[wsjt-devel] WSPR 4.0 r5489 runs well, on Fedora 21 x86_64
Hi all, I needed to copy the configure script from an earlier version and, as usual specify F2PY as f2py3 then the make went smoothly. Alan VK2ZIW On Thu, 25 Jun 2015 16:03:49 -0400, Joe Taylor wrote Hi all, My, you've been busy here -- lots of very impressive progress! Many thanks to all of you contributors to the WSJT-related projects! [Brief aside: My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our 8-day cruise -- Venice to Athens, with stopovers at ports on the Dalmatian coast: Split, Korcula, Dubrovnik, Kotor, Butrint, Corfu, and Delphi; then into the Ionian sea and through the Corinth canal into the Aegean, ending at Piraeus. Two canceled flights on the way home extended our trip by more than 24 hours, and 2 of our 3 bags are currently lost -- but otherwise all is well.] Here's a start toward responding to some issues raised in the past two weeks: 1. I've briefly tried the G4WJS r5629-dirty version of WSJT-X -- the one with Bill's suggested changes to the user interface. They look very good, and I suggest they should be committed to our -devel branch. 2. Our other Bill, ND0B, has made great progress with implementing short-sequence ISCAT capability in WSJT. Bill has a bunch of enthusiastic testers using it on 6 meters with excellent results. I haven't tried it yet, but after reading the reports from others it seems that you must be nearing the point of committing the v9 code (or something similar) to the SVN repository. Is that right? A related question: Bill has started a Yahoo Group (possibly to changed to a Google Group?) to host discussion among the testers of his experimental version. No doubt this made good sense in early phases of the effort; there's a downside, however, to moving away from this list some important communication among programmers working on WSJT-related code. If others have views on this matter, please share them here. 3. Related to the above ISCAT developments: Bill (ND0B), do you have a few example *.wav files illustrating the RRS/RRT decoding problem? If so, could you post them somewhere or send them to me? I'd like to look into the problem. 4. It's hardly surprising that Charlie (G3WDG) and others have found that correlation decodes (in WSJT-X, presently implemented only for JT4) can produce different confidence levels and (rarely) even different message results when run against CALL3.TXT files of very different lengths. After all, the correlation algorithm is effectively answering these two questions: A) Which one of the following list of plausible messages best matches the tone sequence of the received signal? B) Is the best match better than the second-best match by a large enough margin for us to be reasonably certain we have a valid decode? Obviously, the answers to both questions will depend on the length of the list of plausible messages, which is generated from call+grid combinations derived from CALL3.TXT, augmented by the DX Call and DX Grid entries on the main window. If the list is short (but still contains the call and grid actually in the message), the chances of a correct decode and the estimated confidence in its validity will be higher than with a long list. 5. I'm delighted to hear that Steve (K9AN) has implemented a WSPR signal subtraction algorithm that works so well! I haven't looked at the code or tried it yet, but from Steve's report it sounds like we should make wsprd_exp (renamed to wsprd) the default WSPR decoder. Perhaps we can use the existing Fast / Normal / Deep selection on the Decode menu to control whether subtraction and multi-pass decoding will be used, or not? I'm not too worried about the longer decoding times: as we have found previously, significant optimizations will likely be possible after we have it working well. Furthermore, fast decoding is arguably of minimal importance in WSPR mode, since no quick operator interactions are required. 6. Signal dropouts in the *.c2 files are a concern -- we'd better find out what's causing them. An important question to be answered: are the dropouts present in the c2 array in memory, or just in the file as written to disk? That's probably enough for my first day back on the job... -- 73, Joe, K1JT -- Monitor 25 network devices or servers for free with OpManager!

HI Mike, From the original Post: --- *Ubuntu PPA Available* * I've added a PPA (i386 amd64) for Ubuntu / Debian. Its currently building on Debian Sid and Ubuntu Trusty without errors. This could use testing by other Ubuntu users to ensure things work smoothly. * The PPA is currently following the development branch, as such, is subject to frequent changes. Once Joe releases WSPR 4.0, the PPA will be updated with Bug Fixes Security only. At that point, we'll submit to Debian for Repo inclusion, with the goal of inclusion in Ubuntu 14.10 release. Once released, this PPA will become stable, and wspr-dev will be created to follow the development branch.

Hi Greg, Thanks for helping W7IUV with the Microsoft dll.

Re: [wsjt-devel] WSPR 4.0
Hi Joe, I dont know why it's not including it either. The redist DLL's are designed to be resent with packages, so no Lic issues there. If he would have installed say QT5 or Python3.x it would have put the DLL's the system32 folder already. To prevent users from having to install them, you can add the DLL's to the same directory where the .EXE file is run from, or have the Inno package install the redist.exe during WSPR. That's what Qt5 and apps like N1MM logger do, but I think they use NSIS, not Inno. I'll try to Google some and see how the Inno installer deals with that. 73's Greg, KI7MT On 06/18/2014 12:29 PM, Joe Taylor wrote: Hi Greg, Thanks for helping W7IUV with the Microsoft dll.
