Except for the receivers at W3ENR. Grafana just doesn't like W3ENR.  ;-)

Stu,

Are you aware that there is a very nice Grafana tool for displaying what you have been posting and much more?

I noticed that. I suspect it is a wsprdaemon.conf  issue.  Maybe Rob can help.

Hi Glenn,

found your email re. grafana.  see other email.

follow up question re. 30m issue I am encountering with wsjt x.

step 1 - set fst4w to 30m via wsjt x --> this assumes there is a handshake between fst4w and my icom 7300

step 2 - manually change the band in wsjt x to a different band ---> this implies you disable the handshake between wsjt x and the 7300; otherwise manually changing the band in wsjt x will drive the 7300 and the 7300 will follow

question 1. If you perform step 2 and disable the handshake between wsjt x and the 7300, then how will wsjt x excite the 7300 to transmit?

question 2 what specific software switch in wsjt x preferences /radio are you disabling so that (a) you can manually change the wsjt x band from 30m to say 40m AND still enable WSJT X to excite the 7300 and transmit on 30m /  regular basis?

You can simply tell WSJT-X that radio type is "none", set the radio to the desired frequency  manually and use VOX to key it.

The handshake you mention is CAT, with radio type set to "none" it doesn't use CAT for either frequency  or transmit control. The only reason for having WSJT-X "Dial Frequency" correct is so that it will report the correct (Dial + rx_audio  of a spot) correctly to the database.
