Dear all,
I just uploaded a now beta-release of SlowJT9 (v0.9.11).
Just some bugs fixed:
- Fatal bug that could cause a crash if the
soundcard was not found fixed.
- Non fatal bug that caused wrong audio
frequency limitations for JT9.EXE fixed.
- Non fatal bug that caused a slight
timing error fixed. This maybe give that extra 0.1dB you need to complete the
ultimate DX QSO ;-)
In other words: JT9-2 and
JT9-5 send with v0.9.11 cannot be decoded with versions v0.9.00 - v0.9.03 and
vice versa.
The JT9-1 mode however is still the same and can be sent / received with all
versions (and is WSJT-X compatible).
The sole purpose of this version is to determine how JT9-2, and
eventually JT9-5, behave in relation to the previous versions, so we can decide
wether SlowJT9 will proceed with the original parameters (anno 2013) that imply
an odd baudrate ratio between the JT9 submodes or my previous parameters, with
"round number" ratios.
Therefore all test reports, remarks, suggestions and opinions are
most welcome.
For the same reason no other changes are applied.
I want to thank everybody who gave feedback, suggestions and bug reports over
the past weeks, this was very much appreciated!
Whoever is interested can download the SlowJT9 installation file at http://472khz.org/SlowJT9/SlowJT9_setup.exe.
For now only a Windows version of SlowJT9 is available. But as the used IDE
has cross platform facilities it should be possible to support other operating
systems as well in the future.
