challenge "Coureur des bois" portable/field activity (like SOTA or POTA, etc.) I try to minimize what I have to do at each rove location. I have a checklist to follow, but I still miss things. Hence wanting to automate it as much as possible. Currently I set my system clock and get my grid square from BktTimeSync: https://www.maniaradio.it/en/bkttimesync.html Since I have multiple consumers of my GPS data I am now looking at how to share the GPS data between platforms and devices and including the 1 PPS stream. The GPSDO 10000 MHz stream gets routed to transverters and other devices. I thought that JTAlert would be a good place for a basic method of taking the GPS stream and converting it to a format understood by WSJT-X. If the consensus is no, that is fine. My personal software is not designed to be portable or supportable. I program in C and keep my code tight and specific. 73 de VA3IQ Lawrence

Logging Warning: HRD unable to confirm
Mike Wilson <mwilson1946@...>
Unsupported ODBC DSN HRD TCP logging command result =>
This error started popping up yesterday after logging about a dozen contacts. I am using WSJT-X V2.4.0 (c19d62), JTAlert V 2.50.6. Using HRD rig control V 6.7.0.357 for rig control and HRD Logbook (same Version).
I have checked everything in all of the configurations and compared with the on-line recommended settings. If I shut down and reboot the PC, usually the logging will work for one or two contacts (but not always), and they the error’s start.
What do I do to fix this permanently?

Re: Suggestion for Sound - add filter for minimum RX dB theshold
Scott,
Won't this do about what you want ?  Edit: Seems like it would work but could not see any results. Perhaps I don't understand how it's suppose to work. Edit 2: You have to select 'SNR Strong decodes' or 'SNR Weak Decodes' (I was using "all decodes") in the 'Panels'. The "threshold" you select picks the dividing point. -- 73 Ron, W3RJW FTdx-5000, Timewave Navigator, WSJT-x 2.5.0, JTAlert 2.50.6, HRD Deluxe v6.7.0.357 FTdx-3000, SignaLink USB

Re: Suggestion for Sound - add filter for minimum RX dB theshold
Hi Scott,
Sorry – I had this backward. YOU may have a very low noise level and
can hear really weak signals, and they may not have a low noise level and cannot
hear you.

Remember that this number is the signal-to-noise ratio at the receiving
station and is only indirectly related to the actual receive level. Your
QSO partner may have a very low noise level and can hear really weak
signals.
Have you played with reducing your RF gain to see if this gives you the
same effect? (I have not tried this, so it may have no effect.)

Re: Suggestion for Sound - add filter for minimum RX dB theshold
Hey Scott, Not a bad idea - the simple solution would be to allow the list of stations to be sorted by signal strength (I use another tool that allows me to do that).Glenn

WSJT-X Autogrid Feature Suggestion
Lawrence (VA3IQ)
This is a future feature suggestion for JTAlert:
Support for WSJT-X Autogrid Feature Provide the interface logic between a GPS NEMA position feed over RS-232 to set the transmitter GRID square via the WSJT-X Autogrid capability (on General Tab in WSJT-X). I am planning to do a lot of HF roving next summer, and not having to remember to reset my grid square would be fantastic. I would also use it in VHF Rover contesting as well. I have found discussion on this feature from 2018 on the WSJT SourceForge wsjt-devel list.

JTAlert will alert on a Fox Callsign, but only when they are calling CQ. Normal Fox decodes when they are replying to one or more stations in a single decode are not alerted as there is no way to identify the transmitting Callsign (the Fox). If you work the Fox and log the QSO, JTAlert will detect the logging event and send a suitably formatted logging instruction to your enabled Logger. This is no different from normal JTAlert operation. de Laurie VK3AMA

JTAlert with Fox/Hound Mode
Marlo Montanaro - KA2IRQ
So, JTAlert doesn't parse the Fox in Fox/Hound mode? Am I missing something or is that by design? I guess I could see where you don't really need JTAlert in Fox/Hound, but it is still a "nice to have." I'm guessing it should still make a log entry if WSJT-X sends the log of the contact.

also maybe you have inadvertently set a filter, so some decodes are not showing ( as in B4 ) or 3 call area, or something Dave Garber VE3WEJ / VE3IE
