Release: WSJT-X 2.0
December 10, 2018
-----------------------
WSJT-X 2.0 is a major update that introduces new protocols for FT8 and
MSK144. The new protocols become the world-wide standards on December
10, 2018.
WSJT-X 2.0 cannot communicate in these modes with other stations using
WSJT-X v1.9.1 or earlier.
Please help by urging everyone to upgrade no later than January 1, 2019.
New features since WSJT-X v1.9.1:
1. Compound and nonstandard callsigns are automatically recognized and
handled using new message formats.
2. The new FT8 protocol provides optimized message formats for North
American VHF contests, European VHF contests, ARRL Field Day, and ARRL
RTTY Roundup. Similarly, the new MSK144 protocol provides optimized
message formats for North American VHF and European VHF contests.
Full support is provided for "/R" and "/P" calls in the relevant
contests.
3. The new protocols provide nearly equal (or better) sensitivity
compared to the old ones, and lower false decode rates.
4. New logging features are provided for contesting and for "Fox"
(DXpedition) mode. Logging is optionally integrated with N1MM Logger+
and WriteLog.
5. Color highlighting of decoded messages provides worked-before
status for callsigns, grid locators, DXCC entities, continents, CQ
Zones, and ITU zones on a “by band” and “by mode” basis, and for
stations that have uploaded their logs to Logbook of the World (LoTW)
within a specified time interval.
6. The WSPR decoder now achieves decodes down to S/N = -31 dB. For
the particular benefit of LF/MF users, an option "No own call decodes"
has been added.
7. The UDP messages sent to companion programs have been expanded and
improved.
Some details of changes since WSJT-X-rc5 include the following:
- Initial load of ADIF log in background
- Correct the UTC displayed in Fox/Contest log
- Faster entry and correct scrolling for Fox/Contest log
- Add contest exchanges and contest type to UDP logged QSO message
- Fix a bug that suppressed decodes with negative DT.
- AK and HI are DXCCs, not states, for RTTY Roundup
- Fix improper truncation of some non-FT8 messages in ALL.TXT
- Various minor bug fixes and code cleanup
- Update the WSJT-X User Guide to v2.0 (more to come...)
- Update cty.dat
Release: WSJT-X 2.0-rc5
November 26, 2018
-----------------------
Release Candidate 5 ("RC5") is stable, works well, and fixes the known
problems in RC4. It is likely that the General Availability (GA)
release of WSJT-X 2.0 will be nearly identical to RC5.
Changes from WSJT-X 2.0-rc4 include the following:
- Make the "Auto Seq" checkbox sticky, again
- Remove the 5-minute mouse timer
- Correct the "worked before" logic for color highlighting
- Add "No own call decodes" checkbox in WSPR mode
- Display and log UTC (not local time) in contest operations
- Validate contest QSO details before allowing logging
- Force Aqua theme on macOS to avoid issues with Mojave dark theme
- Move Fox log Reset action to Fox log window context menu
- Improve layout of Working Frequencies and Station Information tables
- Allow deletes and editing in Fox and Contest log windows
- Add Tool Tips for Fox and Contest log windows
- Fix a bug causing false AP decodes in JT65 VHF+ operation
- Fix a bug that could switch unexpectedly from JT65 to JT9 mode
PLEASE NOTE: As far as WSJT-X 2.0 (RC4, RC5, and GA releases) are
concerned, signals using the old FT8 protocol are undecodable
interference. This means that regenerated replicas cannot be
subtracted from received data, and consequently second- and third-pass
decodes may be impeded. Full performance of the 77-bit decoder will
not be realized until most signals on a crowded band are using the
new FT8 protocol.
Release: WSJT-X 2.0-rc4
November 12, 2018
-----------------------
Changes from WSJT-X Version 2.0.0-rc3 include the following:
- Fix the "cannot open file fort.81" bug

- Fix the auto-generated messages for nonstandard callsigns
- Remove all support for the legacy FT8 protocol
- Disallow selecting MSK144 with RTTY or Field Day messages active
- Correct and expand support for color highlighting decoded messages
- ESC key aborts a QSO, clears DX Call, and selects Tx6
- Disable "nextCall" procedure for RTTY contest; it still needs work
- Correct a flaw in handling MSK144 Sh messages
- Prevent Fox from inadvertently toggling Tx 1st/Even
- Re-organize the Fox/Hound/Contest selection boxes
- Improve the validators for contest exchange boxes
- Disable Tx after 5 minutes of no mouse movement

- Fix two sequencing flaws after double-clicks on a decoded msg
- New facilities for Contest and Fox-mode logging

Release: WSJT-X 2.0-rc2
September 25, 2018
-----------------------
Changes from WSJT-X Version 2.0.0-rc1 include the following:
- Corrected a flaw that encoded a message's first callsign as
hexadecimal telemetry data if the call consisted only of letters
A-F and digits 0-9.
- Corrected program logic that failed to identify certain callsigns
as "nonstandard".
- Fixed a bug that color-highlighted bare CQ messages (no grid
locator) as "New DXCC".
- Fixed a bug that failed to log Report Sent if MyCall is a
nonstandard call.
- Fixed a bug that generated incorrect MSK144 tones for certain
messages and caused a "memory" effect on stations receiving the
incorrect tones.
- Fixed several bugs that could cause certain Tx messages to crash
the program.
- Suppressed the display of certain illogical false decodes.
Release: WSJT-X 2.0-rc1
