NEWNOTES.TXT * * * * NEW STUFF ADDED IN EACH NEW VERSION * * * *
Ver 75c: Fixed bug in 75b that caused your outgoing messages to be captured
on the TRAFFIC page and more imprtantly caused your digipeated OBJECT reports
to cancel themselves.

* You can now set TRACK on multiple stations
* If you set TRACK on yourself and save CONFIG file, it will remember it
* You may now mark SPECIAL stations on the Plist and display only them
with the JUST-SPECIAL command or JUST-CALLS. THese replace the old
# and * special display keys
* New FILES-MAPLISTS command
* Removed F1-HELP-ON-SCREEN
* New distro disks now do not have room for PKUNZIP.exe. Use ur copy
* Compatibility with the new APRS MIC-encoder. See VOX-RPTR.txt
Ver 75a:
*** Moved all MAPLISTS to a new directory MAPLISTS
*** GATE operators must put B E 0/10 instead of B E 0 in INITTAPR.TNC
* New GATE symbol with a BIG G

* WX-DispWX and WX-ShowTemp commands show WX vice CALLS on map.
* During REPLAY, FILEname is retained for subsequent use
* Fixed DF vehicle heading
* WX-JUST command latches ON/OFF (JUST-WX still is one time display)
* alt-SETUP-OTHER-REDRAW command toggles on an auto-redraw function.
* New CFIG75.APR file. You can update your old CFIG73c by adding
3 new items to the line after RELAY near the end of the file so that
it becomes 0,0,0,0 and then rename the file to CFIG75.APR
* New TORCHw, TORCHm, and TORCHe.bk files for olympic torch route
* Updated DIGIwest and DIGIeast.bk files
* SPRE.HST file shows the results of the APRS posits via SPRE satellite
* WO-18 satellite accepts APRS POSITS! See SPACE.txt

Ver 74i:
* Fixed WXsyms so that the alternate NWS WX syms would work again
* Fixed negative temperatures from the U-2000 just in time for spring
* Fixed CRASH on U-2000 negative wind direction
* Fixed remoteWX posits from overwriting WX data
* Still havent fixed U-2000 lockups with 16550 UART FIFO's. Not that
I dont know how, it is just a total re-write of my drivers...
* Fixed bug that prevented AEA TNC's from seeing 9 character calls

* Made it so that a * had to be seen in the DIGI field for CONGRATS.
Many TNC's echo their own packets and gave false CONGRATS!
* Fixed it so that dual ports with unproto paths xxx/yyy would work
properly with the SPACE mode to auto reset timers on hearing the DIGI
Ver beta2000: Attempted to fix the overflow problems with the U-2000
and the problem of TNC INT strings being transmitted on the air.
When these were transmitted, then the TNC never got initialized properly
on AEA TNC's.
Ver 74e: Minor tweaks, issued mid Dec 95. Good for 2 months!
* Added < > keys that work like the +/- keys for cycling through all
stations on the current map.
* Supports the new PICO-TNC without an HSP switch. APRS will send a ^E
to the TNC instead of hardware switching the DTR line whenever it needs
a new posit. During start-up, tell APRS you have a PICO, then set HSP
mode later using alt-S-GPS-HSP.
Ver 74d (betaB):

* Telemetry page accepts new MIM module with 5 analog and 8 digital channels
* New HHMMSS format for MIM modules not knowing DATE. See PROTOCOL.txt
Ver 74b: Fixed something in 74a within the same day. Dont remember what,
but 74b was in DISTRO for a long time and is an excellent version!
Ver 74a: Fixes crash in DOZ if you bump mouse
* Added South Pacific islands to WORLD and there is a new PACSOUTH.map
* Reports 1 minute average WIND speed from an attached ULTIMETER WX stn.

* Re-send a previous message by entering a single digit line number
instead of message text. The nth outgoing message will be copied .
To load "canned" messages, send to MSG, and they will NOT be transmitted,
but are available for copying as new messages. F2 will reply to the
last message received.
Ver 73c: Still wondering if F-10 DOZ does any good?
* Changed DEFAULT BAUDRATE to 4800 to match NMEA default
* OPS-DIGI-ALTpath selects one OPS-DIGI path for alternate POS/BCN routing

Ver 7.a: Upgraded to MAPFIX12 that can now KILL Labels
* 7.0 stations receiving a message QUERY vice the new OPS-QUERY would not
ack the query resulting in no message movement on the sender until that
