The station-control code rebuilt a fresh driver on every status poll and every
relay set. Stateful boards (Denkovi FTDI D2XX, USB-serial) hold an OS handle only
one opener can own, so the first poll opened the board and leaked the handle, and
every poll after failed with 'device in use' — the relays greyed out a second
after Save and auto-control never switched. Drivers are now cached per device and
reused, closed on config change. Adds a Test-connection button + detect feedback
in the device editor (reported by VK4MA).
When the configured amplifier is an SPE Expert (not the PowerGenius), the Flex
panel now shows an SPE control card — the Flex doesn't report SPE amps, so it's
driven by OpsLog's own SPE link. The PowerGenius fan-mode control is hidden when
the amp type isn't PowerGenius.
Opening About now fires a fresh CheckForUpdate with a 'Checking…' state, and
clears the update banner when the latest check finds nothing — so it reflects
reality instead of the last periodic check.
Adds GetChangelog (all entries up to the running version, no seen-marker change)
and a Help menu 'What's new' item that reopens the changelog dialog on demand.
Embeds changelog.json (per-version EN + FR notes, curated from the release's
commits). GetWhatsNew compares the stored last-seen version with the running
build and returns the notes for every newer version, once, then advances the
marker. A dialog shows them in the UI language on the first launch after update.
Seeded with the 0.20.5 notes.
Day/Week/Month/Year now show the anchor day hour-by-hour, the last 7 days, the
last 30 days, and the last 12 months — anchored to the period end (else now), in
real date order. Replaces the cyclical hour-of-day/weekday/day-of-month/month
buckets, which left future days empty and ordered the weekend after Monday.
Backend adds cyclical distributions ByHour (hour-of-day), ByDOW (weekday), ByDOM
(day-of-month) and ByMonthYr (calendar month), all UTC. The Activity-over-time
card gains a selector: Timeline keeps the chronological month trend; Day/Week/
Month/Year show the hour/weekday/day/month distribution as bars.
Adds Stats.ByBandCategory (per band: CW/phone/data counts, band-plan order) via a
modeCategory() bucketing in stats.go, and a StackedBandBars chart in the Stats
panel showing the split per band with a legend.
MSHV/WSJT-X often stamp a personal STATION_CALLSIGN (e.g. F4BPO) that differs
from the special-event/contest profile you're running in OpsLog (e.g. TM74TFR).
The QSO then failed the extsvc station-callsign guard and was never uploaded to
the (matching) Club Log logbook. Live UDP logging now stamps the active profile's
callsign when the base call genuinely differs (portable variants left alone).
publishLiveStatus only ran on QSO log or the 15s heartbeat, and the widget polled
every 15s, so an operator's band/freq (and their appearance) could trail by up to
a minute. Now ReportLiveActivity debounce-publishes ~1.5s after a freq/band/mode
change, and the widget polls every 5s (and 1.5s after qso:logged).
The 15s poll effect depended on the dbConn OBJECT, which gets a fresh reference
on several events — each reset the interval before it fired, so the widget could
stay stale for over a minute. Depend on the is-mysql boolean instead, and also
refresh ~2s after qso:logged so our own row appears promptly like the ON AIR
badge.
- Removes the RX-audio CW decoder: deletes app_cw.go + internal/cwdecode, the
cwDecoder/cwPitchHz/cwMu/cwStop App fields, and all frontend state/effects, the
header Ear button, the Tools menu item and the decoded-text strip. The CW
KEYER (WinKeyer/Icom/Flex) is untouched.
- Fix: typing a callsign while a macro is keying now aborts the CURRENT engine
(Flex CWX / Icom / WinKeyer) on the first character, not just WinKeyer during
an auto-call loop — via a shared stopKeyerTx() helper.
Implements the SPE Application Programmer's Guide protocol: packets
0x55 0x55 0x55|CNT|DATA|CHK (sum%256), OPERATE key 0x0D (toggles STANDBY/OPERATE)
and STATUS request 0x90 whose 0xAA-framed reply is a 19-field CSV (mode, RX/TX,
band, power level, output W, SWR, V/I, temp, warnings, alarms). internal/spe
polls status ~1/s over USB serial (go.bug.st/serial, 8N1) or TCP (RS232-to-
Ethernet bridge) — same codec, different transport.
Wired via startPGXL (starts the SPE client for spe* types), bindings GetSPEStatus
/ SPESetOperate, and a live status card + OPERATE/STANDBY toggle in the Amplifier
settings panel. Only the two example-anchored commands are sent (safe); other
keystroke codes were ambiguous in the guide's table. Untested on hardware.
Renames the Hardware section to Amplifier and adds an amplifier-type selector
(4O3A PowerGenius XL, SPE Expert 1.3K-FA / 1.5K-FA / 2K-FA) plus a transport
choice for the SPE amps: USB (serial COM + baud) or Network (RS232-to-Ethernet
IP:port). PGXLSettings gains Type/Transport/ComPort/Baud (keys keep the pgxl.*
prefix for back-compat). PowerGenius still drives over TCP; SPE settings are
stored but control is not wired yet (needs the SPE serial protocol).
