Ham Radio Deluxe v6.7.0.262 Release Announcement

The 6.7.0.262 version of Ham Radio Deluxe is now available for download. Please download it from the Download pages on our website at:

www.HamRadioDeluxe.com

This release completes the work that began with 6.7.0.244. In general, the intent of this release is to resolve a number of long-standing customer complaints about callsign lookup (the QTH field was not correct and many fields were not being populated at all; sources like QRZ.com, HamQTH, QRZCQ, and HamCall all presented data differently and Logbook wasn't correctly parsing the data). This also solves a long-standing customer complaint where QSOs with stations that are not part of a DXCC country (like maritime mobile and aeronautical mobile) were being counted in DXCC awards totals. Some users reported a "Encountered and improper argument" error in DM-780; fixed.

All those who have purchased Ham Radio Deluxe at any time in the past should download and install this version in order to benefit from all bug fixes. You are entitled to them. Our clients who are covered by an active Software Maintenance and Support period are entitled to Feature Enhancements.

What's Up Next

With these release announcements, I will being flashing what the priorities are the the new few releases. We'll begin to focus on finite releases related to specific customer requests.

Next Release - We'll begin immediately to code the corrections to the FT4 submode. This will make it easier to match FT4 QSOs in Logbook through LOTW download.

Following that - we're working to obtain a specimen FTdx101D from Yaesu, finish the work on QSL labeling, updating the IOTA list, and ADIF data improvements to the Satellite application. (not limited to these items)
