|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
_Working Frequencies_: By default the *Working Frequencies* table
|
||
|
|
contains a list of frequencies conventionally used for modes JT4, JT9,
|
||
|
|
JT65, MSK144, WSPR, and Echo. Conventions may change with time or
|
||
|
|
by user preference; you can modify the frequency table as desired.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- To change an existing entry, double-click to edit it, type a desired
|
||
|
|
frequency in MHz or select from the drop down list of options, then
|
||
|
|
hit *Enter* on the keyboard. The program will format your changed
|
||
|
|
entry appropriately.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- To add a new entry, right-click anywhere on the frequency table and
|
||
|
|
select *Insert*. Enter a frequency in MHz in the pop-up box and
|
||
|
|
select the desired mode (or leave the Mode selection as *All*). Then
|
||
|
|
click *OK*. The table may include more than one frequency for a given
|
||
|
|
band.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- To delete an entry, right-click it and select *Delete*, multiple
|
||
|
|
entries can be deleted in a single operation by selecting them before
|
||
|
|
right-clicking.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Right-click any entry and click *Reset* button to return the table
|
||
|
|
to its default configuration.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Other more advanced maintenance operations are available on the
|
||
|
|
right-click context menu that should be self-explanatory.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
_Frequency Calibration_: If you have calibrated your radio using WWV
|
||
|
|
or other reliable frequency references, or perhaps with the technique
|
||
|
|
described in {fmt_wspr}, enter the measured values for _Intercept_ A
|
||
|
|
and _Slope_ B in the equation
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Dial error = A + B*f
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
where "`Dial error`" and A are in Hz, f is frequency in MHz, and B is
|
||
|
|
in parts per million (ppm). Frequency values sent to the radio and
|
||
|
|
received from it will then be adjusted so that frequencies displayed
|
||
|
|
by _WSJT-X_ are accurate.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
_Station Information_: You can save *Band*, *Offset* and *Antenna
|
||
|
|
Description* information for your station. The antenna information
|
||
|
|
will be included in reception reports sent to {pskreporter}. By
|
||
|
|
default the frequency offset for each band is zero. Nonzero offsets
|
||
|
|
may be added if (for example) a <<VHF_SETUP,transverter>> is in use.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- To simplify things you might want to delete any unwanted bands --
|
||
|
|
for example, bands where you have no equipment. Then click on a
|
||
|
|
*Frequency* entry and type *Ctrl+A* to "`select all,`" and
|
||
|
|
drag-and-drop the entries onto the _Station Information_ table. You
|
||
|
|
can then add any transverter offsets and antenna details.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- To avoid typing the same information many times, you can
|
||
|
|
drag-and-drop entries between the lines of the _Station Information_
|
||
|
|
table.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- When all settings have been configured to your liking, click *OK* to
|
||
|
|
dismiss the *Settings* window.
