Hi Bill, Sandro,
Ubuntu has an ARMv8 (arm64) distro. I can't say off-hand that I know
anyone using it in ham radio, mostly server based applications.
My PPA has been building the ARMv8 (arm64) package for a while now.
Again, I don't know if anyone is installing it, but the *.deb package is
there nonetheless.
Link to Packages, Bionic is the latest:

I think that is a 32 bit version for raspbian, not for the 64 bits.
I am correct ?
Thanks

Hi Sandro,
you are quite correct. The ARM version of WSJT-X is 32-bit. My mistake
as at the time it was rolled out I was working on a large commercial
project porting software to ARM 64-bit and I had the AArch64
architecture high on my brain stack ;)
If someone wished to run 64-bit WSJT-X on an ARM processor, including
the Raspberry Pi models 2 and 3, they could install a 64-bit o/s that
provides ARM support such as OpenSUSE Linux (maybe CentOS as well) then
build WSJT-X from sources. I would be surprised if it was not
straightforward. Our package maintainers may already be doing so.
