Too many mistakes, this morning.
At the bottom of my email announcing availability of Candidate Release
WSJT-X 2.7.0-rc1, I listed my colleague Uwe Risse's callsign as DG3YCB.
As most of you know, and as I know perfectly well, his callsign is
DG2YCB. Moreover, Uwe had already drawn my attention to this typo in a
previous announcement. Forgetting about that, I simply copied the typo
from the previous message.
Mea culpa, mea maxima culpa, Uwe. Let's hope the software performs
better than one of its authors has done.
Maybe I can blame it on my health. I came down with COVID yesterday,
and am feeling very poorly.
