This evening I downloaded and installed the WSPR 2.21 r2286 beta Joe had released a while ago. Setup of the new feature couldn’t be easier. I’m running it on Windows 7 64-bit connected to my Yaesu FT-857D switched to my Butternut HF9V, 5watts.

I set the transmit percentage at 20% except for the 160m band where I am listening only (I have a great antenna for 160m but I can’t use it to transmit on the other bands) and 6m where I have it set to 50%.

Already in the course of half an hour I’ve picked-up quite a few stations. As it goes to each band, I select my usual frequency in the audio bandpass. I think coordinated hopping is really a great feature. Running that with a multi-band SDR would be really cool.

72/73!
