Changes in WSJT 5.9.5 (r236): August 3, 2006
|
||||
---------------------------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
WSJT v5.9.5 r236 contains some major improvements for JT65 and a
|
||||
number of smaller enhancements affecting other modes.
|
||||
|
||||
1. Changes to the JT65 Deep Search decoder have made it slightly more
|
||||
sensitive, on average. More importantly, the number of false
|
||||
decodes has been dramatically reduced. JT65 decoding can be as
|
||||
much as 3 times faster than before. For these reasons alone, you
|
||||
should be sure to upgrade if you use JT65.
|
||||
|
||||
2. A more useful menu of JT65 decoding options is provided. You may
|
||||
now select "No Deep Search", "Normal Deep Search", "Aggressive Deep
|
||||
Search", or "Include Average in Aggressive Deep Search".
|
||||
|
||||
3. The two end-of-line numbers (formerly displayed only if Aggressive
|
||||
was checked) are now always displayed in JT65 mode. The first
|
||||
number is 1 if the Koetter-Vardy decoder succeeded, 0 otherwise.
|
||||
The second number is the confidence level of the Deep Search
|
||||
decoding (if enabled) on a 0 to 10 scale.
|
||||
|
||||
4. The JT65 AFC function has been rewritten. Drifting signals
|
||||
(including Doppler-induced drifts at 1296 MHz) will usually decode
|
||||
better with AFC turned on.
|
||||
|
||||
5. Mode JT65C, which is used primarily at 1296 MHz, has been improved
|
||||
in several ways. Synchronizing is better by about 1 "sync" unit,
|
||||
and signal strengths are measured more reliably. Decoding of
|
||||
shorthand messages is improved.
|
||||
|
||||
6. When compiled for Linux and FreeBSD (see note below), WSJT now
|
||||
allows use of parallel as well as serial ports for T/R control.
|
||||
|
||||
7. Wave files are now saved correctly in Linux and FreeBSD versions.
|
||||
|
||||
8. Support has been added for extra-long callsigns such as
|
||||
VU4AN/VU3RYF. The full augmented callsign must be no longer than
|
||||
12 characters. Enter the special add-on DXCC prefix or callsign
|
||||
(in this case, VU4AN) on the Setup | Options page.
|
||||
|
||||
9. If the "Grid" box on main WSJT window is blank, displayed values of
|
||||
Doppler and df/dt will be those of your own echoes.
|
||||
|
||||
10. If the ToRadio box is blank, "Mon_" (rather than "_" is now used
|
||||
as the naming prefix for recorded wave files.
|
||||
|
||||
11. The birdie-killing "Zap" feature has been changed so that if
|
||||
Freeze is ON, nothing is zapped within Tol of the Freeze DF. In
|
||||
addition, the Zap behavior no longer depends on previous decoding
|
||||
history.
|
||||
|
||||
12. Bug fix: previously, if Freeze had been checked while operating in
|
||||
another mode, Zap no longer worked correctly in FSK441 mode. This
|
||||
has been fixed.
|
||||
|
||||
13. The selection of data for mouse-picked decodes in JT6M mode has
|
||||
been corrected. (In recent versions it was necessary to click a
|
||||
few seconds to the right of a signal enhancement.)
|
||||
|
||||
14. The logic that limits search for JT6M synchronization to a range
|
||||
of frequencies (+/- Tol around FreezeDF) has been corrected. A
|
||||
small green tick at the left edge of the main graphical area
|
||||
indicates the FreezeDF frequency. The FreezeDF value is also
|
||||
displayed digitally in the status bar. You can change FreezeDF
|
||||
with the left/right keyboard arrows. Default settings for JT6M are
|
||||
now Tol=200, Freeze On, MouseDF=0.
|
||||
|
||||
15. If mouse-picked decoding was invoked, all wave files were
|
||||
previously saved even if "Save none" was selected on the menu.
|
||||
This has been fixed.
