Release: WSJT-X 3.0.0-rc1
September 15, 2025
-------------------------
WSJT-X 3.0.0 introduces a number of new features and capabilities.
Release Candidates give advanced users an opportunity to exercise
new features and provide feedback to developers. If you use this
Release Candidate 1, please send related comments or questions to
one of our user forums.
The following features will be already familiar to those using one of
the WSJT-X Improved 2.8.0 i+ editions, but new to users of WSJT-X
2.7.0 and all earlier versions:
- Single-click Band Buttons can be enabled from the View menu.
- Filters can be used to suppress the display of various categories
of decoded messages.
- Options to Wait and Reply, Wait and Call, and Wait and Pounce can
help you make QSOs under difficult propagation conditions while
minimizing transmitted QRM. These features, Filters, and
Auto-Sequencing are now available for all WSJT-X modes.
- Optional Audible Alerts can play a sound alerting you to reception
of a message with speficied content.
- Full Duplex Mode allows WSJT-X to transmit and receive at the same
time.
- Transceiver Control Interface (TCI) is supported for rig control
and audio input/output.
- SuperHound operators can activate Wait and Call for a SuperFox
callsign, even if SuperFox has not yet been decoded. Fox operators
receive a warning message if another Fox appears to be on the same
frequency.
- Transmitted Power and SWR can be displayed (as reported by the
radio) in a Status Bar label. Transmission can be stopped
automatically if SWR exceeds 2.5. These features work with most
modern radios controlled via Hamlib or FLRig.
- Band Hopping checkboxes for FT8, FT4 and MSK144 can activate
sequential reception intervals on the main sub-bands, or on up to
eight specified dial frequencies.
- Saved Audio Files can be scheduled for automatic deletion after 30
days.
- CALL3.TXT files for either terrestrial or EME use can be downloaded
by clicking a button on the File | Settings | Colors tab.
- Logging now supports field type for satellite QSOs, and the "Log
Automatically" option is available when not in contest mode. New
checkboxes on the File | Settings | Reporting tab provide support
for certain contests.
- The OpenSSL library is now installed automatically with WSJT-X.
- High Resolution Monitors are supported with better scaling of fonts
and widget sizes.
- New EME Features include easier ways to select dial frequencies
within an EME sub-band and to offset your Tx frequency by an
integer number of MHz from the Rx frequency. New buttons are
provided for quick access to Echo mode and six popular Q65
sub-modes.
- QMAP version 0.5 and MAP65 version 3.1 offer CQLive spotting and
some other improvements.
The following features are new for everyone:
- FT8 Decoding includes an option for parallel processing in
concurrent threads, and other changes to yield improved
performance.
- Echo mode allows you to transmit your callsign (or any other
6-character group) to the Moon and decode its echo.
- Quick Filter categories can highlight decoded transmissions
from specified territories.
- Right-click on the Band Hopping button to move you to the next
specified band hopping frequency.
- MSK144 operation: "73" messages addressed to MyCall are now also
displayed in the right pane. A bank line is inserted between
decodes for different TR periods.
- Q65 operation at VHF: A new option on the Decode menu disables
mouse clicks on the waterfall unless ALT key is held down.
- "Highlight orange" and "Highlight blue" features on the File |
Settings | Colors tab can now be used to highlight directional
calls (DX, SOTA, POTA, YOTA, etc.).
- QMAP and MAP65: Improved handling of long compound messages in Q65
mode. Corrected a bug that could cause a crash when receiving a CQ
message not containing a grid.
- A variety of other minor improvements and bug fixes.
