SmartStreamer4 v0.1.20b
SmartStreamer4 v0.1.20b
New
- Digital Mode (#28). SmartStreamer4 now sets up and launches WSJT-X, JTDX-Improved, and WSJT-Z (FT8/FT4) against your FlexRadio, one instance per slice, several slices at once.
- A new Launch tab is the app's home: connect to the radio, then start CW Mode (the CW Skimmer experience, unchanged) or Digital Mode.
- The streamer provisions each instance automatically: DAX RX audio device, SmartSDR CAT TCP port, unique UDP reporting port, and your call/grid are written into a per-slice profile. Your engine settings (window layout, band, FT8/FT4 choice) are preserved across launches.
- Per-slice Start/Stop on the Digital tab. Stop closes the engine gracefully so it saves its settings. A soft notice warns when a slice is not USB/DIGU (still launchable).
- Live-validated with two concurrent WSJT-X instances on SmartSDR 4.2.20 / DAXv2, including CAT, audio, and UDP port isolation per slice.
- Setup Guide rewrite (#47). The in-app guide (Help tab, Setup Guide) now covers both modes: the Launch workflow, step-by-step SmartSDR CAT TCP port creation, DAX channel assignment, digital troubleshooting, new screenshots throughout, and quick links on page 1 to jump to the Initial, CW, or Digital setup sections.
- Connect diagnostics (#42). The Logs tab gains
[FLEX]lines covering the connect path, GUI clients, pan/slice/IQ lifecycle, and disconnect cause, to make field reports actionable.
Fixes
- Radio and station disconnect detection (#45). Disconnects are detected more reliably, and a disconnect now stops all running apps (CW Skimmer and digital engines) and returns cleanly to mode selection.
- Foreign band change on a shared DAX-IQ channel (#43). LO sync is now gated by the source station, so another station's band change no longer disturbs your running skimmer.
- Trailing space in station name (#30, #44). Station names are trimmed at runtime, so a Maestro station named with a trailing space no longer shows an empty Operating tab or a missing DAX stream.
Install
Download the zip, extract, run SmartStreamer4.exe. Digital Mode additionally needs WSJT-X, JTDX, or WSJT-Z installed plus a one-time SmartSDR CAT port setup; see the Setup Guide on the Help tab.
