The WSJT Development Team is pleased to announce that today the Solar
Flux Index is 234 and Sunspot Number is 195.

Oh, yes: and the WSJT-X 2.6.1 General Availability (GA) release is now
available for free download from SourceForge.

Version 2.6.1 is a bug-fix release.  It corrects a flaw in Q65 mode that
prevented display of the T/R period spinner, makes initialization of the
decoded text font more robust, does more complete initialization when
the program is started in FT8 Hound mode, and corrects a bug causing
program crash with more than 100 decodes in a single FT8 sequence.
Additional details can be found in the Release Notes:
https://wsjt.sourceforge.io/wsjtx-doc/Release_Notes_2.6.1.txt

The WSJT Home Page is now located here: https://wsjt.sourceforge.io/
Direct links to installation packages for Windows, Linux, and macOS can
be found on the WSJT-X page https://wsjt.sourceforge.io/wsjtx.html

For those who like to compile from source, a complete source-code
tarball is available at the WSJT-X page. Public access to the git
repository for the WSJT project is available on the "Git" tab here:
