locked CQ QSY #FT8
Michael Foreman W5MJF
I clicked on a cq call “ CQ 480 YN1ECF EK62” which caused my frequency to change to 7.480 If my tuner didn’t have a fit I might not have noticed. From my all.txt file 210813_223000 7.074 Rx FT8 -1 0.3 2229 CQ 480 YN1ECF EK62 210813_223018 7.480 Tx FT8 0 0.0 1965 YN1ECF W5MJF DM80
I have been searching for some documentation but only find vailed references on the forum to a feature. Is this a feature or a bug and is it wsjtx or jtalert? Thanks, Mike Foreman W5MJF

Hi Mike, It is a WSJT-X feature. Only place I have ever seen it used is for Meteor Scatter contacts on 50 MHz and up but don't see why it couldn't be used elsewhere. The fact that it QSYed outside of the band would not be desirable if your radio doesn't have a TX inhibit to prevent OOB operation. Scott AA5AM

I have seen this on 20 meters as well... I got shifted to OOB, but caught it prior to transmit.

I keep my TX frequency the same and don't tx on the CQ frequency - WSJT setting

It is annoying when stations QSY to my CQ frequency to respond to my CQ then call CQ themselves on that frequency when the QSO is over, simply bad operating, you wouldn't do that on phone. Working split with hold TX frequency much more convenient and considerate to others. 73 Charlie G4EST www.g4est.me.uk Stay safe out there

I have found locking your TX box and setting your red TX marker on a clear open spot on the water fall works great. If someone stays too close or right on top of your red marker then just move it to another clear spot on the water fall. This also keeps you calling CQ on the person your trying to reach, and they will see you after they finish their current QSO. I have found some bands with fewer traffic to work great vs 20 meters that is often overwhelmed with many people calling. I wish someone would assign another 20 meter freq for DX only just a suggestion hi hi K5HLH. Sent from Mail for Windows
