FM – DAB+: my logblog!

QT-DAB 5.1 has been updated to release number 5.2 today.
What’s new?

• Audio spectrum added to the technical details (1).
• Stereo indicator (2) and PTY (3) added to the main widget.
• Code cleanup ‘under the hood’.

QIRX 4.0.6 released two days ago contained a bug and this has now been fixed in QIRX 4.0.7 just released by Clem Schmidt.

Automatic calibrate has been moved to the sync tab.

Download QIRX 4.0.7 here.
QIRX manuals: here.
Compare V3 vs V4  features here.
Mind: QIRX 4 is not free. You need a licence key.

Before installing the new version, please first manually un-install the old one, to avoid problems.

If you forgot to un-install and 4.0.7 isn’t working properly (no TII and no widgets) run the installer (.msi) again and choose ‘remove’.
Then install 4.0.7 again.

What’s new in QIRX 4.0.6 (abridged from the QIRX history page)?

• Multiplexes are now logged even if they have no entry in the database.
• The AGC for RTL-SDR receivers is changed from “Software” to “Hardware”, as there are too little gain indexes for a “step-free” regulation.
• Large logos.
• Auto calibration.
• Experimental High Resolution TII-CIR indication.

Before installing the new version, please first manually un-install the old one, to avoid problems.

If you forgot to un-install and 4.0.6 isn’t working properly (no TII and no widgets) run the installer (.msi) again and choose ‘remove’.
Then install 4.0.6 again.

ALERT

The upgrade from QIRX 4.0.5 to 4.0.6 caused a bug to appear.
Data from a strong mux is not flushed when tuning to an empty mux.
This will surely be fixed soon.

There’s a minor update in Jan Van Katwijk’s QT-DAB 4.4.2 and 5.1.
Coordinates (longitudes and latitudes of received transmitters on the localhost map are no longer separated by two dashes (–) but by a single space, making it easier to manually copy them in Google Maps.
