Bug Fixes
- Crash can occur when updating the map if the DX Location is identical to the home location or when the location of either the DX station or the home station is malformed.
- Radio’s connected via a SCU-LAN10 were not getting the correct scope span or mode which resulted in the frequency scale and current frequency markers not being displayed.
- Fixed Icom IC-7610 dual-VFO support. Both VFOs now update frequency, mode and S-meter readings independently. Using the radio’s CHANGE or MAIN/SUB buttons no longer causes duplicated or frozen VFO readings, and the transmit VFO is correctly identified according to split operation.
- TS-890S Network authentication failed if the user was of type Administrator
- Callbook lookups could leave a contact’s location unchanged or revert it to the country’s default location. Improved locator handling, corrected location lookup from previous QSOs, and enabled manual lookups to refresh the same callsign.
- Changes to the ICOM Scope initialisation that could cause display layout changes on the radio screen
- Improved WSJT-X integration:
- Fixed FT4 spots failing with an “unrecognised mode ‘+’” error.
- Added support for all documented WSJT-X single digit mode indicators.
- Fixed incorrect spot frequencies when using multiple WSJT-X instances.
- Corrected contact times and spots received around midnight.
- Improved identification of the transmitting station.
- Prevented replayed recordings and low-confidence decodes from appearing as new spots.
- Added import of transmit power, contest exchanges and propagation mode.
- Improved handling of incomplete or invalid incoming messages.
- IC-7610 CI-V data handling and command queue issues
