Revision 2786 of the experimental program WSJT-X has been posted. As usual, a link to it appears on the WSJT web site:

http://physics.princeton.edu/pulsar/K1JT/wsjt.html

The following is a direct link to the installation file:

http://physics.princeton.edu/pulsar/K1JT/WSJTX_05r2786.exe

Changes from yesterday's r2783 are minor, but may be important to you.

1. In r2783, the companion program jt9.exe (started automatically when you start WSJT-X) was a CPU hog for no good reason. This was an oversight on my part, and the bug has been corrected.

2. The program should now run correctly if installed in a directory whose name contains embedded spaces. (Under Vista and Win7, however, it's still not a good idea to install WSJT-X into
C:\Program Files, because of restricted write permissions there.)

3. In r2783 and earlier, stopping a transmission by toggling to "Auto OFF" would terminate Tx audio and release PTT almost simultaneously, possibly hot-switching your T/R relay(s). This has been corrected so that proper sequencing takes place.