- Denkovi (FT245 D2XX) now selectable as 4 or 8 relays (a 4-relay board just uses
the low nibble); NewDenkovi takes a count, driven by the device's Channels.
- New 'usbrelay' backend: cheap CH340/LCUS USB-serial boards over a COM port
using the common A0 protocol ([0xA0][relay][state][checksum]); write-only, so
Status is a shadow. Channel count configurable (1/2/4/8/16).
- StationDevice gains Channels; deviceRelayCount() drives label/relay counts for
the variable-size types. Device editor: channel selector + COM-port picker
(usbrelay) / FTDI-serial (denkovi).
Both untested on hardware; the A0 command set / Denkovi bit order may need a tweak
after a live test.
Third relay device alongside WebSwitch and KMTronic. Despite enumerating as a
COM port, this board is driven via FTDI D2XX synchronous bit-bang (one byte = 8
relays, bit 0 = relay 1), not serial ASCII — so we load ftd2xx.dll at runtime
(no CGO) and call FT_OpenEx/FT_SetBitMode/FT_Write, addressing the board by its
FTDI serial (e.g. DAE0006K), exactly like the vendor tool. Windows-only (stub
elsewhere); ListDenkoviDevices enumerates connected serials for the picker.
Wired into relaydev (Count/Status/Set), app.go (deviceDriver/relayCountFor/type
whitelist + ListDenkoviDevices binding), and the Station device editor (new type
+ FTDI-serial field with Detect). Untested on hardware; bit order / on-polarity
may need a flip after a live test.
Completes the CWX type-ahead loop: with send-on-type the keyer-panel CW text
already streams each typed char to the radio's CWX buffer (which keys in order,
so you can keep typing while it sends); this adds the matching un-send. Route
wkBackspace to FlexBackspaceCW -> cwx erase N, so backspacing a mistyped char in
send-on-type removes it from the buffer before the radio keys it.
The ESC abort keyed WinkeyerStop unconditionally, so it never aborted the Icom
CI-V or Flex CWX keyer. Route the stop through cwSource like the panel Stop
button does.
PortBtn was defined inside AntGeniusPanel, so every render produced a new
component type and React unmounted/remounted every port button. Normally
re-renders are rare so it's invisible, but the CW decoder floods the app with
cw:text/cw:status events (re-render many times a second), tearing the buttons
down between mousedown and mouseup — the click never completed and the antenna
never switched. Move PortBtn to module scope (stable identity) and pass
onActivate/t as props.
Adds a Rename button to Settings -> Database: renames the current SQLite database
(e.g. opslog.db -> F4BPO.db) while preserving every setting/profile, unlike New
database which starts empty. Implemented as a VACUUM INTO copy + pointer switch;
the old file (open and locked now) is scheduled via config.json delete_pending
and removed, with its -wal/-shm sidecars, on the next launch.
Adds ExportAwardForCatalog(code, version): writes the selected award as a
catalog-format JSON ({"def":…,"references":…}) stamped with a version and with
user_edited cleared, ready to paste over internal/award/catalog/<code>.json. A
new release then propagates the change to the whole team via mergeCatalog —
unedited copies auto-upgrade, edited ones are offered the update.
UI: a version input + "Publish to catalog…" button in the award editor footer,
defaulting to one past the award's current version.
DDFM now derives the French department from the address postal code, not only
from a note typed by hand — the catalog def gains the address OR-rule (\d{2}\d{3}
-> Dxx), France+Corsica scope, and version 2. On next launch every operator whose
DDFM is unedited auto-upgrades to it (user-edited copies are offered it); the
materialised award_refs then recompute so ~500+ French QSOs gain their department.
Also: a catalog definition update now clears the award_refs backfill flag, so any
future catalog bump self-heals the stored columns without a manual flag bump.
The one-shot award_refs backfill never revisited rows after it ran, so a QSO
materialized before an award gained a rule kept stale values — e.g. DDFM's
postal-code OR-rule matched nothing on the 500+ French QSOs whose department
comes from the address, only the handful with it typed in notes. Two fixes:
bump the backfill flag (awards.materialized.v2) so every operator re-materializes
once on next launch with their current definitions, and make RescanAwards (the
Awards tab Rescan button) also recompute award_refs for an on-demand refresh.
The File menu's Exit item was hard-disabled and its action had no case in the
menu dispatcher, so it did nothing. Enable it and route file.exit to QuitApp,
which runs the same graceful beforeClose shutdown as the window close button.
Live award detection merges pickable refs into award_refs per call, but nothing
dropped them when the call was cleared, so a previous call's ref lingered onto
the next (IT9AOT's ref still showing after typing F4BPO, both listed in the F3
Awards tab). Clear award_refs the moment the callsign field is emptied.
