Thanks for this John. I shall give it a go and let people have reports.

Roger,

I found Wolfgang, DL4YHF, has writting a GUI program to run WOLF (originally it was command line only) and it's available here:

http://freenet-homepage.de/dl4yhf/wolf/index.html

actual download URL:
http://freenet-homepage.de/dl4yhf/wolf/wolf_gui_060118.zip

I simply unzipped it and ran the WOLF_GUI.exe file.

I set the centre frequency to 1kHz (the tab "Wolf config" has settings for TX and RX centre frequency) and then back on the main tab clicked the "RX" button. Tune the RX in USB mode to 502.5000 and you should see a coloured line in the center of the waterfall (Jim's signal) then after 12 seconds or so some decoded stuff should appear.

I can't help any more than that, yet.

Cheers,

John

As I'd like to try listening to the WOLF transmissions people are sending on
500kHz, can someone give me a link or two to *suitable software and
installation instructions *please?  Is there the equivalent of K1JT's WSPR
software than simply installs and runs? At this stage I am only interested
in receiving.

I assume that a reasonable XP laptop and a SignaLink USB are all that I need
in addition to my FT817, as for WSPR.
