6424b4986f Improved frequency calibration
Measure check  box added to FreqCal  mode, check to record  to fmt.all
with  current  calibration correction  disabled,  uncheck  to see  the
impact of the current calibration parameters.

The  fmt.all  file  is  now  optionally  renamed  to  fmt.bak  when  a
calibration solution  is accepted.  This allows  users to  preserve an
fmt.all file that they might have edited for best fit.

A calibration procedure might proceed thus:-

1) select FreqCal mode,

2) step through suggested  calibration test frequencies deleting those
that have no usable signal,

3) enable "Menu->Tools->Execute frequency calibration cycle" and check
that suitable signals are present,

4) select a suitable FTol and T/R period,

5) check  "Measure" and let the  cycle complete a few  times to gather
data,

6) uncheck "Measure" to complete the data capture, optionally tidy the
fmt.all file with your favourite editor,

7) push "Menu->Tools->Solve for  calibration parameters" and accept if
you like what you see,

8) sit back and admire your accurately frequency calibrated station.

d7baae12f8 Another try at optimizing the GUI for simplex and split behavior. Details below:
1. Checkbox "Double-click on call sets Tx and Rx freqs" has been removed
from the Settings -> General tab.

2. Checkbox "Lock Tx Freq" on main window is relabled "Hold Tx Freq".

3. Behavior now defaults to the "simplex" behavior in use up to code
revision r8123.  In particular, double-clicking on decoded mesages
that do not contain your own call moves both Rx and Tx frequencies.
If the first callsign is your own call, only Rx freq moves.

4. If "Hold Tx Freq" is checked, double-clicking on decoded messages
moves the Rx frequency; Tx frequency is moved only if CTRL was held
down.

5. Clicking on the waterfall moves Rx and Tx frequencies as before:
Rx only on a simple click, Tx only on SHIFT-click, and both on
CTRL-click.  This happens even if "Hold Tx Freq" is checked (which
is why this box is no longer labeled "Lock Tx Freq").

94cec5bdc1 IARU region specific working frequencies
Working  frequencies can  be for  all regions  or for  individual IARU
regions. This allows each mode band  tuple to have one or more working
frequencies which  can include local  ones only offered when  the user
configures their IARU region.

Change  working  frequency  default   suggestions  to  better  fit  in
FT8. General  rule is FT8  is at JT65 -2kHz  except where that  is not
possible e.g. where  that would fall into a segment  not allocated for
narrow band data modes. For tight  bands like top band sqeeze existing
JT65 and JT allocations to allow space for FT8.

NOTE: this change changes the WSPR frequency on 80m to allow access to
JA stations that currently have no allocation where it was placed.

ALSO NOTE: the JT65 and JT9 frequencies for 80m move down 6 kHz, again
to  accommodate region  3  users. Other  appliactions  not within  our
control should be asked to move in step when 1.8.0 is released.

0e214efb9c Rework install locations for better flexibility
Using the  CMake module  GNUInstallDirs to  set up  standard locations
which allows  better customisation for packagers  building for various
distributions.

The change does change some internal package file paths and will leave
some  files  in  old   locations  in  Windows  installations.  Running
uninstall  is probably  wise  on Windows  before  installing this  new
package layout if future clean uninstalls are desired.

Linux and other  *nix package maintainers can use  the CMake variables
CMAKE_INSTALL_xxx to vary the install paths of various components. See
the  CMake GNUInstallDirs  module documentation  for more  details. An
example might be for Slackware where package documents are expected to
be                            installed                           into
<install-prefix>/doc/<package-name>-<package-version>/ whereas the GNU
default         is         to        install         them         into
<install-prefix>/share/doc/<package-name>/.  To achieve  this set  the
CMake variable CMAKE_INSTALL_DOCDIR as follows when configuring:

cmake -D CMAKE_INSTALL_DOCDIR:PATH=doc/wsjtx-1.7.1 -D CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX= ...

cecc098924 First attempt at a UI phase compensation tool for MSK144
This builds on the static phase compensation in the MSK144 decoder and
the phase  analysis and  polynomial fitting  capabilities also  in teh
MSK144 decoder,  by allowing  captured data to  be selected  for phase
equalization from the WSJT-X UI.

