I did this year's unique Field Day using CW and FT4/FT8. It was like
operating SS except the exchange is shorter. As expected, the FT4/FT8
windows were wall-to-wall with signals. I used the amp in both modes so
I could do runs. I had good rates with FT4 - WHEN the program was
running. Apparently, a bug in the N1MM+/WSJT-X integration caused the
program to crash after ~15 minutes of running FT4, requiring a reboot.
There may be a simple fix as one of the developers suggested changing the
decode speed to fast. This seemed to work for 30+ minutes before I shut
down.
Hope everyone had fun. With the altered rules for this year, the club
should have quite a few entries for the final score.
