[Ham-Mac] What are WSJT modes?

[David Anderson GM4JJJ]

This is the latest news from the Joe Taylor the author of WSJT.

To:   Programmers interested in WSJT internals
From: Joe Taylor, K1JT

I have make a tar file of the source code for WSJT version 5.9.1.  If  
you are interested in contributing to the development of this  
software, or perhaps other tools that might develop from it, please  
read the description at http://pulsar.princeton.edu/~joe/K1JT/ 
WSJT_Source_Code.txt.

The source code for WSJT is available at
http://pulsar.princeton.edu/~joe/K1JT/WSJT591.tgz.

Be aware that up to now, development of WSJT has been a one-man  
effort.  As a consequence you may find that documentation of the code  
seems minimal, cryptic, or both.  In due course I hope to improve  
this situation, and also to provide additional documentation of  
overall program design.

If you download the tar file and make any use of its contents, please  
send me email describing your interest in contributing to this project.

Please take note: I will be traveling for the next two weeks, mostly  
out of email contact.  I will respond appropriately to email when I  
return home.

With best wishes,
			-- Joe Taylor, K1JT
