Multi-amp: Settings->Amplifier becomes a list (amps.json, legacy single-amp keys auto-migrate to entry #1); one client per enabled amp with per-id bindings (GetAmplifiers/SaveAmplifiers/GetAmpStatuses/AmpOperate/AmpPower/AmpPowerLevel/AmpFanMode); legacy a.pgxl/a.spe/a.acom point at the first enabled amp of each family. Amp cards in FlexPanel and Station Control gain a dropdown to pick the amp; the status bar shows one clickable chip per amp. Use case: two SPEs run in parallel.
Flex v4 DSP (8000/Aurora): NRL/ANFL (lms_nr/lms_anf), NRS (speex_nr), NRF (nrf) with level sliders, RNN (rnnoise) and ANFT on/off — keys per the FlexLib slice docs; the section only shows when the radio reports these keys (dsp_v4 flag), so 6000-series panels are unchanged.
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.
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.
