Time sync issue with JTDX - SDR Console - Adalm Pluto

    • New

    Hi All


    I am trying to find a way to solve an issue I am having,


    My setup is a Adam Pluto Controlled by SDRconsole and I am running JTDX and JTsync on my PC


    Now when I sync the time on the PC to the server I am seeing the FT8 stations have a dt between 0.8 - 1.1


    I can then Sync that to 0.0 using JT Sync,


    Problem is that my TX time is off it will now be +1.2 compared to my RX


    That is getting near the point of not being decoded on the other end,


    So basically why am I seeing a difference between RX and TX sync and is there anything I can do to solve this,


    FT8 isn't too bad but I find that I can not work stations unless I spend some time with a the online SDR on another PC and mess with the time sync to get my signal to decode,


    I have no issues using FT8 on HF and I have a good understanding of the JTDX software as I make thousands of QSO's per year on FT8,


    If anyone can offer any advice that would be great,


    Thanks
