X-Mailer: Unknown (No Version) Very Interesting. In the WSJT user screen there are several sucessive -19dB S/N individual listings and, out of 70 sequences, it has selected 22 of them as being valid, but not one single correct decode. Experience on JT65B receiving the GB3RAL and GB3VHF beacons shows that -19dB S/N will give perfect copy, and -22dB will decode after two or three averaging sessions, so there's something very odd going on. What I can make out on the spectrogram, the sync tone is in more-or-less the righ place. Your WSPR signal is just 3 Hz low, and the JT65A sync tone about 15Hz lower that stated, which is more than near enough for a valid decode - and the user screen shows its doing just as it should - with some strong enough individual demods BUT NO DECODES - why???????????????. Do I understand you are not using the actual WSJT software to encode the data? Are you actually sure the MultiPSK implementation is doing its job properly.
