Summary : Weak Signal communication by K1JT
Description :
WSJT-X is a computer program designed to facilitate basic amateur radio
communication using very weak signals. It implements communication protocols
or "modes" called JT4, JT9, JT65, QRA64, ISCAT, MSK144, and WSPR, as well as
one called Echo for detecting and measuring your own radio signals reflected
from the Moon.

Update Information:
WSJT-X 2.0.1 is a bug fix release including the following defect repairs
reported since the v2.0.0 GA release. - Remove startup message about
importance of upgrading to v2.0. - Relax ADIF log file parsing to allow garbage
between records and records with no DX callsign - Fix bug that prevented
retention of power and comments in Log QSO window - Updates to User Guide -
MSK144 frequency defaults to 50.260 in IARU Regions 2 and 3 - Remove
hexadecimal RGB values from color-configuration panel - Fix a bounds error by
not executing Fox-related code when not in Fox mode - Allow the logQSO
dialog to modify "Exch Sent" or "Rcvd" when operating in RTTY or NA VHF
Contest mode, and to have any changes flow through to N1MM Logger. - Fix
several problems in handling hashed callsigns - More rigorous quality checking
of WSPR decodes from the OSD algorithm - Fix bug that prevented recevied signal
reports from compound callsigns to be logged - Improved recognition of
callsigns with /P or /R suffixes - Do not waste time trying AP decoding of
nonstandard callsigns - Make OSD decoding work with WSPR "type 2" messages -
Retain in Tx6 message field any CQ messages like "CQ xxxx K1ABC FN42", where
xxxx is 1-4 letters or 1-3 digits - Optional key bindings for F1 through F5,
especially for contest use - Include grid in Tx1 messages with hashed callsign,
for example "<DF2018ARDF> K1ABC FN42" - Better formatting for the files
ALL.TXT and ALL_WSPR.TXT - Correct a flaw in validating contest exchange data
when logging - Option to always start new decode periods at top of Band
Activity window - New command "Erase WSPR hashtable" on the File menu -
Improved validation for ARRL RTTY RU and FD exchange fields - UDP Reference
applications join a multicast group on all available multicast capable
network interfaces - Minor code changes to support Qt versions >=5.10 -
Changes to support x64 Windows builds in preparation for Qt v5.12 - Add "ADIF
Export ..." to Fox Log's contextual popup menu - Use ARRL-required names for
VHF+ bands in exported Cabrillo log - New utility program rigctlcom-wsjtx (from
Hamlib) - Remove temporary FT8 working frequencies from default frequency list
- UDP protocol's Clear (3) message is made two-way, for better communication
with DX Lab Suite applications - Reset QSO start time when aborting a QSO or
clearing messages by ESC or F4 - Correct a logging issue in Fox's ADIF log
when Fox sends RR73 to more than one Hound in the same Tx sequence.
