Ham Radio Deluxe v6.7.0.391 Released

We are pleased to announce the 6.7.0.391 release of Ham Radio Deluxe. Please download the latest version from the Ham Radio Deluxe downloads page.

This release introduces phase one of an exciting new enhancement alongside several customer-requested fixes. In total, 30 items were resolved from the development backlog.

Watch the v6.7.0.391 release demonstration:

New: Worked Status Indicators (WSIs)

In this release, we have added Worked Status Indicators (WSIs). Using data provided by your DX cluster connection, these “Phase 1” WSIs show you whether you need a spotted station by Grid, State, CQ zone, ITU zone, and Continent—regardless of band or mode. This powerful enhancement is available to all past and present customers.

Rig Control & Hardware Updates

Yaesu FTDX101D/MP and FTDX10

This release includes significant improvements for the FTDX101D/MP and FTDX10. Several new commands have been added, including overall RF power control, IF shift, manual notch filter, and keyer speed. We also focused heavily on ensuring these radios support split operations with 3rd-party programs like WSJT-X and JTDX. According to our testers, the FTDX101 is now "working gloriously in every way."

Icom IC-9700 and IC-705

• IC-9700: Data mode is now fully available.
• IC-705: Includes various minor performance improvements.

Logbook and Award Improvements

• Contest Fields: STX, STX_STRING, SRX, and SRX_STRING now appear correctly in the ALE and import/export properly to the database.
• CQ US Counties Award (USCA): Fixed an issue where counties with hyphenated names were missing from reports.
• New Digital Modes: Q65 and FT4W have been added as standard ADIF-supported modes. These can now be updated over the internet (similar to the country list), allowing us to add new modes without requiring a full software build.

The complete v6.7.0.391 release notes contain the full list of all 30 resolved items.

All Ham Radio Deluxe customers are encouraged to install this version to benefit from these improvements. Clients covered by an active Software Maintenance and Support period are also entitled to all new feature enhancements.
