My first week of JT65..

April 8, 2012 | Amateur Radio | By: Mark VandeWettering

Over the last week, I started playing around with JT65-HF. JT65-HF is a digital mode, which is good for only the most basic of information exchanges: grid square, signal levels, and perhaps a very short 73 message. But it’s got some cool features. It operates on low power, and can automatically log any callsigns you spot to a centralized location, rather like the WSPR propagation reporter. JT-65 writes records of all signals received in CSV format, and so you can mine them for all sorts of good information. I wrote a simple script that isolated all transmissions that specified a Maidenhead gridsquare, and then gathered them together all the callsigns that originated in each square. Over the last week, I’ve logged 453 unique callsigns, from 249 unique gridsquares. Not bad, for very low 40m dipole. Check it out!
