Hi Dave,
the WSJT-X UDP message protocol is backwards compatible, if you do not
need the new messages then they can be safely ignored and any new fields
on existing messages are always added at the end so you can also safely
ignore any excess fields that you do not require.
Of course this does depend on your software actually using the WSJT-X
UDP message protocol, see my other reply above.
The changes resulted from several developer requests and also include
some new messages and fields to be both consistent and complete. No
GridTracker was not one of the requesters although the author(s) of
that application are of course welcome to make use of these changes.
