Hi Gerrie,
FYI: WSJT-X v2.7.1-devel 250106-RC8 improved PLUS and WSJT-X v2.7.0-rc8
have the identical Hamlib version (and have been compiled on the same
computer). And for both program versions, you can very easily update
hamlib with one click (Windows only).
Furthermore, If you are working on Windows, you only need to replace a
single file ("libhamlib-4.dll") if there is any problem with your rig
after a program update which often brings also a new Hamlib version. It
is always the same! I've even created a tutorial about how to deal with
rig control errors (available in English
<https://sourceforge.net/projects/wsjt-x-improved/files/How_to_deal_with_rig_control_errors.pdf/download>
and German
<https://sourceforge.net/projects/wsjt-x-improved/files/Was_tun_bei_Rig_Control_Fehlern.pdf/download>).
My recommendation: If you have a "libhamlib-4.dll" version which works
well with your rig, backup it manually, so you can restore it in case
the Update Hamlib doesn't work for you - for whatever reason. I really
don't understand why so many OMs find it so difficult ...
73 de DG2YCB,
Uwe

Hello Mike,
I think that is exactly the issue...
libhamlib-4.dll as it is distributed along with WSTJ-X v2.7.1-devel
250106-RC8 improved PLUS does follow the frequency-dial on the tS2000x
like one would expect.
However when I open the directory after I install WSJT-X v2.7.0-rc8, I
see a libhamlib-4_new.dll along with a libhamlib-4.dll. And then is
doesn't follow the frequency_dial anymore.

Upgrade Hamlib in the Radio tab and see if that helps.

Hello team,
Today I checked different versions of wsjt-x in combination to a
TS2000x, because I was checking some new features together with
Charles, G3WDG.
My observation was in WSJT-X v2.7.0-rc8, the firmware does not follow
the radio-dial, even not when holding Ctrl pressed. For that reason
and for your team to possibly make the debugging easier, I compared
older versions up to the point the problem occurred (see list below).
I find the feature that the wsjt-x firmware simply follows the
radio-dial very convenient, not needing to use the keyboard
shortcuts. I simply set the Multi/CH dial on the TS2000x to 1kHz
steps and can change very fast between different stations in EME
which mostly report their frequency in rounded kHz steps.
Follows Radio dial (even without holding Ctrl-key):
WSJT-X v2.7.1-devel 241014-rc7 improved AL PLUS
WSJT-X v2.7.1-devel 241014-rc7 improved PLUS
WSJT-X v2.7.1-devel 250106-rc8 improved PLUS
Does *NOT* follows Radio dial (even with holding Ctrl-key):
WSJT-X v2.7.0-rc8
Hope it helps, will I receive feedback in my personal mail?
Gerrie, PA3EXV
