[Joseph T. <jo...@Pr...>]

The WSJT Development Team is pleased to announce the WSJT-X 2.7.0 General Availability (GA) release. This is the first GA release since version 2.6.1, two years ago. Major enhancements include a new companion program called QMAP, new Special Operating Activities called “Q65 Pileup” and “SuperFox”, and a new “Message System” feature designed for sending requests to change to another band or mode. More details can be found in the Release Notes here: https://wsjt.sourceforge.io/Release_Notes.txt.



Direct links for downloading pre-built installation packages for Windows, Linux, and macOS can be found on the WSJT-X web page: https://wsjt.sourceforge.io/wsjtx.html. For those who like to compile from source, a complete source-code tarball is available there as well.



Please note: A few changes and updates to the WSJT-X User Guide are still to be completed.

If you will be translating the User Guide to another language, please wait for an announcement that the updated English guide is ready and available online.
