- update 2023-02-18 for 2.7.0ial+
  * Wait and Pounce as well as calling CQ with either CQ: Max Dist, or CQ: Max,
    db or CQ: Min dB enabled should work better now. There were some
    inconsistencies in the algorithms for these functions.
  * With CQ: Max Dist, or CQ: Max, db or CQ: Min dB enabled, the DX Call entry
    is no longer cleared after a QSO since it is not necessary anymore with
    my new code.
  * Some improvements to highlighting of callsigns for the slow modes
    (i.e. MSK144).
  * STRG + ALT + F11/F12 now moves the frequency +-1000 Hz instead of 2 kHz.

- version 2.7.0-rc1
  * QMAP and Q65 Pileup mode are of particular interest to those
    engaged in Earth-Moon-Earth (EME) communication, but other
    applications may be found for them as well.
    * QMAP is derived from MAP65, an older program used since 2007 for
      EME, mainly on the 2 m band. QMAP provides single-polarization
      receive-only capabilities for any one of the 60-second submodes
      of Q65. It allows you to monitor all traffic in a 90 kHz subband
      while conducting EME QSOs in the usual way with WSJT-X.
    * Q65 Pileup mode is a new feature in WSJT-X that will assist DX
      operators using Q65 in pileup circumstances with many
      simultaneous callers and very weak signals, such as those
      experienced by 6-meter EME DXpeditions.
    * Further details on QMAP and Q65 Pileup mode are available in a
      Quick-Start guide posted here:
      https://wsjt.sourceforge.io/Quick_Start_WSJT-X_2.7_QMAP.pdf
  * WSJT-X now provides more efficient spotting to PSK Reporter.
    Redundant spots are omitted, and posting of spots is now spread
    more widely in time. (Temporarily, in support of the HamSCI
    Festivals of Eclipse Ionospheric Science, spots will be transmitted
    more frequently during the upcoming solar eclipses.)
  * WSJT-X is now able to process more than 100 FT8 decodes in a single
    reception interval.
  * Improvements to the Fox mode:
    * More convenient and efficient handling of the two queues.
    * Fox Log window now displays statistical data on the QSO rate.
  * When the station locator is changed (e.g during portable
    operations), the new locator will be sent automatically to PSK
    Reporter.
  * The cty.dat file can now be updated by clicking a button on the
    Settings -> Colors tab.
  * A new status display appears when fetching a new LotW file.
  * Multi-streamed messages transmitted by MSHV are now handled
    properly when WSJT-X is in Hound mode.
  * Auto-sequencing now has better protection against unwanted effects
    caused by late FT8 decodes.
  * Fixed an inconsistency in which Contest Name was not correctly
    remembered.
  * Other minor bug fixes.
  * Updated hyperlinks to our homepage and to our new WSJT GROUP User
    Forum (https://groups.io/g/wsjtgroup/) can now also be found in the
    User Guide.
  * The build instructions for macOS have been clarified.

