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.

Two new validator classes CallsignValidator and
MaidenheadLocatorValidator are introduced and used in the
Configuration and MainWindow implementations.
MaidenheadLocatorValidator supports different lengths and minimum
required lengths with a default of subsquare with square being
required.
The message_aggregator application has been enhanced to show the
current DX call and DX grid as shown in the WSJT-X main window.

Instead of using the Qt QMessageBox class directly a new class

The watchdog configuration is now a spin box of minutes with a special
first value of disabled. WSJT-X counts down minutes on the minute, if
the countdown reaches zero any attempt to transmit is aborted. The
countdown is reset by any mouse press or key press event inside the
main window or if the Tx message changes (auto sequencing).
The status bar now shows the Tx watchdog countdown if it is
active. This information is shown to the right of the progress bar
text.
The warning message boxes triggered within the GUI update routine now
no longer block the GUI updates.

Changing configuration causes WSJT-X and JTAlert to get into a fight
for the temporary directory. By moving the creation and clearup of the
temporary directory outside of the configurations loop this issue is
minimized to no worse than before multiple configurations were added.

i.e. a dummy rig.

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.
git-svn-id: svn+ssh://svn.code.sf.net/p/wsjt/wsjt/branches/wsjtx@6597 ab8295b8-cf94-4d9e-aec4-7959e3be5d79
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.

Cooperating applications that use file watchers can inadvertently lock
the temporary directory which defers deletion of it when WSJT-X
exits. This is OK until WSJT-X is restarted when it finds the
directory but it is locked for all access by the operating system
since it is pending deletion. There is no way around this short of
closing the offending application so a message to that effect is given
with a retry option.

Qt makes sure a widget's window is displayed on a display if the
display configuration changes while it is running. If the display
configuration changes while the application is not running then only
QWidget::saveGeometry() and QWidget::restoreGeometry() will ensure
that the widget's window is correctly displayed if the original
display is no longer present.

This change allows serial control lines to be forced high or low (DTR

powered interfaces.

The header QMetaType must now be included explicitly if no other
header includes QObject.
Adjust band combo box layout settings to ensure it is rendered at
minimum content size otherwise it stretches the signal meter width to
an ugly extent.
Also retired the "frequencies" settings file key so that upgrades and
downgrades between 1.5 and 1.6 no longer require rebuilding the
working frequencies list.

The Rx meter is now a better Qt citizen and can be resized. Added a
more obvious peak signal indicator. It is now a custom widget derived
from QFrame and is now directly added via promotion in Designer.
Added a custom widget to act as a letter spin box, this is used for
sub mode control. Switched the frequency tolerance widget to a combo
box with preset values so that it is more uniform across systems and
font sizes.
Added container widgets for group control of various UI widgets such
as QSO controls, DX call controls and WSPR controls. Introduced a
stacked widget to allow the WSPR controls to be swapped in in place of
the "QSO" controls. The "QSO" controls are are the Rx, Tx and related
controls along with the main tab widget with the message buttons and
fields. This means that the WSPR version of the main window (and EME
Echo mode) are now much cleaner.
Increased the size of the rig control widget and styled its colour
using a dynamic property so that it can be defined in the Designer UI
definition. Reinstated it as a push button to do a rig control reset
and retry after an error.
Reset most UI widgets to default properties, particularly removing any
fixed sizes so that they can resize freely when fonts are changed. The
overall layout is now controlled almost exclusively by stretch factors
on some of the rows and columns of the various grid layout managers.

Somehow I had decided that the offset could be determined from the
frequency coming from the rig, this is of course impossible so the
code now reverts to saving the offset used for the last frequency set
and sticks with it until another frequency is set.

The settings are a linear calibration correction for the
rig. Calibration constants are supplied as an intercept error in Hertz
and a slope error in parts per million.
The correction is applied only to the final frequencies going to and
from the radio. This means that any transverter offsets are not
corrected. This is appropriate as each transverter will have its own
error factors. Transvertor and other individual band specific errors
can only be corrected by adjusting the offset for the band.
Thanks to Mike W9MDB for an initial implementation of Joe K1JT's
suggestion. See also the WSPR documentation for details of calculating
the required calibration constants.
