Good Morning All,
Some of you probably are aware of this but for others, including myself, here is a new mode to try. JS8 Call, formerly known as FT8Call, incorporates the encoding of FT8 with the added benefit of actually being able to conduct rag chew QSO's. There are a quite a few YouTube videos on the subject. The download of the software is free and if you already have used WSJT-x, the configuration of the software to the radio is about the same.The link below will get you started. This has been active since around July of this year. I just downloaded today and will be playing with it over the next few days. In these times of solar minimum, it could open a new window for RF/DX.
