A new beta release is available that corrects some issues identified with the previous beta. See release notes below.
Once again I'd like to thank our field testers, who willingly endure (enthusiastically embrace?) a long series of official regression tests. 73, Wayne N6KR ====================================================== ====================== R34.BETA2 ======================= ====================================================== July 25, 2023 ------------ NEW FEATURES ------------ - ADDED "TX MONITOR METHOD, VOICE" menu entry: When this menu entry is set to "Fast", all speech processing effects and delays are removed from the voice monitor. - UPDATED BUILT-IN OPERATING MANUAL TO REV C29: This edition includes a number of corrections suggested by K4 users. (Special thanks to N6TV for detailed suggestions.) --------- BUG FIXES --------- - MSG REPEAT TRUNCATION FIXED: Previously, repeating a message with more than 24 characters would result in truncation of some portion of the message. Messages can now be up to 60 characters. - ELIMINATED "MOTORBOATING" (4 Hz cycling of Tx when MIC gain = 80). - ELIMINATED VOICE MODE POWER SPIKES: Previously, asserting PTT could lead to a brief spike in output power ahead of any normal transmit audio. - XVTR CONFIGURATION: Transverter configurations are now correctly maintained after software updates. - XVTR QUICK MEMORIES: These now function correctly. - DVR "NO RECORDED MESSAGE" bug fixed. - DVR VOICE MESSAGE PLAYBACK CLICKS: The beginning and ending of buffers are now truncated by 21 ms to help mask any mic clicks recorded in the message. - DVR CHAINING: Sometimes when chaining multiple messages, one of them may not have played, but the K4 would have stay keyed up for the remaining time as if it were playing. ----------------------- FOR SOFTWARE DEVELOPERS ----------------------- - KY command no longer inserts spaces unexpectedly (example: KY A;KY A; now sends AA not A A). RELATED NOTE: The KY command has a 60 character limit. Any KYR command used for MSG RPT operation has a 60 character limit for repeat. If your message is longer than 60 characters, then MSG RPT may not behave as expected. - KYW command now always waits before processing the next command (example: KS10;KYW A;KS20;KYW B;FT1;). - RX; command can now kill TX during a KYW wait command. - Added support for MENU toggle,incr,decr commands ( MEnnn./; MEnnn.-; MEnnn.+; ) Toggle command behaves the same as decrement on non-binary menu entries. - UP/DN command: Encoder simulation/emulation performance improved. - External command performance improved: May help resolve "lag" that appeared in R34.B1 compared to R33 with external host applications. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Groups.io Links: You receive all messages sent to this group.
