I'm running WSJT7 which is a QSO mode program originally developed for meteor scatter and EME
running various modes. WSPR has been added to that program. It's a beta release so it may have
issues...
With WSPR running under WSJT7 one station transmits 'first' which is the first two minutes starting
at the top of the hour. The program then goes into receive for two minutes and then automatically
switches back and forth. It's designed for a one on one QSO whereas WSPR is basically a beacon
program that lets you listen for the other beacons at random intervals.
Still trying to work through the issues with WSJT7.

Subject: LF: Re: 500kHz WSPR Beacon
Dear LF Group,
The WSPR beacon is now running in "33% TX" mode, i.e. it transmits on
average in 1/3 of the 2 minute time slots an receives the rest of the time.
QRG is 503.510kHz (nominally) TX, 502.0kHz "dial frequency", listening on
508.5 kHz +/- (hopefully...). I have not had any copy from WE2XGR yet
tonight, although am starting to see a faint trace on the spectrogram.
The software I am using is the current GUI beacon software v 1.01_r1023
