rich00 | It isn't nearly as popular but JS8call is another option which is more of a ragchew mode - you can have an actual conversation in it. It has multiple speed options. Basically the same encoding as FT8/4, but with a more open-ended message length and less structure. If you just want to rack up QSLs though FT8 is the way to go. | 21:43:30 |
Linux Ninja | Ninja Tech Consulting, LLC | In reply to @Wells:libera.chat But you have to keep on your toes with FT4... things move quick with it. I noticed. First time I sat down to use it, FT4 was active, and I'd never used it before. Had to switch to FT8 to learn it. After that, FT4 traffic had gone away. | 22:48:58 |
Linux Ninja | Ninja Tech Consulting, LLC | Once all active stations were showing logged, I switched to the other time slice and worked those. By the time the sun came up, I'd worked all the overnighters, and new stations were coming online. By then, I needed breakfast. | 22:50:44 |

Wells | Linux Ninja: I managed to get a QSO from Australia last night in FT8, which isn't too shoddy from Florida. | 12:59:28 |
Linux Ninja | In reply to @Wells:libera.chat Linux Ninja: I managed to get a QSO from Australia last night in FT8, which isn't too shoddy from Florida. I saw Australia CQing FD, along with New Zealand. Don't remember if I contacted that one. | 14:05:18 |
