Changes:
-5.0: Supports audio alerts.
You MUST: "pip install playsound3" for audio to work at a command prompt. That will install sound library. Thank you.
Read the README.txt for all details.
Js8mapper reads js8call UDP output and places callsigns on map per maidenhead grid.
To install: create a directory, unzip the files into that directory.
Run the js8mapper.py script... run JS8Call. You may have to change the first line of the script to point to a different Python 3.x interpreter location. Alternatively you can run as "python js8mapper.py" or on some systems "python3 js8mapper.py".
Wait for results. Not every station has grid information, so sometimes you will hear stations but they will not appear on the map. This is not the fault of the software, we map what JS8Call gives us.
Enjoy!
