Dear WSJT-X and MAP65 Users,
WSJT-X 2.5.0-rc4 has a bug that prevents normal use of messages that
include compound or nonstandard callsigns. For this reason we are
making a public Release Candidate WSJT-X 2.5.0-rc5 after an unusually
short interval. The RC5 release candidate is now ready for download by
beta testers. On Windows the installation package also includes MAP65
3.0.0-rc5.
See the Release Notes for changes since WSJT-X 2.5.0-rc4:
https://physics.princeton.edu//pulsar/k1jt/Release_Notes.txt
There are several improvements to MAP65, in addition to the fix for
compound and nonstandard callsigns.
As before, we are especially interested in feedback from users of Q65
and the separate program MAP65.
Links for downloading WSJT-X 2.5.0-rc5 can be found on the WSJT-X Home
Page, https://physics.princeton.edu/pulsar/k1jt/wsjtx.html
