     WSJT-X User's Guide

	 sar/K1JT/wsjtx-doc/wsjtx-main-2.7.0-rc7.html

     An alternative JT65 decoder executable kvasd for i386 Ubuntu  is  available
     at http://www.physics.princeton.edu/pulsar/K1JT/kvasd . This decoder is not
     open-source,  is not included in the wsjtx package, and is not required for
     JT65 decoding.

OPTIONS
     -r, --rig-name[=RIGNAME]
	 Enable multiple instances of the wsjtx(1) application	to  run  concur-
	 rently.  Each	RIGNAME must be unique. One instance may use no RIGNAME.
	 If this option is not supplied then only one instance of  wsjtx(1)  may
	 be run at any time.

     -v, --version
	 Display the application version.

     -h,--help
	 Display usage information.

     --test-mode
	 When  this  option  is  provided all writable files will be placed in a
	 special test location (~/.qttest). This option is only for  application
	 testing and is not designed for normal operations.  Use with caution.

FILES
     Most  of  the following files are in a directory path containing the direc-
     tory name WSJT-X[ - RIGNAME] which indicates the value of the command  line
     option  --rig-name=RIGNAME  to indicate multiple instances of wsjtx running
     concurrently. All writable files listed below are therefore unique to  each
     concurrent  instance of wsjtx. If the --rig-name command line option is not
     supplied or the RIGNAME argument is not supplied then the	directory  paths
     below will have the directory WSJT-X.

     ~/.config/WSJT-X[ - RIGNAME].ini
	 This file stores the application configuration settings.

     ~/.local/share/WSJT-X[ - RIGNAME]/ALL.txt
	 ALL.txt  contains  a  record  of  transmitted and received messages and
	 other activity such as frequency or band changes.

     ~/.local/share/WSJT-X[ - RIGNAME]/save/
	 Is the default location for saved .WAV files recorded by  the	applica-
	 tion.	The  .WAV  file save location may be changed in the applications
	 settings dialog.

     ~/.local/share/WSJT-X[ - RIGNAME]/save/samples/
	 Sample .WAV files supplied with the application are found in  this  di-
	 rectory, they may be played back in the application and are referred to
	 in the user guide tutorial sections.

     ~/.local/share/WSJT-X[ -RIGNAME]/timer.out
	 This is a diagnostic file that records decode performance profiling in-
	 formation.

     ~/.local/share/WSJT-X[ - RIGNAME]/cty.dat
	 This  file is not required as a version of it is embedded in the appli-
	 cation, but if you wish an updated  version  can  be  placed  here.  If
	 present  that	version  will be used in preference to the embedded ver-
	 sion.

     ~/.local/share/WSJT-X[ - RIGNAME]/wsjtx.log
	 This is a plain text CSV record of logged QSOs.

     ~/.local/share/WSJT-X[ - RIGNAME]/wsjtx_log.adi
	 This is a record of QSOs logged in the ADIF format  which  is	suitable
	 for import into many Ham Radio logging programs.
