WSJT-X Version 1.9.0-rc2

The WSJT Development Group is pleased to announce a Release Candidate of WSJT-X Version 1.9.0. This is a second beta release, so it’s called v1.9.0-rc2. A first candidate release, v1.9.0-rc1, has already been tested in the field by a small test group. A General Availability (GA) release of v1.9.0 will be announced at a suitable time in the near future. After that time you should no longer use any -rc# candidate.

Here’s a short list of features and capabilities added to WSJT-X since Version 1.8.0:

1. New FT8 DXpedition Mode to facilitate high QSO rates in pileup situations

2. Decoding improvements for JT65 mode, including a priori (AP) decoding when VHF/UHF/Microwave features are enabled

3. Optional Auto-Sequencing in JT4, JT9, and JT65 when VHF/UHF/Microwave features are enabled

4. Better suppression of low-confidence false decodes generated by AP decoding in FT8 mode

5. Improved decoding performance for WSPR mode, especially effective at LF and MF

6. Minor adjustments to auto-sequencing behavior

7. More flexible Doppler control features for EME

8. Improved waterfall sensitivity for very weak signals

9. Automatic real-time forwarding of logged information to N1MM Logger+

10. Expanded and improved UDP messages sent to companion programs

11. Bug fixes and other minor tweaks to user interface
