=== New in Version 1.6

For quick reference, here's a short list of features and capabilities
added to _WSJT-X_ since Version 1.5.0:

- *WSPR* mode, including automatic coordinated band-hopping and an
two-pass decoder that can decode overlapping signals.

- EME-inspired features including *JT4* (submodes *A-G*), *Echo* mode,
and automatic *Doppler tracking*.  (Note that submodes *JT65B* and
*JT65C* are also present in Version 1.6, but the high-sensitivity
decoder required for EME is not yet included.)

- Tools for accurate *frequency calibration* of your radio, so you can
be automatically ``on frequency'' to within about 1 Hz.

- Mode-specific working frequencies accessible from the drop-down
band selector.
 
=== Future releases

Much work has already been done on what will become Version 1.7 of
_WSJT-X_.  (Up to now it has been called v1.6.1.)  A number of people
have been building this version for themselves, as development
progresses, and reporting on their experiences.  The next release will
almost certainly have the following features not present in Version
1.6.0, and perhaps others as well:

- *JTMSK* mode, intended for meteor scatter, ionospheric scatter,
aircraft scatter, and the like.  Unlike the FSK441, ISCAT, and JTMS
modes present in the older program _WSJT_, JTMSK includes strong
forward error correction and uses structured messages identical to
those in JT4, JT9, and JT65.

- Significantly improved decoding for JT65, especially in crowded HF
bands.
