Interesting Pete.  Thanks for the Intel.

Just a thought -- There seems to be two lines of WSJT-X "improvement"
efforts, both by the same developers, all available on the *SourceForge*
site. I  had been using one of the previous versions of WSJT-X that did not
have SuperFox capability.    Two weeks I changed to version *2.7.1-devel
2407"XX"* (exact version unknown)  which had SuperFox capability and I
liked it -- it had some features which made it more operator friendly.  No,
I did not try it on a real SuperFox station as I could not find one.

So, always wanting to be on the "cutting edge", I downloaded *2.7.0-RC6*.
It lacked the features of *2.7.1-devel 240720* that I had been using so I
went "back" to *2.7.1-devel 240720*.

Like anything, it is what you want as features and what you are used to.
Having tried both, I am partial to *2.7.1-devel 240720*.  I am eager to
work a SuperFox station to make sure it works for me.

I will be monitoring the development of WSJT-X to see what works best for
me.  Thanks for your report on 2.7.0-rc6.  More work to do.

Hope all is well, all good here in Virginia.

73, Steve Roth - AD4K
