v2.4.2-pre2
Pre-release
Second pre-release in the 2.4.2 line, fixing two more reporter-found bugs. Not a general recommendation to upgrade — if v2.4.1 is working fine for you, there's no need to touch this.
"Initialising…" spinner never clears even though the app is live (#73)
Reported by wa6auf11 (FTdx101D). The front-end poll responsible for hiding the startup overlay gave up permanently after one failed HTTP request instead of retrying, so a network hiccup during startup could strand the overlay forever behind a fully working app. Fixed.
FTDX3000 frequency display freezes over a VSPE virtual COM port (#74)
Reported by iu1teu. Meters kept updating live but frequency froze — YWC was discarding bytes from the serial receive buffer to clear stale data before each command, which could silently eat a genuine unsolicited frequency push landing at the wrong moment. Real hardware rarely loses that race; a slower virtual port (VSPE) can. Fixed: pending bytes are now processed instead of discarded.
