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.

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").
git-svn-id: svn+ssh://svn.code.sf.net/p/wsjt/wsjt/branches/wsjtx@8146 ab8295b8-cf94-4d9e-aec4-7959e3be5d79
1. Checkbox "Lock Tx=Rx" is now labeled "Lock Tx Freq", and its meaning is
quite different. If checked, the audio Tx frequency cannot be changed.
It's like the "Lock" function on some transceivers.
2. Clicking on the Wide Graph waterfall and on lines of decoded text now
behave as follows:
Click on Action
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Waterfall: Click to set Rx frequency
Shift-click to set Tx frequency
Ctrl-click to set Rx and Tx frequencies
If Lock Tx Freq is checked, Tx freq does not move
Double-click to set Rx frequency and decode there
Decoded Text: Double-click to copy transmitting callsign to DX Call
and locator to DX Grid; change Rx frequency to decoded
signal's frequency; generate standard messages.
Tx frequency is not changed unless Ctrl is held down
and Lock Tx Freq not checked.
If this experimental behavior is adopted, some descriptions in the
User Guide and Special Mouse Commands will need to be updated.
3. Starting to implement a new function on the Tools menu,
"Solve for calibration parameters". This is not yet finished;
DO NOT USE in its present form.
git-svn-id: svn+ssh://svn.code.sf.net/p/wsjt/wsjt/branches/wsjtx@8125 ab8295b8-cf94-4d9e-aec4-7959e3be5d79
Double-clicks on 73 messages fixed. Fixed issue with incorrect decode
being selected by double-click. Refined auto-sequencing sign off
handling, any 73 or rr73 free text near Rx or Tx frequency taken as a
73 from QSO partner but if a standard message then must be from QSO
partner.
Moved functionality from MainWindow to DecodedText class.
More efficient picking of messages from decoded text windows by
extracting the text block directly.
Tighten up use of RR73 and skipping Tx1, these are now disabled for
relevant compound calls where they would break the QSO exchange.

Enable or disable by double-clicking the Tx4 button or the adjacent
radio button. Is auto disabled by a band change as it is expected that
the user reassess the conditions to see if message repetitions are
unlikely to be needed.

Enable and disable by double-clicking the Tx1 button or the adjacent
radio button. Tx1 message shows grayed out when the Tx1 message is
elided.

moves the Rx frequency to theirs, this facilitates calling a station
who is busy and may have many callers on their frequency. Updated the
corresponding mouse shortcuts help text.
Allow for times with seconds when parsing fast mode and FT8 decodes.
Exclude the RR73 grid square from and grid validation or matching, it
is not a grid square any more as far as WSJT-X is concerned, it is an
RRR substitute.
Add a simple state machine for QSO progress such that replies and
auto-sequencing can be better controlled.
Get compound callsign edge cases working again and allow QSOs from and
to compound callsign holders working in as many situations as possible
including auto-sequencing and FT8 auto-reply mode. This does mean
that a "DE W6/K1ABC DM93" type message close to a callers Tx or Rx
frequency will be taken as a reply to a CQ call despite it not being
explicitly addressed back to the CQ caller. Compound callsigns should
work in MSK144 contest mode also as well as in short code modes with
some minor restrictions (short codes will not be used where
configuration demands that a message be used to send a full compound
callsign).
Auto sequencing has been made generic such that it can be used for
more than one mode if desired.
Allow the use of free text messages to sign off in auto sequenced QSOs
without the message being overwritten by the sequencer. Double click
actions have been added to the Tx5 radio and push buttons to revert
back to the default standard 73 message.
Make DisplayText class interface more idiomatic C++ and simplify a
bit.
Fixed some displayed widget arrangements for different modes and
sub-modes so that they are consistent when starting up and when
switching mode or sub-mode.
This is a big change which has been extensively tested but no doubt
there will also be some new defects introduced.

These were using a hijacked custom spin box that was designed only for
letters i.e. submodes. Now there are two new custom spin boxes.
HistedSpinBox:- can be set with a list of integer values which the
step up and down will follow. Optionally limits the maximum and
minimum value to the upper and lower bounds of the values set. Note
that intermediate values are still valid.
RestrictedSpinBox:- more like a combo box because the provided values
are the only ones that can be set.
HintedSpinBox is used for the frequency tolerance and
RestrictedSpinBox is used for T/R period.

More to come on this but should get Tab 2 basically working with
MSK144 running from a calling frequency.

Ctrl+M (Cmd+M) was being used as a menu shortcut and in key press
event handlers which leads to inconsistent behaviour on some
platforms. Removed menu action shortcut.
Also tidied up handling of the hide controls menu action by making it
a checkable action and using its checked state to store the control
hiding state.

1. Level meter range increased to 0-90 dB.
2. Level meter reading is independent of slider setting.
3. For a trial period: thermometer bar goes red if a 16-bit sample
is within 5 dB A/D limit.
4. Slider can be used to adjust levels sent to waterfall.
5. Tx6 message is selected on program startup.
Thanks to W9MDB for most of this code.

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.

1. Menu item *Tools -> Execute frequency calibration cycle* is renamed and checkable. Cycling does not start until checked.
2. Ctrl+F10 now allows you to cycle manually through the list of calibration frequencies.
3. Calibration sequence lengths can be set to 5, 10, 15, or 30 s with the sbTR spinBox.
Also: don't set sbTR index to 0 when entering a slow mode.

... rather than the working frequency.
Users set their working frequency and specify a calling frequency as a
kHz offset into the current Rx MHz with the main window spin box.
Calling CQ on the specified calling frequency is enabled by checking
the associated option.
Also enhanced the auto sequencing to handle short code 73 messages
correctly.

This option, on by default, maintains backwards compatibility for
non-compound callsign holders. If switched off and they have
specified a 6 digit grid then it will be sent in the type 2 protocol
using two messages and a hashed callsign.

Fix the improper display of "Fast" checkbox.
Disable "CQ nnn" checkbox if MyCall is not K1JT or K9AN.
Use AppDir as path to execute the LDPC encode program.
Don't display submodes in mode label for JTMSK, MSK144.
Make Rx Freq spinner invisible in MSK144 mode.

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.

Qt does its best job laying out widgets consistently across platforms
if all unecessary constraints are removed. Widget layout policies can
