Make sure your computer clock is set to the correct time

On MSK144, in the drop down box that appears in the middle of the main screen, what do you have the "F Tol" set to?   Signals must appear within 50.260.000 +/- F Tol in order to decode.  So, if you are hearing signals but are not decoding them, they may be outside of this narrow freq range.  So make sure F Tol is set to "200", make sure you are using USB, and last, if you have a freq counter or can borrow one, check the rigs frequency accuracy.  I know on my FT2000D, on 6m, my display freq is low by 200 Hz, so I set my dial to 50.260.200.   If I set it to 50.260.000 I don't see any decodes.  Doubt that you need a preamp. Hope this is helpful. 73, JonW0ZQ  -----Original Message-----
