<p>Weak-signal amateur radio communications
|
|
WSJT-X implements amateur radio communication protocols or “modes” 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 (“moonbounce”) 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&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&rsquo;s plenty of options for radio operators to choose from. What makes this one different?

|
Strong Foundations &amp; Long Term Support 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.</description>

|
|
<p>Finally, I’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’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 & Long Term Support</h2>
|
|
<p>The system is built from the ground up on Debian Linux’s Stable release. This
|
|
provides a strong foundation backed with years of security and support.</p>
|
|
<h2 id="modern-software--fast-updates">Modern Software & Fast Updates</h2>
|
|
<p>Debian’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’t in Debian, but still deserve to be distributed
|
|
easily to users. You’ll find them here!</p>
|
|
<h2 id="deep-experience--active-operation">Deep Experience & Active Operation</h2>
|
|
<p>Hibbian is the work of me - <a href="https://foxk.it">hibby</a>. I’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’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’t believe in trusting other companies to host the code, data or the packages on
|
|
my behalf - everything is owned and run as ‘Hibbian’.</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’ll find email communication hosted on Hibbian infrastructure</li>
|
|
<li>You won’t find Hibbian on Discord - try JS8 or Packet.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<p>When all else fails, somehow I’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’t run the whole thing or don’t want to commit? Don’t worry - I ship software
|
|
in the ‘repo’ for Debian & 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>
