Brick-SDR 1.3.4

Brick-SDR 1.3.4

New: digital modes (DIGI menu)

• FT8 and FT4: decoding and transmitting inside the program (mfsk-core decoder, WSJT-X sensitivity). Band activity and QSO lists, click a station to select it (double click to answer), automatic QSO sequencing, ADIF log (ft_log.adi, the Log button opens its folder), UTC clock correction from the stations heard.
• RTTY and CW terminals with decoder, macros and transmit, FreeDV RADE with FreeDV Reporter, panadapter overlay, meter readings and RTTY markers. The window docks under the panadapter and is restored at start.
• Decoder audio no longer depends on the RX AF slider or MUTE.
• RTTY and FT8/FT4 now transmit at full audio level, so the Drive slider gives the same as in CW (before, RTTY gave much less power than CW at the same Drive).
• The tuning step follows the mode: SSB 500 Hz, CW and digital 10 Hz, AM/FM 1 kHz.

Fixes

• PA settings of the Brick boards were skipped when the board was found before the Setup form existed (and then never applied); fixed. Brick2_16b_15W.xml added to the profile files.
• Leaving a digital mode switches RADE off and closes its windows, DirectX error on minimize fixed.

Please test

FT8/FT4, RTTY and RADE are new and were tested on the air only on 40 m FT8 (one QSO) and with live FT8/FT4 decoding. RTTY and CW transmit, RADE on real traffic and the Reporter connection need more testing. After FT8/FT4 transmit check the TX ATT value if PureSignal is on (auto-attenuate can raise it).
