The WSJT Development Group is pleased to announce Release Candidate 5 for WSJT-X Version 1.4.0. Installation packages for Windows, Linux, and OS X can be downloaded from the WSJT web site: http://physics.princeton.edu/pulsar/K1JT/wsjtx.html Release candidate 5 (wsjtx-1.4.0-rc5) is stable and reliable; there are just a few changes since -rc4. All rig-control problems reported to us have been resolved. A detailed log of program changes since v1.3 r3673 is available here: http://physics.princeton.edu/pulsar/K1JT/wsjtx-1.4.0-rc5.log Upgrading from a previous release of v1.4 will be seamless; there is no need to uninstall a previous version or to move any files. If you are upgrading from WSJT-X v1.3 you must copy your log files into a new location and re-enter your setup information. Full details and instructions are provided here: http://physics.princeton.edu/pulsar/K1JT/ReleaseNotice.txt You should also be sure to read the WSJT-X v1.4 User Guide. (Note that some updates to the User Guide are still under way.) We expect that release candidate 5 will very soon become the "official" version 1.4.0 of WSJT-X. Most of you know that the next program version, WSJT-X v1.5, is also moving rapidly toward a first beta release. More than 100 users have built this version themselves, from the open source code. They have been exercising it thoroughly on the air, especially enjoying its improved decoding speed and other new features. We plan to make installable packages for WSJT-X-1.5.0-rc1 available very soon. Version 1.6 is also progressing nicely, in a special development branch. Again, many users are regularly building this version from source code. It will be the first WSJT-X version to support VHF-UHF-Microwave-oriented modes from WSJT including JT4, JT65B, and JT65C. -- 73 from Joe, K1JT, for the WSJT Development Group ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Dive into the World of Parallel Programming The Go Parallel Website, sponsored by Intel and developed in partnership with Slashdot Media, is your hub for all things parallel software development, from weekly thought leadership blogs to news, videos, case studies, tutorials and more.
