The Auto Grid function in WSJT-X allows you to set a temporary WWL (Worldwide Locator) based on the GPS location detected by BktTimeSync.

To use this feature with BktTimeSync, you must meet the following requirements:

[ul]
[li]Have Microsoft Net Framework 4.8 or a later version installed (which is already included by default in Windows 11).[/li]
[li]Activate GPS synchronization and wait for the WW Locator grid value to be displayed.[/li]
[li]The WW Locator is sent to WSJT-X only when BktTimeSync synchronizes the time using GPS or by pressing the [Send WW Locator] button.[/li]
[li]Sending the WW Locator may fail if there are other software programs that are also using the connection to WSJT-X. If there is an error, BktTimeSync will automatically retry for one minute.[/li]
[/ul]

The grid sent by BktTimeSync to WSJT-X will not be visible in the WSJT-X configuration but will be used only during transmission. If WSJT-X is restarted, it must be sent again.

To configure WSJT-X in this way:

I am trying to save the transmit CTCSS TONE selection in a memory. 

I set TONE in Tx Ac T. I press ENTER. Then I click SAVE. TONE disappears. So that doesn't work. 

I set TONE in Tx Ac T. I press ENTER. Then click SAVE and Active. TONE disappears. That doesn't work. 

How do I save TONE 'on' in a memory?

This is not addressed in the Editing Memory Bank area in the HELP file. 

In case it matters, I can use the live control panel to turn TONE on and off. That works.

Help?

Thanks

Hi Mauro

I received the key zip file

unzipped it in the C:\IZ2BKT\IC7000BKT Icom CAT Control folder

ran IC7000.bkt

found 'register program,' pointed it to VK2AAF.ic7000bkt.bkt

program responded that registration would work after program is restarted

restarted program

program knows my callsign but registered functions don't work, asks to register again

repeat repeat repeat

help please

thanks

I have installed the latest version of BktTimeSync on Windows11. The first time I started up I got a setup screen where I could set some things.
I'll determine when and how to synchronize the time and everything seemed to be working properly.
The second time I launched the program, nothing visually happened, not a single screen popped up. So I can't set or change anything anymore.
There is nothing in the taskbar either. The time is synchronized (every hour) correctly so the program is running. I can see this in the Windows notifications.
Un-installing and re-installing won't help.
What am I doing wrong?

Thanks in advance.

Good evening. I just registered to this program for ic-706. I like some times to work remote from another pc on the same network. The software is connected to ic-706. What i need to do is to connect to remote pc to run the software and put on or off the radio but i cannot see any button in software.
Is anybody here tried to do this? 
thank you.

Volevo utilizzare il programma BktSuite per collegare la mia stazione che si trova a casa dei miei genitori, dove non c'e' l'adsl, utilizzando una connessione mobile con sim e router. C'e la possibilità di aprire le porta utilizzate dal programma con questo tipo di connessione? Avendo fatto delle prove in merito (tramite es desktop remoto) abbiamo constatato che le porte sono nattate.

mentre il sistema con IC706MKII funziona correttamente con la gestione remota, ho riscontrato un problema attivando lo stesso tipo di connessione
con un IC7000:
- IC7000BKT si connette regolarmente alla radio
- attivando BktRemoteServer(sullo stesso pc), si ottiene il messaggio:
  "errore aprendo IC7000BKT: assicurarsi che sia esattamente configurato"
  ma non capisco quale configurazione vada fatta

 (non ho notato differenze nelle maschere nei due casi, salvo ovviamente i dati relativi alla radio)

aggiungo una nota generale:
nella pagina BktRemoteSuite dovresti evidenziare meglio che BktRemoteServer si usa con BktRemoteClient windows
mentre BktRemoteServer.net si usa per la connessione a client android
(se ho capito bene, e come hai riportato in una nota nel forum)
perchè le scritte attuali possono generare confusione

Hi there,
I have a relatively new ARM-based laptop (Lenovo x13s) running Windows 11, and I'm interested in using it for digital operation for Amateur radio, as it boasts very long battery life. Would it be possible to get builds of BktTimeSync for ARM platforms? Windows 11 has emulation support for x86/intel systems but running native ARM applications provides better performance (and therefore better battery life) and will likely be less prone for errors.

Thanks!

Ciao Mauro,

Nella finestra Auto Cq é possibile cambiare la dicitura "frase 1" in Cq dx....per esempio e così per Frase 2 ecc.

Giusto per sapere in anticipo cosa si va a trasmettere?

Forse dal file .ini     ma prima di fare cavolate...
