900913 -Version 1.0
901004 -File menue: 'RX logfile' now opens a dialogbox for
logfile selection. Standard filetype is .LOG.
901017 -New menue 'Qth': calculate distance and direction
from qth locators. The results are displayed and assigned
to the texts 'distance' and 'direction'.
901101 -Version 1.1
901125 -New display function "spectrum".
901204 -Converter schematics changed: OP-AMP output now connected
to DSR.
901205 -Version 1.2, available on simtel20 as HC901204.ZIP
901212 -TX speaker control changed to smooth out tone. Timer 2 was
reprogrammed for each and every bit send. Now the timer 2
is only touched when absolutely neccessary.
-Number of stopbits changed from 2 to 1.5.
-QTH calculator: Field QTH2 is now selected on activation.
-The startup value of the audio center frequency can now be set
from a configuration file using the command "SET AFCENTER <x>",
where <x> is an integer between 500 and 2000.
-The startup value of the audio frequency difference between the
mark and space tone can now be set from a configuration file
using the command "SET AFSHIFT <x>", where <x> is an integer
between 25 and 1000.
901216 -Idle character transmission can now be controlled using the
"Diddle on/off" function on the "Keying" menue.
-The startup state of the "Diddle" flag can be set from a config
file using the "SET DIDDLE ON" or "SET DIDDLE OFF" commands.
-Config files can be selected and processed "on the fly" using
the "Load .cfg file" item on the "File" menue. This is handy,
if the next qso partner is from a different country and you
want to switch to a different set of standard phrases.
-ALT-X will terminate the program.
901222 -Prototype of callsign decoder added. Database needs update.
Select item "Callsign" on "QTH" menue to activate function or
hit ALT-C (this may change).
-Parser for config files changed. Token "" is now recognized as
a NULL token. This is handy for "undefining" text elements
from config files.
901228 -Added line to "Scope" function to show current center frequency
for precise tuning. Green color on color displays, white
on monochrome.
910109 -Added TXDELAY. This is the minimum delay required for the
transmitter after activating the ptt line. Can be set from a
config file using the "SET TXDELAY <x>" command, where <x> is
the number of milliseconds to wait.
-Added TXWAIT. This is an additional delay until the first
character is sent, just to give your qso partner a chance for
fine tuning to your signal. Can also be set from a config file
using the "SET TXWAIT <x>" command, where <x> is the number
of milliseconds to wait.
910128 -Added help text for SPECTRUM function.
910211 -Added preliminary version of WORD entrymode. Toggled by
control-W from the RTTY window.
Rules for WORD entrymode:
When the SPACEBAR is hit the characters between the current
cursor position and the first blank to the left of the cursor
will be send to the TX buffer, followed by a blank.
When the ENTER key is hit the characters between the current
cursor position and the first blank to the left of the cursor
will be send to the TX buffer. In the next step all characters
from the current cursor position to the end of the line will be
send to the TX buffer, ignoring trailing blanks. Finally the
usual carriage-return/line-feed sequence is send.
If this explanation leaves you in total confusion then simply
give it a try.
Please note that word-wrap is not yet implemented for WORD mode.
-Added preliminary version of transmit monitoring. Toggled by
control-P from the RTTY window. Characters are echoed to the RX
window on transfer to the TX buffer. This will probably change
in the future!
910213 -Added word-wrap for WORD entrymode.
-Added help text for RTTY, TUNE and SCOPE display.
910216 -Added line drawing routines to speed up SPECTRUM display.
910217 -Changes to TX monitoring: characters send to the TX buffer are now
displayed on the line separating the RX window from the TX window.
The P option, controlled by control-P, is now enabled on startup.
910307 -Help text for RTTY updated.
910308 -Version 1.3
