WSJT-X 3.2.0 introduces a new mode, JTTY, along with new capabilities for Q65, MAP65, and QMAP and a large number of improvements and bug fixes.
A new WSJT-X User Guide is posted here https://wsjtx.github.io/wsjtx/wsjtx-main-3.2_en.html,
and a brief summary of new features is here https://wsjtx.github.io/wsjtx/wsjtx-main-3.2_en.html#NEW_FEATURES. Updates to the User Guide are still being made; the present version has some out-of-date screen shots, and some missing text.
A more detailed record of changes since version 3.0.2 is in the Release Notes, available here: https://wsjtx.github.io/wsjtx/release_notes.html.
If you decide to try JTTY mode, we suggest an initial common meeting place of 14.090 MHz on the 20m band. Alternatively, use one of these (very preliminary!) suggested
Band kHz
-----------
160 1838
80 3575
40 7090
30 10140
20 14090
17 18100
15 21090
12 24920
10 28090
6 50160
2 144160
Most of these frequencies will appear in the WSJT-X default frequencies list if you right-click and select "Reset" on the table in the Settings | Frequencies tab. But you might prefer to enter needed ones manually, so as to not lose other manually-entered values. If JTTY becomes popular, you may expect some or all of the suggested dial frequencies to change.
