<p>Weak-signal amateur radio communications
WSJT-X implements amateur radio communication protocols or &ldquo;modes&rdquo; called
FST4, FST4W, FT4, FT8, JT4, JT9, JT65, Q65, MSK144, and WSPR, as well as one
called Echo for detecting and measuring your own radio signals reflected from
the Moon. These modes were all designed for making reliable, confirmed QSOs
under extreme weak-signal conditions.
.
JT4, JT9, and JT65 use nearly identical message structure and source encoding
(the efficient compression of standard messages used for minimal QSOs). They
use timed 60-second T/R sequences synchronized with UTC. JT4 and JT65 were
designed for EME (&ldquo;moonbounce&rdquo;) on the VHF/UHF/microwave bands. JT9 is
optimized for the MF, and HF bands. It is about 2 dB more sensitive than
JT65 while using less than 10% of the bandwidth. Q65 offers submodes with a
wide range of T/R sequence lengths and tone spacings.
.
FT4 and FT8 are operationally similar but use T/R cycles only 7.5 and 15 s
long, respectively. MSK144 is designed for Meteor Scatter on the VHF bands.
These modes offer enhanced message formats with support for nonstandard
callsigns and some popular contests.
.
FST4 and FST4W are designed particularly for the LF and MF bands. On these
bands their fund</p>

<description>Introduction Finally, I&amp;rsquo;ve managed to pull together enough disparate components for the project to come together!
Please welcome:
Hibbian Linux, a distribution aimed at ham radio operators.
Another one? I know - there&amp;rsquo;s plenty of options for radio operators to choose from. What makes this one different?
Strong Foundations &amp;amp; Long Term Support The system is built from the ground up on Debian Linux&amp;rsquo;s Stable release. This provides a strong foundation backed with years of security and support.</description>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h1 id="introduction">Introduction</h1>
<p>Finally, I&rsquo;ve managed to pull together enough disparate components for the
project to come together!</p>
<p>Please welcome:</p>
<p><strong>Hibbian Linux</strong>, a distribution aimed at ham radio operators.</p>
<h1 id="another-one">Another one?</h1>
<p>I know - there&rsquo;s plenty of options for radio operators to choose from.
What makes this one different?</p>
<h2 id="strong-foundations--long-term-support">Strong Foundations &amp; Long Term Support</h2>
<p>The system is built from the ground up on Debian Linux&rsquo;s Stable release. This
provides a strong foundation backed with years of security and support.</p>
<h2 id="modern-software--fast-updates">Modern Software &amp; Fast Updates</h2>
<p>Debian&rsquo;s strength is in its stability, but for some of the software we want to
use, being up to date is more important. wjstx moves quickly, bpq moves quickly.
Hibbian offers the latest packages from our community to keep on top of shifting
standards and best practises.</p>
<p>Some packages I maintain aren&rsquo;t in Debian, but still deserve to be distributed
easily to users. You&rsquo;ll find them here!</p>
<h2 id="deep-experience--active-operation">Deep Experience &amp; Active Operation</h2>
<p>Hibbian is the work of me - <a href="https://foxk.it">hibby</a>. I&rsquo;m a core member of the
<a href="https://debian.org">Debian Hamradio</a> team, maintaining software to be
distributed to Debian, Ubuntu, Raspberry Pi, Mint and more for a decade. I&rsquo;ve
been running a repository of software for the <a href="https://ukpacketradio.network/">UK packet radio
network</a>, and the lessons, sore points and work
from this has naturally expanded into Hibbian.</p>
<p>I run the software I maintain, I run software maintained by others and I try to
make computers do interesting things over radio. In other words, I eat my own
dog food.</p>
<p>Where possible, contributions and modifications will go back to Debian and
software authors.</p>
<h2 id="stand-alone-principles">Stand-Alone Principles</h2>
<p>I don&rsquo;t believe in trusting other companies to host the code, data or the packages on
my behalf - everything is owned and run as &lsquo;Hibbian&rsquo;.</p>
<ul>
<li>You will find the code on our own <a href="https://git.hibbian.org/Hibbian/">git
forge</a>, where bug reports and issues are
welcomed.</li>
<li>You&rsquo;ll find email communication hosted on Hibbian infrastructure</li>
<li>You won&rsquo;t find Hibbian on Discord - try JS8 or Packet.</li>
</ul>
<p>When all else fails, somehow I&rsquo;ll still be able to continue and communicate.</p>
<h1 id="two-ways-to-install">Two Ways to Install</h1>
<p>There are two ways to run the Hibbian collection of software - as a repository
for your existing OS, or as a complete OS itself.</p>
<h2 id="repo">Repo</h2>
<p>Can&rsquo;t run the whole thing or don&rsquo;t want to commit? Don&rsquo;t worry - I ship software
in the &lsquo;repo&rsquo; for Debian &amp; Raspberry Pi. You can pick and choose the latest
packages to be delivered straight to your computer and not have to reinstall
anything.</p>
<ul>
<li>Bullseye - 11 - Oldstable</li>
<li>Bookworm - 12 - Stable</li>
<li>Trixie - 13 Testing</li>
</ul>
<p>To learn more, see the installation pages on the
<a href="https://guide.hibbian.org/repo/">guide</a>.</p>
<h2 id="full-distro">Full Distro</h2>
<p>For those who want a more convenient option, the full Hibbian distribution based
on Debian Bookworm for x86_64 and Raspberry Pi will arrive later this year.</p>