Fri Apr 14 16:25:53 UTC 2023 - Walter Fey <dl8fcl@darc.de>

- update 2023-02-18 for 2.6.2ial+
- Better compatibility with MSHV and Fox stations operating in the wrong time slot:
  * When in Hound mode, AutoSeq is now also able to correctly handle QSOs where the
    other station uses MSHV multi-stream mode instead of F/H.
  * It is now possible to work Fox stations which are operating in the wrong time slot
    without having to leave the Hound mode: After double-clicking on such a station,
    the program temporarily switches the time slot, so AutoSeq can finish the QSO.
    After the QSO is finished and also in case of any manual intervention by the user,
    wsjt-x_improved immediately resets the time slot to our F/H protocol. This makes it
    impossible to accidentally call a real Fox station in the wrong time slot.
  * Furthermore, Christo LZ2HV seems to have accepted my suggestion that in the future
    MSHV also transmits only even (00/30) when multi-stream mode is enabled. With this,
    we should finally overcome the incompatibilities. Thanks for the cooperation!
- In the WideGraph, you can now choose whether you want the timestamp to be displayed or
  not, and whether it should be on the left or right side.
- New feature: Show distance and/or azimuth in messages with grid: If a station sends
  a valid Maidenhead locator, wsjt-x_improved now automatically calculates the distance
  and the great-circle azimuth and displays it in the Band Activity pane.
- A new "Align DXCC / distance / azimuth" checkbox allows you to keep the DXCC names
  (or principal prefixes) as well as distance/azimuth in an aligned table form.
- Two spin boxes allow further configuration of the preferred layout.
  * The first spin box sets the number of spaces between the decoded message and the
    DXCC name (or the principal prefix). The default is set to "1", which means one
    space more compared to the WSJT-X standard.
  * The second spin box sets the number of spaces between the DXCC and the distance/
    azimuth field. You can increase or decrease the default number.
  * The first spin box works also when "Align DXCC / distance / azimuth" is not checked.
    It can be used to increase the spacing between the decoded messages and the DXCC
    names. I programmed this because the number of stations with non-standard callsigns
    has greatly increased, and a little more space might be appropriate.
- The horizontal position of the Band Activity window is now remembered. This allows
  on smaller screens scrolling to the distance/azimuth field and keeping this position
  even when new decodes arrive.
- In the help menu, hyperlinks to the wsjt-x_improved home page as well as to the pdf
  file "The additional features of wsjt-x_improvd" have been added.
- The checkbox "Show principal prefix instead of country name" now automatically appears
  dimmed when "Show DXCC ..." is not activated, so this function is not applicable.
- New option: ALT + Double-click on a call adds the callsign to DX Call Box, but does NOT
  enable Tx, although "Double-click on call sets Tx enable" is checked. You can use this
  option if you want to monitor a station first before starting a QSO.
- Repeated double-clicking on a callsign now updates its dB values in the Tx 2 and Tx3
  messages.
- In Settings, some checkboxes have been repositioned to make it a bit more compact and
  intuitive. The "Show country information for all messages" checkbox has been moved to
  the General tab and renamed "Show DXCC for all messages" so that the three content-
  related checkboxes are now arranged directly next to each other.
- The cty.dat file has been upgraded to the "Big CTY" variant. This allows in particular
  a much more correct mapping of the ITU zones.
- Some minor improvements to the code to make it faster and more robust.
- Bugfix: Do not switch to Tx1 after double-clicking on a message unless Tx1 is needed.
- The source code of the wsjt-x_improved PLUS version is now also compatible with macOS.
  Therefore, I am now able to provide you with Darwin installer packages with the PLUS
  features (i.e. audible alerts and Cloudlog support).

Sat Feb 18 08:57:28 UTC 2023 - Walter Fey <dl8fcl@darc.de>

- update 2023-02-18 for 2.6.1ial+
- New option: "MSK144/Q65: Tx until 73 is received". It does what the name
  promises. Quite useful on VHF/UHF/SHF, it increases the success rate for a
  difficult QSO. A maximum of 10 attempts are made before it times out. Use
  Wait & Reply in case this is still not enough for you.
- The "Wait features" (Wait & Reply and Wait and Call) can now be disabled.
  As there is actually no reason why to disable them, they are enabled by
  default. But a few OMs have requested this option.
- The "Enable Tx" and "DX Call" buttons are now colored yellow if theoretically
  certain incoming messages could switch on the Tx. This is the case in Hound
  mode, but also with Wait & Reply or Wait & Call enabled. Some OMs had
  requested this safety feature to remind them to keep their ATU or PA on.
  Right-click on the DX Call button to clear the DX Call box and thus
  completely disable Tx. Experienced users don't really need such yellow
  colorings, so they can be turned off with "Disable Tx warnings".
- If the DX Call Box contains a callsign and then "Generate Std Msgs" is
  clicked, Tx1 is now automatically selected (or Tx2 if Tx1 is disabled).
  This saves one click and you can start your QSO right away.
- Minor stability improvements in the modules DXLabSuiteCommanderTransceiver
  and HamlibTransceiver.
- Some improvements to the tooltips. Some texts now change dynamically
  depending on which functions are active, allowing a more intuitive operation. 
- The minimum height of the Settings window has been reduced, making it easier
  to use on smaller screens (relevant for Linux, Raspberry Pi, etc.). 
- New option to add the Special Operating Activity mode/name to the
  comments field. 
  Note: Retained comments and "dB reports to comments" override this feature.
- Fix a flaw that the Contest Name was not always remembered or incorrectly
  displayed.
- Fix a flaw when "Log QSO" was clicked during special operating activities. 
- Fix a long-standing inconsistency that under certain conditions "RU" or
  "TEST" was also displayed in Hound mode.

