For those interested in this particular data mode, this new release might be of interest, details below.
“Hey Folks! This is not a test, this is not a joke, it’s actually happening. The public release of JS8Call version 1.0 is here! You’ll find all of the public releases (now and future version) of JS8Call downloadable from this page: http://files.js8call.com/latest.html
For those following along at home, there were a few fixes from RC3 to 1.0 GA. I also added in one last feature…a “Check for Updates” on startup (by default) so we all know when a new version is released. There’s a full changelog below.
I want to thank all of the thousands of folks who have stuck around through the development of JS8Call. It has been a fun journey and there’s tons more to come! Stick around in the list if you want to have “early access” to any of the new features developed.”
Beautiful day so later this afternoon why not finish it off by listening to GB2RS bought to you this evening by Mike GD6ICR at 18:30 on the GB3IM repeater network.
Mike GD6ICR has 20 years of Radcom 1981-2000. If you would like to pick them up please email the IOMARS on info@iomars.im, thank you.
IOMARS is running an Advanced exam on Wednesday 10th April at 16:30 at the club shack in Ballasalla. Anyone wishing to take the exam please let Nigel GD6AFB know no later than Friday 5th April 2019.
