New in 1.1.3: * new backend: JRC (NRD-545), and many new rig models * rotator frontend, new easycomm backend * added Kylix and perl bindings and completed tcl/tk support * networked (RPC) rig and rotator Note: locator calculation is not working right. Download pages are accessible at http://sourceforge.net/projects/hamlib i386 rpms and .deb coming soon. Plan for 1.1.4: * Enter more models of supported backends * more rotor stuff * extend perl binding, add Java binding * collaboration with gnuradio project * etc. (any wishes?) Please, test it out and report to ham...@li... Developers are also invited to join the Hamlib team by subscribing to this mailing list. Have fun and let us know! 73's de Stephane Fillod (f8cfe) |

Hi Stephane. > Hamlib-1.1.3 has finally been released. > Check it out at http://www.hamlib.org !

Hi Riley, The home page has probably not been updated yet, but you can download the source code from the project page at http://sourceforge.net/projects/hamlib Alex, OZ9AEC Quoting Riley Williams <rh...@In...>: > Hi Stephane. > > > Hamlib-1.1.3 has finally been released. > > Check it out at http://www.hamlib.org ! > > This announcement appears to be premature as the download link from the > page specified only shows 1.1.1 as being available.

Hi Alex. > The home page has probably not been updated yet, but you can > download the source code from the project page at > http://sourceforge.net/projects/hamlib Many thanks, but as the home page appears to have completely skipped a version, I have to consider it less than reliable... You've probably seen my email to the coordinator on the HamLib mailing list (which I'm not on atm) dealing with this though...

The value labelled "Bearing" is not a bearing, but a distance. oops, sorry. Looks definitely like english is not my mother-tongue. I'll have to fix also the comments in the code. Thank you for that one too! Cheers, Stephane |

I quite simply forgot about it as I've been rather busy of late and now my $%#$@!!! air conditioner quit which makes it a tad miserble in the house. I'll try to get to it, but I have a lot of loose ends before Field Day this weekend. If there is anyone on either list that would like to take over the Hamlib webpage maintenance and/or the documentation I started, please volunteer! I had much more free time when I volunteered, but so far no one has stepped forward to relieve me, although I only askedi for relief once or twice on the Hamlib list. > Best wishes from Riley G7GOD / KB8PPG.

I think we're dealing with different questions here - My question as quoted above related to the "location calculator" rather than to the announcement that preceded it. I have to say that what puzzled me was that the download web page listed 1.1.1 as the latest version, and the announcement referred to 1.1.3 so either 1.1.2 was never released or the web page was unreliable. > If there is anyone on either list that would like to take over the > Hamlib webpage maintenance and/or the documentation I started, > please volunteer!

I'm not on the HamLib list at the moment, as I'm rather tied up with sorting my wife's health out - at the moment, the local hospital is far too near being a second home for my liking. However, it should be fairly simple to set it up to auto-update as you make the releases on SF.Net so that you can forget about it. Once my wife's health is sorted out, I'd be willing to volunteer, but I can't even guess when that might be at this stage. Best wishes from Riley G7GOD / KB8PPG. |

I'll be glad to help you out with the docs or the website (preferably not both). I have just taken my final exam and I hope that I will actually have some spare time in the next six months or so. The bad news is that I'll be gone to Geneva for the next four weeks and I will probably not be able to do anything before I'm back. I'll get back to you then (I will try not to forget it). Of course, I won't be sad if someone else will "get the job" in the meanwhile. Alex, OZ9AEC -- |
