Many Configuration COPIES
« on: October 01, 2022, 09:39:38 AM »

There must be two dozen "copies" of CONFIGURATION in the 2.5.4 version. I have absolutely no idea of what each does beyond being some many variations of CONFIGURATIONS. I have loaded a few and they "work" within their settings but I can only assume that each has a mysterious purpose.

I have been away from Ham Radio for several years so maybe I should know what to do with them -but???   rig is Icom 7300

Configs of what? What version 2.5.4 of what?

If you want help, it’s nice to clearly state the problem.

Is this about the software installed in his IC7300 radio?

The current version of WSJT-X is 2.5.4 so my guess is that he is referring to that.

Sorry, I thought what I saw was universal. When you look at configurations there are several configurations labeled COPY but nothing else. I may have a "used version of the program with someones private set of various configs. Will seek another copy that is cleaner. Thanks for your patience.

Hey! You're gonna be an "old timer" one day.
Won't you want someone to be patient as you babble incoherently?

I'm gonna assume you're talking about WSJT-X Version 2.5.4. If you are, this is the user's guide...  https://www.physics.princeton.edu/pulsar/k1jt/wsjtx-doc/wsjtx-main-2.5.4.html

Go down to section 10.1.3 for the configuration menu. I've never used this before. It's really not necessary, but for those operating different modes with different settings, it makes it easier to switch modes without changing the settings. If you're only operating one mode, or modes that don't need different settings, and the program is working for you, then there's no need to fix what ain't broken.
