Release: WSJT-X 2.7.0-rc1
|
||||
May 12, 2023
|
||||
-------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
WSJT-X_v2.7.0-rc1 is the first Release Candidate that introduces a new QMAP
|
||||
program. The target application is EME. Besides that, there are a number of
|
||||
other enhancements and fixes.
|
||||
|
||||
- New QMAP program:
|
||||
- QMAP is an independent program but is expected to be used cooperatively
|
||||
with WSJT-X. QMAP acts as a wideband decoder for one of the 60-second
|
||||
submodes of Q65. Decoding results are shared with WSJT-X, which manages
|
||||
operator interactions and rig control.
|
||||
- WSJT-X can cooperate with QMAP via shared memory. In such operation WSJT-X
|
||||
provides a narrow (up to 5 kHz) view in which to conduct EME QSOs with
|
||||
full Doppler control, T/R switching, message sequencing, etc., and QMAP
|
||||
provides a wideband (90 kHz) view of all digital EME activity on the band.
|
||||
- The Q65 decoder has been enhanced for better performance. These improvements
|
||||
apply to decodes made in WSJT-X and also to those made in QMAP, which uses
|
||||
the identical downstream code.
|
||||
- QMAP provides most of the capabilities of map65, excert for adaptive
|
||||
polarization.
|
||||
|
||||
- New Q65 Pileup mode, designed to help manage weak-signal pileup situations such
|
||||
as those experienced by 6-meter EME DXpeditions. Messages exchange 4-character
|
||||
locators rather than signal reports. Decoder "memory" provides q3-level
|
||||
sensitivity for up to 40 callers decoded at least once in the past 24 hours,
|
||||
and for whom the Moon is above the horizon.
|
||||
|
||||
- More efficient spotting to PSK Reporter. The transmission is now spread in time
|
||||
and redundant spots are removed, which will hopefully lead to a noticeably lower
|
||||
load for PSK Reporter.
|
||||
|
||||
- Support of the HamSCI Festivals of Eclipse Ionospheric Science: Temporarily,
|
||||
during the upcoming solar eclipses, spots are transmitted more frequently to
|
||||
PSK Reporter where this data is collected and used for analysis.
|
||||
|
||||
- WSJT-X is now able to process more than 100 FT8 decodes per period.
|
||||
|
||||
- Further improvements to the Fox mode:
|
||||
- Better internal handling of the two queues.
|
||||
- The Fox Log window now displays statistical data on the QSO rate.
|
||||
|
||||
- When the location is changed (e.g during portable operations) an updated grid
|
||||
will be sent to PSK Reporter.
|
||||
|
||||
- The cty.dat file can now be updated from the settings. Just click the new
|
||||
button on the Colors tab.
|
||||
|
||||
- New status display when fetching a new LotW file.
|
||||
|
||||
- AutoSeq now also accepts MSHV multistream messages when in Hound mode.
|
||||
|
||||
- Better protection against unwanted effects caused by late FT8 decodes.
|
||||
|
||||
- Fixing an inconsistency where in the Contest Name was not correctly
|
||||
remembered.
|
||||
|
||||
- Various other minor fixes and improvements to the code.
|
||||
|
||||
- Updated hyperlinks to our homepage and to our new WSJT GROUP User Forum
|
||||
(https://groups.io/g/wsjtgroup/) can now also be found in the User Guide.
|
||||
|
||||
- Some clarifications to the build instructions for macOS.

||||
