[[NEW_FEATURES]]
|
|
=== New in Version {VERSION_MAJOR}.{VERSION_MINOR}
|
|
|
|
_WSJT-X 2.6_ implements features in support of the ARRL International
|
|
Digital Contest. This contest's scoring is distance based, so the
|
|
*Call 1st* checkbox is replaced by a drop-down control offering *CQ
|
|
Max Dist* as an alternative. A new window labeled *Active Stations*
|
|
displays a list of received but unworked callsigns sorted in
|
|
decreasing order of potential contest points. See Section 7.4 for
|
|
more details on these features.
|
|
|
|
Decoding performance for FT8 and Q65 has been improved for situations
|
|
where _a priori_ (AP) information is available.
|
|
|
|
*Echo* mode now offers a button labeled *Clear Avg* and produces
|
|
reliable measurements of SNR and Doppler spread. The related
|
|
*Measure* function can be used to measure these quantities for a
|
|
received unmodulated carrier -- for example, a key-down test signal
|
|
emitted by another station and reflected from the Moon.
|
|
|
|
New buttons on the main window allow quick changes between the modes
|
|
FT4, FT8, MSK144, Q65, and JT65. Another button allows toggling the
|
|
FT8 Hound mode ON or OFF.
|
|
|
|
Optional highlighting is provided for DX Call and DX Grid, and for
|
|
messages containing RR73 or 73.
|
|
|
|
New options are provided for writing to file ALL.TXT. You can request
|
|
starting a suitably labeled new file every month or every year, and you
|
|
can disable writing altogether.
