[WT-support] WAEDC RTTY observations

[Winter, Andreas]

Hi,

I can confirm Ben's problem, we had it as well.

Further question:

Serial number allocation - I know it is an already discussed issue.
Working a new multiplier with the second station leads to double sending the same serial number, as long as the qso is not finished with enter. Further, the qso number is increased after Enter/CR, therefore the serial number send and the serial number logged are unequal.

Might this be feasible in a network environment: after pressing INS-Key (or F2 or similar) a message is sent into the network in order to increase the serial number sent for the other machines. To have at least the sent serial equal to the serial number in the log.
If for some reason the qso failed, it doesn't matter, the serial number remains unused.

Hw?

Dear WT Team,

we used Win-Test during past weekend very sucessfully and scored 1329
QSOs, 1184 QTCs and 819 Mults with a final score of about 2 million.
Win-Test worked great in combination with the MMTTY engine and 
microHAM USB II interfaces.

The implementation of the QTC send and receive function is marvellous
and worked very well for us.

We had two stations side by side and switched between Run and Mult
status several times.

Two minor issues:

1) QTC group numbering started with 1 on each station. So when after
a while the Run station became the Mult station and vice versa,
the new station would generate QTC 1/10, 2/10, 3/10 etc. The rules
say, the numbers have to be consecutive, so there needs to be some
intelligence to sync the QTC group numbers.

2) The NP3D/W1 was identified as a K3 multiplier by Win-Test. In fact
it should be a K1.

I did not observe a packet stream delay like the weekend before in
MMC on 2 meters although we used the same version.
