Release: WSJT-X 2.5.2
Oct 29, 2021
----------------------
This is mostly a bug fix release. It has the following changes since
release 2.5.1:
- Repair a longstanding regression that caused signal reports from
tail-ended Tx2 messages to be omitted from logged information
- Repair a regression associated with setting the main window width
on program startup.
- Repair a problem with Q65 decodes of type 'q3' for messages of the
form "<Call_1> Call_2"
- Implement Q65 decodes of type 'q3' for the message "TNX 73 GL".
- Execute code associated with Q65 decodes of type 'q5' only when the
Max Drift control is set to 50. This fix prevents
double-incrementing of the message averaging counter on the first
decoding sequence.
- Polarization offset 'Dpol' from the astronomical data window is now
written to file azel.dat if environment variable
WSJT_AZEL_EXTRA_LINES has been defined as 1 or greater. Dpol is
especially useful for EME on the higher microwave bands.
- The Auto Log QSO option in "Settings->Reporting" now behaves the
same as the Prompt to log QSO option when not in a special
operating context mode.
- New hamlib code to correct minor flaws in controlling several rigs.
- Update the Chinese and Hong Kong translations of the user
interface.
- Note that since the WSJT-X v2.5.0 GA release we have not been
providing pre-built 32-bit packages for Linux on Intel CPUs, this
is due to the mainstream Linux Desktop distributions no longer
providing updates for 32-bit only systems. 32-bit WSJT-X can still
be built for Linux Intel and is supported at least until some
prerequisite package is no longer available.
