💖 JS8CALL 💖

okay bestie, pull up a chair, grab ur hydration, because we're talking about JS8Call, which lives in section 1 of the manual (JS8CALL(1), iykyk) 🎀

✨ NAME ✨

JS8Call — the Amateur Radio Digital Mode that's out here providing weak signal messaging 📡💫

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

JS8Call

that's it. that's the whole synopsis. no flags, no args, just vibes ✨

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

JS8Call is using the JS8 Digital Mode to provide weak signal keyboard-to-keyboard messaging to Amateur Radio Operators. like, literally two humans, two keyboards, and a whole lot of signal-hopping across the void 🫶

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. so it's giving FT8's resilience but make it chat 💅

and no, it's not designed for any specific purpose other than connecting amateur radio operators who are operating under weak signal conditions. that's the assignment. that's the whole assignment 👑

and the inspo?? JS8Call is heavily inspired by WSJT-X, Fldigi, and FSQCall and would not exist without the hard work and dedication of the many developers in the amateur radio community. the way they carried this entire thing on their backs 😭🙏 no cap, absolute legends, main character energy, periodt 🌈⭐

💡 fr fr: it's an experiment, bestie — that's not me being shady, that's literally what the page says 🔥
