[TVARC] FT 8 Procedures Help

[steven.buhrow]

I need some FT 8 Elmering.  I’m running WSJT-X on a Mac and controlling my ICOM 7300 on 20 meters.  

I see the band activity.  I double clicked on a CQ that was highlighted in green.  On the Rx Frequency side, I double clicked on the response back to me (with my call sign) and then it showed a signal report in red.  After that I stopped since I didn’t know what I was doing and none of the You Tube videos that I could find went beyond what I did.  

So, my question is, what are the proper procedures to follow once I double-click on a CQ?

On the positive side, I did make my first FT 8 QSO.  I should have asked at Radio on the Square, but I didn’t think I would be up so quickly.

Thanks and 73,

Steve