Reads  captured phase  compensation  curve  estimate files  containing
fitted  polynomial coefficients  and measured  phase data  from MSK144
receptions. Intent  is to select a  compensation curve that is  from a
known transmitter like  an SDR which have good  phase linearity. Phase
plots and compensation polynomials may be viewed and compared with the
current compensation polynomial. A  suitable polynomial can be applied
to be use in all further decoding of MSK144 signals.

Plots of  the currently  selected polynomial  and its  modified higher
order terms  polynomial which is  actually used in  equalization (this
plot may  be dropped - it  is just for  kicks at the moment).   When a
captured phase analysis file is loaded plots of the measured phase and
the proposed best fit polynomial are shown.

Basic  maintenance  is also  included  allowing  clearing and  loading
captured  plots and  an option  to revert  to a  flat no  equalization
curve.

More to come on this as  amplitude equalization is also possible, this
will probably  be similar, maybe even  plotted on the same  graph with
dual  axes  for phase  and  amplitude.   Amplitude correction  from  a
measured  reference   spectrum  could  be  viewed   and  selected  for
equalization for all modes. TBC...

This   change    also   introduces    the   QCustomPlot    3rd   party
widget. Currently this  is statically linked from a  qcp library built
by the WSJT-X CMake script. This will probably be migrated to a shared
object (DLL) build as a CMake external project, once some CMake script
re-factoring  has been  completed,  which  is more  in  line with  the
QCustomPlot author's  intentions. This  will allow efficient  reuse in
other tools shipped with WSJT-X.

ee7aa0d31e Track rig mode
I can't remember exactly why mode tracking was disabled but it doesn't

424ed88645 Take advantage of the forthcommng DX Lab Commander enhancement
V12.2.6 of  teh DX Lab Suite  Commander finally has a  way to suppress
mode rationalization  when setting  the split  Tx frequency.  This now
means that we  can now honor the  radio setting to not  change the rig
modulation mode. This  should help with a number of  rigs that require
different modes  on teh Tx and  Rx VFOs for optimal  wide band digital
operation.  This   will  also  help   with  some  rig   and  interface
combinations that lock  up or otherwise misbehave when  setting the Tx
VFO mode at certain times with respect to other rig control commands.

This change also improves mode  setting in general hopefully closing a
few corner case issues when starting  up and when transmitting for the
first time in a session.

Included  is  the  latest  DX  Lab  Suite  Commander  TCP/IP  commands
documentation correct for v12.2.6.

Also added  a new configuration query  method to check if  Rig is None
i.e. a dummy rig.

f7b02f8296 Ensure that rig control split and mode are only changed when allowed
Only when split  operating is not none should split  be touched on the
rig, likewise only  when Settings->Radio->Mode is not  none should the
rig mode be touched.

2cfbb15b4f Rig control overhaul to implement generic Doppler shift tracking
The  concept of  a nominal  receive  and transmit  frequency has  been
introduced. This is  used as a base frequency  for Doppler correction,
frequency setting  and reporting. The  start up frequency is  now zero
which is  updated by the first  rig control status report.  This needs
more  work to  accommodate  calling frequency  plus working  frequency
operation as is used for random MS operation etc..

The  main  window  frequency  display  now  shows  the  transmit  dial
frequency while transmitting.

The mode changing logic sequence has been changed such that the rig is
correctly put  into and  taken out  of split mode  as required  by the
target mode.  This also  avoids the "other"  VFO having  its frequency
changed when  entering a mode that  does not use split  operating like
WSPR.