|
||||
|
||||
16. On your first start-up with version 5.9.5, be sure to re-enter
|
||||
your correct PTT port number on the Setup | Options page. Under
|
||||
Linux or FreeBSD, enter the appropriate device name, for example
|
||||
/dev/ttyS0.
|
||||
|
||||
Special note to Linux and FreeBSD users
|
||||
---------------------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
WSJT is now being used by a number of people on Linux or FreeBSD
|
||||
systems. Appearance and operational behavior is essentially identical
|
||||
to the Windows version. At present you must compile the yourself for
|
||||
Linix or FreeBSD. Instructions are available, and others who have
|
||||
succeeded will help you if help is needed. This is not necessarily a
|
||||
trivial task, however.
|
||||
|
||||
Packaged versions of WSJT for specific *nix distributions may be
|
||||
provided if there is sufficient demand.
|
||||
|
||||
For more information on WSJT for Linux and FreeBSD, or if you want to
|
||||
try compiling the program for Mac OS/X, contact the WSJT development
|
||||
team at wsjt-devel@lists.berlios.de.
|
||||
|
||||
WSJT is Open Source software. The source code and related materials
|
||||
can be found at http://developer.berlios.de/projects/wsjt/.

Changes in WSJT 5.9.4 (r159): April 11, 2006
|
||||
---------------------------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
This is a maintenance release.
|
||||
|
||||
1. Problems exhibited on some computers with dual or "hyperthreading"
|
||||
CPUs have been fixed (or at least reduced, see below).
|
||||
|
||||
2. Problems with reading previously recorded files (such as the sample
|
||||
files in the WSJT tutorial) have been fixed.
|
||||
|
||||
3. Bad data could cause an error message "Error in KV decoder, or no
|
||||
KV decoder present" in the console window. Fixed.
|
||||
|
||||
4. The delay between PTT assertion and start of Tx Audio, and the
|
||||
delay between end of Tx Audio and release of PTT, have been increased
|
||||
by 0.2 s. In addition, a bug in the T/R timing logic was fixed.
|
||||
|
||||
5. There was a minor bug in computing the position of the moon. (The
|
||||
displayed Az and El of the "home station" were correct for a time 100
|
||||
seconds earlier than the actual time.) This has been fixed. In
|
||||
addition, refraction adjustments are no longer made in the Sun and
|
||||
Moon elevations.
|
||||
|
||||
6. A minor bug when displaying large negative Doppler shifts in the
|
||||
file azel.dat has been fixed.
|
||||
|
||||
7. As an aid to future development of WSJT, the program is now capable
|
||||
of transmitting "test files" with arbitrary audio content.
|
||||
|
||||
NOTE: If you have a computer with multiple CPUs or a CPU with
|
||||
hyperthreading, and if WSJT 5.9.4 does not run properly for you,
|
||||
please reboot your machine, enter the BIOS Setup screen, disable
|
||||
hyperthreading, and see if WSJT then runs properly. Then let me know
|
||||
the results of this test. Note: you will probably notice very little
|
||||
(if any) degradation in performance by leaving hyperthreading turned
|
||||
off. For now, this is the recommended procedure if you have problems
|
||||
with it turned on.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Changes in WSJT 5.9.3: January 26, 2006
|
||||
---------------------------------------
|
||||
This is a minor maintenance release.
|
||||
@ -8,9 +146,8 @@ This is a minor maintenance release.
|
||||
2. The occasional error message about "images do not match" has been
|
||||
trapped and should no longer occur.
|
||||
|
||||
3. Code that required one's own grid locator to be entered with first
|
||||
two letters in upper case, last two in lower case, has been made
|
||||
case insensitive (as it should have been).
|
||||
3. It is no longer necessary to enter one's own grid locator with the
|
||||
first two letters in upper case and the last two in lower case.
|
||||
|
||||
4. Initialization of the PTT line to the "OFF" state has been fixed.
