Hi -
Win-Test version 3.8.0 is now available:
http://download.win-test.com/wt-3.8.0.exe [Full version, 3.9 MB]
http://download.win-test.com/wt-3.8.0-update.exe [Update only, 2.2 MB]
We will probably make another version before the ARRL CW contest, so
feel free to report any bugs you can detect with this version. I'm
working on rotators support (with the EA4TX interface supported for the
first test) in the backgroung and for this reason I won't implement any
new features in Win-Test until the rotator is working.
Release 3.8.0 (Jan 18, 2007)
----------------------------
- Radio wnd / Bandmap tab : New CQ and QSY cursors to display the last
CQ freq and the QSY freq of the band. These cursors can be displayed
or not, according to the contextual menu settings (Display options).
- NAQP contest : When entering a NA QSO, WT now ensures all field are
filled. Tnx K8BB.
- Summary columns re-order for:
- the ARRL DX to BAND/QSO/MULTS/DXCC/DUPES
- the CQWW DX to BAND/QSO/CQ/DXCC/DUPES/POINTS/AVG
which is the usually used order. Tks K3LR.
- MicroHAM MK2R SO2R Protocol is now fully supported. To enable it:
- in microHAM USB Device Router, check "microHAM SO2R protocol on
COM port" in the "SO2R" tab. You can also specify "SO2R protocol
controled" for RADIO 1 and/or RADIO 2 in the "ACC" tab if you
want to let Win-Test control the ACC outputs to switch the
antennas.
- in Win-Test: select "MicroHAM MK2R" on the COM port the USB
Device Router is attached to for SO2R control. As it is a
virtual COM port, the COM port configuration (bauds, parity...)
has no effect: you can choose anything.
The new macro $MK2R=<cmd> has been added in order to send any
protocol to the MK2R from a scenario. This can be usefull to set
a specific audio configuration which is not a standard R1R1, R1R2
or R2R2. For example, $MK2R=FRD100000010000 will configure
the headphones audio to "Left=RADIO1,MAIN VFO and
Right=Radio1,SUB VFO". Please report to the SO2R protocol
specification of the MK2R to get details on the FRDxxxxxxxxxx
command as well as on other ones.
Note that WinKey and PTT/CW events of the Win-Test integrated
keyers are not handled by the protocol. It means that if you
want to use Win-Key or the WT integrated keyers you must
configure then separately. The PTT/CW signals can share the
COM port used for the SO2R control. WinKey will required a
different COM port in any case.
- In RTTY Configuration Window: Added two options:
- MMTTY window stays on top: when enable, the MMTTY window will
be always visible
- Only show FFT spectrum, waterfall and XY scope: when enable,
the MMTTY window is minimized, and does not show the Menu nor
the Command Buttons.
- Added a new "RTTY" entry in menu "Options" to allow modifying the
standard and additionnal messages. Also allowed to access the
messages entry in the menu "Command".
- Bugfix: Internal keyer + Winkey. Tks G3SJJ.
- Bugfix: the "Copy-Paste the previous QSO" function is now available
only when the cursor is on the last line of the log. Tks DL6RAI.
- Bugfix: TXing in RTTY was not canceled anymore pressing the ESC Key.
Fixed. Tks F2JD.
- Bugfix: Focus problem with MMTTY is fixed. Tks DL6RAI.
- Bugfix: using a SO2R interface based on LPT port, in a message like
"$F1 $TR2 $MSG1", the $TR2 macro had no effect. Fixed. Tks S51TA.
- Bugfix: Using WinKey, the CW speed of the paddle was changing
under certain circonstances. Fixed. Tks DJ3WE and G3SJJ.
- Bugfix : NAQP contest : Under some circonstances, the SPC field was
cleared while editing the QSO. Tnx K8BB.
- Bugfix : PACC contest : From PA side, working PA stns gave credit for
province. Now, it only gives credit for PA DXCC country. Tnx PC2A.
