Re: How to get output to tracking page #u4b


 

Hi Dave,
I am new to the U4B.
I have created balloon flight: Gadgetman, and it is active.
I am testing at my QTH at this point.
I have followed all the pointers mentioned:-
  • Callsign in uppercase (in the Balloon Flight cfg)
  • In my local WSJT-X cfg I am using a friends call sign with a different Maidenhead to my own, to receive the U4B TELE
  • Because the HF antenna is just lying on the ground, no one else is picking up the TX, only my own local WSJT-X
  • Uploaded a spot to fool Wspnet not to use the M6 spot they have memorized with my callsign.
  • Set the TX to 20m, Chan 124
After many hours, the QRP Labs?tracking page has not seen me. Yet WSPR packets are recorded by WSPRNET.

Output my U4B tracker program:-
19:09:51? GPS START...
