JS8Call

JS8Call is an experiment to test the feasibility of a digital mode with the robustness of FT8, combined with a messaging and network protocol layer for weak signal communication on HF, using a keyboard messaging style interface. It is not designed for any specific purpose other than connecting amateur radio operators who are operating under weak signal conditions. JS8Call is heavily inspired by WSJT-XFldigi, and FSQCall and would not exist without the hard work and dedication of the many developers in the amateur radio community.

Be prepared for this to take up to a year to build. Be prepared to work with something that with a slip of the hand will kill you! Be prepared not to take too much time off from work. Be prepared to not to take too much time off from your XYL. Do take full time to ENJOY doing a project like this. Do not rush it, because when your done and everything finally works just the way you want it to, you will not know what to do with yourself next. You can take these plans and use them straight up and everything should work just fine, or you could take the time to make changes to suit your taste and uses. I took the latter and wanted to build something to suit my needs. Be prepared if you do this to make many changes in your designs as you go along. I made at least 20 or 30 changes in mine, maybe more. This amplifier started out as ZL1AXB’s plans for his amplifier that you can find on the web and I have modified those.
