[ARCHIVED THREAD] - JS8CALL ? (Page 2 of 2)
|
Quoted: I was in Columbus OH a few years back (will be again in April) and bought a $65 Windows 10 Tablet from MicroCenter. I've used it before with my IC7100 and FLDigi. I should pull it down and load JS8call on it. It's a nice small solution for not toting a laptop around and for the $ not much (maybe less) than a Pi with a display? YMMV Link to tablet? |

Thanks man! |

Quoted: How did you set that up? Did not know that was possible. You was on when I did a HB bc I received a ack from you. Edit: was able to figure it out but no traffic on 80 so went back to 40 and parked it for the night. Is that a list you came up with or something that was coordinated by a group? I just came up with that on my own based on when I have seen those bands open at my location. It's not perfect, and I will probably tweak it in the future. |

I've been having issues with it not decoding some blocks on signals that are strong, +3 to +11 db signals that are S7-S8 are not fully decoding. I've made sure the signal strength bar graph on the left isn't too high, it is typically 50db or so. I've tried to tune off into the noise and set the mic to make the input to be 30dB (which is how I have it set for olivia) and it doesn't seem to make it better. Thoughts? |
| I've been running it in fast and copy/pasting my text twice which is wasteful, even it its the only way to carry on a conversation. Yesterday the guy I was in QSO and I exchanged center window texts via email so we could finally figure out what each other was saying... |

Quoted: What does the number of decode passes change, is more or less better? I couldn't find it in the manual. I'd rather get garbled text than just get "..." and have to guess what the 12 characters are. I leave mine on 4 thinking I would get more exact/clear decodes but have switched it to 1 and seen no difference. |
