A new TLF maintenance and bug-fix release is available at
http://www.hs-mittweida.de/tb/tlf-1.2.2.tar.gz
It adds quite some new features and fixes bugs found by different people
in last months. Thanks to all contributors.
New features:
- TLF has now a full support for the WAEDX contest, for EU and DX
stations and for RTTY as well - tnx to HA2OS who provided most of
the code.
For details please read doc/README_QTC.txt and
doc/README_QTC_RTTY.txt or feel free to ask here on the list.
- As a side product there are some new keywords for logcfg.dat
which allows a better configuration of multiplier and point
scoring (read man page for details):
* PFX_MULT_MULTIBAND allows multi scoring for prefixes per band
* better continent handling with CONTINENTLIST,
CONTINENT_LIST_POINTS and USE_CONTINENTLIST_ONLY.
* BANDWEIGHT_MULTIS and BANDWEIGHT_POINTS for per band weight for
points and multis
* EXCLUDE_MULTILIST and PFX_NUM_MULTI
- Improvements to the bandmap display (more to come)
* display actual QRG on bandmap (if rig control is in use)
* center bandmap around working QRG
* update bandmap every second
* do not show WARC spots in contest mode
* The actual bandmap list will be saved every 10s. Using this
information the last bandmap state will be reconstructed after
a restart of TLF.
- update CTY.DAT and callmaster database to last versions from end
of october 2015
- Add instructions about refreshing callmaster database and
cty.dat file to FAQ
- Improvements to callmaster database handling
* can now contain comment lines starting with '#'
* drop restrictions of the number of calls in the database
- tlf now send '5nn nr' if you repeat the nr after the QSO (provided
by DH5FS)
- Update of the manual page to current conventions (by N0NB)
- autosend now allows a manual start (see man page).
- You can use a custom S&P message instead of the autogenerated
one. See S&P_CALL_MSG keyword in man page
- tlf reads the audio frequency offset from fldigi via
xmlrpc (you have to configure with '--enable-fldigi-xmlrpc' and
install XMLRPC-C to use that feature) (by HA2OS).
- new startup argument: '-r', which disables radio control (HA2OS)
Bug fixes:
- Fix scoring and display of multis from ITUMULT and WAZMULT keyword
- Fix some memory leaks
- Seek gMFSK.log to the end of file, when Tlf starts
- backport some patches from the Debian distribution
- Convert the given callsign from logcfg.dat (CALL=...) always to
upper case.
For a more detailed discussion of the new features please read the
NEWS file (entries for tlf-1.2.2_pre1, _pre2 and final version) and the
man page.
As always reports about problems (or success) are welcome.
