HamClock Launcher 4.30

This release bundles HamClock 4.30 (Open HamClock 4.30.0). No changes have been made to the launcher itself; this update exists to bundle the new client and its updated User Guide.

🆕 Highlights from HamClock 4.30

  • Reorganized pane picker — panes are grouped into categories and selected from an inline accordion instead of a popup, with shortened labels for long entries, custom ordering within categories, and keyboard navigation (arrow keys and space)
  • New Eclipse pane — solar eclipse information, drawn with a real moon glyph and able to open the related website directly
  • WEFAX fetching from the Open HamClock Backend
  • IOTA support in the On The Air pane, plus better handling when an organization has no spots to report
  • DX Cluster filtering — filter spots by mode and band, and toggle IOTA markers on the map
  • Tropical weather options — a new options link makes Trop Wx settings easier to find, the storm path on the map can be turned on or off, and there is a direct link to open the JTWC page
  • UTC / local time toggle — clicking the UTC button switches the display to local time
  • More lightning — the strike limit has been raised to 9,999
  • HTTP 304 support for smarter caching, and movie handling moved to the backend
  • Updated User Guide covering all 4.30 features, bundled as HamClockUserGuide.pdf

🐛 Bug Fixes

  • Fixed vertical centering of the callsign
  • Redrawing the UTC button no longer erases the MOTD mailbox icon
  • Track arrows no longer run off the edge of the map

For the complete list of upstream changes, see the 4.30.0 release notes.