The main window  band combo box edit  may now be used to  input an kHz
offset  from the  current MHz  dial  frequency. This  is intended  for
setting  a sked  or working  frequency on  the VHF  and up  bands. For
example the working frequency for 23cms  might be set to 1296MHz and a
working  frequency of  1296.3MHz would  be selected  by selecting  the
23cms band  with the combo box  drop down list and  then entering 300k
into the band combo box edit widget.

When using JT4 modes a CTRL+Click on the waterfall adjusts the nominal
frequency such  that the frequency  clicked on  becomes the Tx  and Rx
frequency using  the fixed 1000Hz  DF that  JT4 modes use.   This will
probably be extended to all QSO modes when used in VHF & up mode. This
assumes that 1000Hz is an optimal DF  for both Tx and Rx and therefore
one  can "net"  to an  off frequency,  but visible  on the  waterfall,
caller with one click.

Improvements to OmniRig  rig control including use of  the serial port
control lines RTS or DTR, on the  CAT serial port used by OmniRig, for
PTT control.

Incrementing transaction sequence numbers added to messages to and from
the rig control  thread. This enables round trip status  to be tracked
and associated with a request. For  example a command that might cause
several  asynchronous  status  updates  can  now  be  tracked  in  the
originating thread such  that it is clear which updates  are caused by
executing the  request. This in turn  allows updates to be  held until
the request is complete i.e. the  state is consistent with the results
of the request.

Messages  to the  rig control  thread are  now posted  as a  new state
(Transceiver::TransceiverState) object. The  rig control thread tracks
requests and  actions any differences  between the prior  requests and
the new state.

The rig  control thread is now  stored on the  heap so that it  can be
closed down  and released as needed.  Along with this the  rig control
close  down  semantics  are  better defined  avoiding  some  potential
deadlock situations.

If the rig  is placed into split  mode it will be  reverted to simplex
mode when the rig connection is closed.

When  using direct  rig control  via Hamlib,  rigs that  have A/B  VFO
arrangements and  no method to query  the current VFO like  many Icoms
and  the Yaesu  FT-817/857/897(D)  series now  have smarted  frequency
updating requiring no  VFO changes when changing  the frequency.  This
is particularly  important when doing  Tx Doppler correction  to avoid
glitches.

The implementation  of emulated  split operating  mode ("Fake  It") is
simplified and improved.

A dummy  Hamlib transceiver for PTT  control on a separate  port is no
long instantiated if CAT or VOX PTT control is selected.

The resolution and  any rounding of the rig CAT  frequency set and get
commands is determined automatically  upon opening the rig connection.
This is needed to determine the  rate of frequency updates for Doppler
tracking. It also allows the rig to be more accurately controlled.

Frequency  calibration is  calculated separately  for the  receive and
transmit frequencies.

Whether  the  rig  modulation  mode  should be  controlled  is  now  a
constructor  argument rather  than  being passed  with individual  rig
control requests.

Doppler  shift  correction  is   considerably  enhanced  with  simpler
controls and much  better rig control.  A new mode  of tracking called
"receive only" is introduced for those with rigs that cannot be QSY:ed
via  CAT  when transmitting.   Such  rigs  have a  Doppler  correction
calculated  for the  middle of  the next  transmit period  just before
transmission starts. While  using Doppler tracking it  is now possible
to adjust the  sked frequency either using the new  kHz offset feature
of the main  window band combo box  or by directly tuning  the rig VFO
knob while holding down the CTRL key.

The astronomical data window that includes Doppler tracking control is
now opened  and closed using a  checkable menu item to  avoid it being
accidentally closed.

Debug  configuration  rig  control  diagnostic  messages  now  have  a
facility argument for clearer and more standardized trace messages.

d864e7f4cb Allow split operating for "None" rig, use for testing only not for release
Setting  the  CMake  option WSJT_RIG_NONE_CAN_SPLIT=ON  will  buold  a
version taht allows split operating with  the dummy rig. This must not
be shipped since it will generate incorrect Tx tones.
