Good evening Wolf and all,

Wolf, can you briefly explain differencies in algorithms of  ZL2AFP and DL4YHF decoders?

Thanks in advance.

Hi Michel,

Ok, thanks for testing, and nice to hear the synthesizer 'drive' works properly again.


You wrote:

- According to me, sentence "Select another comport to turn off PTT" is wrong and confusing. 

Maybe the intention is to emphasize 'after selecting another COM port, the PTT is initally off" because that's what the function calls in the PTT dialog window, after "OK", are doing.

The new serial port, if any, is not saved, therefore the correct port number has to be set in setup.txt 
The serial port is opened at launch time if the Synthesizer checkbox  is already checked. Sometimes it's better to 
open the port just before outputing data and release it when done, sometimes not  ( ie bluetooth serial port)

So we will have the option "leave the serial port open" or "close after switching from TX to RX" added in the configuration.
IMHO, 'setup.txt' should describe the synthesizer hardware but not the port to which it is connected (on a particular machine). Here, for example, windows has the bad habit to assign different COM port numbers for the same hardware (an old 'Prolific' USB<->RS-232 adapter), depending into which USB port / hub / etc it is plugged : "COM4 today, COM5 tomorrow" :o)
