WSJT-X User’s Guide
An alternative JT65 decoder executable kvasd for i386 Ubuntu is available at
http://www.physics.princeton.edu/pulsar/K1JT/kvasd . This decoder is not open-source, is not included in
the wsjtx package, and is not required for JT65 decoding.
OPTIONS
-r, --rig-name[=RIGNAME]
Enable multiple instances of the wsjtx(1) application to run concurrently. Each RIGNAME must be
unique. One instance may use no RIGNAME. If this option is not supplied then only one instance of
wsjtx(1) may be run at any time.
-v, --version
Display the application version.
-h,--help
Display usage information.
--test-mode
When this option is provided all writable files will be placed in a special test location
(~/.qttest). This option is only for application testing and is not designed for normal operations.
Use with caution.
FILES
Most of the following files are in a directory path containing the directory name WSJT-X[ - RIGNAME]
which indicates the value of the command line option --rig-name=RIGNAME to indicate multiple instances of
wsjtx running concurrently. All writable files listed below are therefore unique to each concurrent
instance of wsjtx. If the --rig-name command line option is not supplied or the RIGNAME argument is not
supplied then the directory paths below will have the directory WSJT-X.
~/.config/WSJT-X[ - RIGNAME].ini
This file stores the application configuration settings.
~/.local/share/WSJT-X[ - RIGNAME]/ALL.txt
ALL.txt contains a record of transmitted and received messages and other activity such as frequency
or band changes.
~/.local/share/WSJT-X[ - RIGNAME]/save/
Is the default location for saved .WAV files recorded by the application. The .WAV file save location
may be changed in the applications settings dialog.
~/.local/share/WSJT-X[ - RIGNAME]/save/samples/
Sample .WAV files supplied with the application are found in this directory, they may be played back
in the application and are referred to in the user guide tutorial sections.
~/.local/share/WSJT-X[ -RIGNAME]/timer.out
This is a diagnostic file that records decode performance profiling information.
~/.local/share/WSJT-X[ - RIGNAME]/cty.dat
This file is not required as a version of it is embedded in the application, but if you wish an
updated version can be placed here. If present that version will be used in preference to the
embedded version.
~/.local/share/WSJT-X[ - RIGNAME]/wsjtx.log
This is a plain text CSV record of logged QSOs.
~/.local/share/WSJT-X[ - RIGNAME]/wsjtx_log.adi
This is a record of QSOs logged in the ADIF format which is suitable for import into many Ham Radio
logging programs.
