Release: WSJT-X 2.3.0-rc2
Nov 16, 2020
-------------------------
WSJT-X 2.3.0 Release Candidate 2 fixes issues found in RC1 and
includes some new functionality that missed the RC1 cut off deadline.
- Dropped audio samples message box removed, warnings and errors for
these are now sent to the WSJT-X system log.
- FST4W spots to WSPRNet.org will be augmented such that the server
can distinguish the mode being spotted. Spots to WSPRNet.org will
no longer be restricted to WSPR sub-bands.
- A new internal system and data logging facility used to provide
trace, debug, information, warning, error, and fatal error
messages. The verbosity and filtering of messages is user definable
via a configuration file. Without a configuration file a basic log
is written with information, warning and error messages only. Log
files are automatically rotated to limit disk usage.
- Due to some users using inappropriate multicast IP addresses for
their interoperating severs the default behaviour now is to only
send multicast UDP datagrams to the loop-back network interface.
Users who require WSJT-X UDP Message Protocol datagrams to reach
other hosts will now have to configure WSJT-X to send on an
appropriate network interface, and use an appropriately scoped
multicast group address for their server applications. If you are
not sure then 224.0.0.1 (or ff02::1 if IPv6 is desired) is a safe
choice.
