Change buttons for bands
Jednou z noviniek je zobrazenie tlačidiel pre pásma. The user can choose between two sets - for KV bands from 160 m to 70 cm or for VHF and higher frequencies up to 24 GHz. Switching and activating the buttons is done in the menu View.
FT8 decoding performance
Výrazne sa zlepšil výkon dekódovania FT8, ktoré teraz umožňuje paralelné spracovanie až na 12 vláknach. This means faster and more accurate decoding, especially with a large number of signals in the band.
Fits
Ďalšou praktickou funkciou sú filtre, which allow you to hide or highlight certain categories of stations - for example, those you have already worked on the current band or on a given day. Filters are set in the section File | Settings | Filters a zapínajú v menu Filters.
Pre náročné podmienky šírenia signálu sú určené funkcie Wait and Reply, Wait and Call a Wait and Pounce, which help optimize broadcasting and minimize unnecessary transmissions.
Nová verzia prináša aj zvukové upozornenia to receive a defined message. Access to two audio output devices is required to use them.
Full duplex mode WSJT-X 3.0
WSJT-X 3.0 podporuje Full Duplex režim, which allows simultaneous transmission and reception - ideal for satellite operation or checking your own signal, for example via webSDR.
TCI
Ďalšou významnou novinkou je podpora Transceiver Control Interface (TCI), which simplifies the connection with devices and software for controlling the transceiver and audio signal.
Performance measurement and PSV
Program teraz zobrazuje výkon vysielača a hodnotu SWR directly on the status bar. If the SWR exceeds 2.5, the transmission will automatically stop to prevent damage to the equipment.
Band hopping
Funkcia Band hopping umožňuje automaticky sledovať viac subpásiem alebo až osem definovaných frekvencií – ideálne pre contesty.
EME
Pre EME prevádzku new tools have been added, including quick switching of Q65 submodes and better support for different regulatory requirements in individual countries.
Logging in
It was also improved QSO logovanie, vrátane podpory satelitných spojení a automatického logovania mimo contest režimu.
WSJT-X 3.0 sa prispôsobuje aj moderným zariadeniam – teraz it scales graphics better on high resolution displays.
