📢 News-Update für die DARC-Remotestationen! 🌐📻

Pünktlich zur #HamRadio2026 hat der #DARC die Trx-Server-Version 6.1.33.168 auf allen Remotestationen eingespielt.

Es gibt ein neues Feature im Mode OP: Per Doppelklick (links) auf den Wert in der Anzeige könnt ihr die Ansicht jetzt flexibel umschalten zwischen:

📉 SWR (Stehwellenverhältnis)

📊 ALC (Automatic Level Control) – besonders wichtig für #FT8 / #FT4 via #WSJTX, um Übersteuerungen zu vermeiden!

⚡ ID (Drain-Strom der Endstufen-MOSFET)

Perfekt, um die Aussteuerung der Sendeendstufe noch besser im Blick zu behalten. 📡💻

"WSJT-X 3.1 improved is no longer just 'standard WSJT-X with a few extra features." A substantial amount of practical decoder thinking...has been meaningfully incorporated into it."

Understanding FT8 Decoder Settings in WSJT-X 3.1 improved

What Decode Start really does in WSJT-X 3.1 improved — a technical essay on timing strategy, staged decoding, CPU allocation, and practical operating philosophy.

Added QSO Window to WSJT-Z to show the station info currently exchanging messages with and see the Auto CQ / Auto Call decision log.

In case this can help anyone else - it looks like it's not that #raspberrypi support was dropped, but #wsjtx 3.0.x binary now seems to be built for #debian #trixie (the current Raspberry Pi OS) whereas I was still on #bookworm. What confused me was 3.0 rc1 had still been built for #bookworm

1/2 🧵

It appears #wsjtx team have silently dropped #raspberrypi arm64 support. Last available arm64 package is 3.0.0-rc1 (which no longer works). I posted a question in wsjtx.groups.io, but I'm not holding my breath 🙄 #hamradio #linux

Follow up:   I've posted a draft of the rules!

I know the idea of trying to create a level field between big HF stations using #wsjtx and portable VHF stations on FM is probably an exercise in futility, but I think it sort of works (at least on paper).

Feedback is welcome!
