Subject: [wsjt-devel] Release of WSJT-X Version 1.9.0
—-
The WSJT Development Group is pleased to announce WSJT-X Version 1.9.0. If you have been using version 1.8.0, or a candidate release v1.9.0-rc#, you should upgrade at this time.
New features and enhancements since Version 1.8.0 are summarized here:
http://physics.princeton.edu/pulsar/k1jt/New_Features_1.9.0.txt
A more detailed list of changes since “Release Candidate 4” (wsjtx-1.9.0-rc4) can be found in the Release Notes:
http://physics.princeton.edu/pulsar/k1jt/Release_Notes.txt
WSJT-X Version 1.9.0 permits operation in FT8 DXpedition Mode without callsign restrictions, but not for transmitting in any of the conventional FT8 sub-bands. DXpedition Mode should be used only in rare-entity circumstances in which sustained QSO rates well above 100/hour are expected. Detailed instructions for FT8 DXpedition Mode can found here:
http://physics.princeton.edu/pulsar/k1jt/FT8_DXpedition_Mode.pdf
Upgrading from earlier versions of WSJT-X will be seamless; there is no need to uninstall a previous version or move any files. Please do not continue using any “release candidate” — that is, any beta release with “-rc#” in the version name.
Links to installation packages for Windows, Linux, Macintosh, and Raspbian Jessie are available here:
http://physics.princeton.edu/pulsar/k1jt/wsjtx.html
You can also download the packages from our SourceForge site:
https://sourceforge.net/projects/wsjt/files/
It may take a short time for the SourceForge site to be updated.
We hope you will enjoy using WSJT-X Version 1.9.0.
— 73, Joe, K1JT, for the WSJT Development Group
