[TVARC] FT8 Question

[K2PS Pete Stafford]

Interesting thought about WSJT variants.

But in my case, it seems that I got moved to the JA's exact frequency.  I
noticed later that I had Hold Tx Freq turned off (because I had last been in
fix/hound going after CY9C, and as we've learned, it doesn't reset when we
go back to normal).  But I never called the guy.  I think now that WSJT
decided that K2PSD was the same as K2PS, and since K2PSD called him, I must
have as well, as so it moved me to the JA's frequency.  A bug?  

That's my story, and I'm sticking to it!

Pete, K2PS

I think your last choice was the best. Blame it on the computer.
Or it could be JTDX - another variant.
