FT8 - VK2EHQ - 02-10-2017
Is there any VK (or ZL) FT8 activity on 6m? Any nominated frequency that suits our band plan?

Peter,
I run WSJT-X 1.8.1rc2 here (on Linux of course) and have just compiled MSHV 1.49 which doesn't (wink) have FT8.
Download MSHV sauce...
mkdir build1; cd build1
Edit ../src/config.h and uncomment QT5
== enable FT8 == Edit ../src/main_ms.cp
Line 469 rb_mode_ft8->setEnabled(true);//k1jt problem
qmake-qt5 ../MSHV_x86_64.pro
Edit Makefile find "posix" text libfftw3....posix.a
replace with "-lfftw3"
make
============ UPDATE 5/11/17 MSHV 1.53 has FT8 enabled ======

Hi Alan,
Thanks for the response regarding the sked times on the weekends. I have copied VK2, 3, 4 & 5 many times using MSHV, but don't have anything suitable to get back to them, well that's up on a tower. Sitting inside a wall of a shed is not the way to do it.
Unfortunately, at the moment I'm running Windows only.
Cheers,
Peter VK2EHQ