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Mon Jan 16 21:44:06 UTC 2023 - Walter Fey <dl8fcl@darc.de>

- update to version 2.6.1ial+
  * Fix a flaw in Q65 mode that prevented proper display of the T/R 
    period spinner.
  * Make the initialization of the decoded text font more robust.
  * Better initialization when starting the program in FT8 Hound mode.
  * Fix a bug causing program crash with more than 100 decodes in a
    single FT8 sequence.
  * Fix a compiler warning on macOS.
  * Correct the reference to "ARRL International Digital Contest" in the 
    Release Notes.

-------------------------------------------------------------------

  * Repair a defect that caused occasional crashes when in QSO with 
    stations using nonstandard callsigns.

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Tue Dec 14 09:08:48 UTC 2021 - Walter Fey <dl8fcl@darc.de>

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Fri Nov  5 10:07:06 UTC 2021 - Walter Fey <dl8fcl@darc.de>

- update to version 2.5.2
  * Repair a longstanding regression that caused si
    tail-ended Tx2 messages to be omitted from logged information
  * Parse "dx-call-1 RR73; dx-call-2 <de-call> +nn" messages (i3=0,
    n3=1 DXpedition mode) in regular 77-bit modes
  * Repair a regression associated with setting the main window width
    on program startup.
  * Repair a problem with Q65 decodes of type 'q3' for messages of the
    form "<Call_1> Call_2"
  * Execute code associated with Q65 decodes of type 'q5' only when the
    Max Drift control is set to 50. This fix prevents
    double-incrementing of the message averaging counter on the first
    decoding sequence.
  * Polarization offset 'Dpol' from the astronomical data window is now
    written to file azel.dat if environment variable
    WSJT_AZEL_EXTRA_LINES has been defined as 1 or greater. Dpol is
    especially useful for EME on the higher microwave bands.
  * The Auto Log QSO option in "Settings->Reporting" now behaves the
    same as the Prompt to log QSO option when not in a special
    operating context mode.
  * The Fast/Normal/Deep setting in Q65 mode is now a sticky setting
    and is no longer reset to Fast on program startup or when Settings
    has been opened. The user selection is used for automatic decodes,
    but Deep is used for any subsequent manual decode attempts.
  * New hamlib code to correct minor flaws in controlling several rigs.
  * Update the Chinese and Hong Kong translations of the user
    interface.

-------------------------------------------------------------------

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Mon Nov 16 15:18:54 UTC 2020 - Walter Fey <dl8fcl@darc.de>

- update to version 2.3.0-rc2
- Dropped audio samples message box. Removed, warnings and errors for
  these are now sent to the WSJT-X system log.
- FST4W spots to  WSPRNet.org will be augmented such that the server
  can distinguish the  mode being spotted. Spots  to WSPRNet.org will
  no longer be restricted to WSPR sub-bands.
- A new  internal system  and data logging  facility used  to provide
  trace,  debug,   information,  warning,  error,  and   fatal  error
  messages. The verbosity and filtering of messages is user definable
  via a configuration file. Without  a configuration file a basic log
  is written with  information, warning and error  messages only. Log
  files are automatically rotated to limit disk usage.
- Due to  some users using  inappropriate multicast IP  addresses for
  their interoperating  severs the default  behaviour now is  to only
  send multicast  UDP datagrams  to the loop-back  network interface.
  Users who  require WSJT-X UDP  Message Protocol datagrams  to reach
  other  hosts will  now  have  to configure  WSJT-X  to  send on  an
  appropriate  network interface,  and  use  an appropriately  scoped
  multicast group address for their  server applications.  If you are
  not sure then  224.0.0.1 (or ff02::1 if IPv6 is  desired) is a safe
  choice.

-------------------------------------------------------------------

  requests with the 'Highlight last'  parameter as true highlighted a
  match in a prior period. This fix include a performance improvement
  when  processing any  Highlight  Callsign  request with  'Highlight
  last' as true.
- Include support for the Yaesu FT-920 when controlled by Ham Radio
  Deluxe. This change inadvertently missed the v2.2.0 GA release.
- Correct a documentation issue with the UDP Message Protocol
  Status(1) message Special Operations Mode enumeration values ("WW
  DIGI added", Fox, and Hound renumbered). Thanks to Sam, W2JDB, for
  raising this issue.
