Petr Kopecký has just released AbracaDABra 3.2.0.
You can download AbracaDABra 3.2.0 from Petr’s Github release page.
Petr welcomes your feedback and bug reports on his Github issues page.
What’s new in 3.2.0? Make sure Expert mode UI is on!
° A redesign of the Ensemble Information widget.
Bitrate statistics for the current service are displayed (1).
The colour bar shows the sub-channel allocation in the ensemble – the rectangle with cross pattern is data sub-channel (2), the others are audio (3).
° The NMEA serial port baud-rate is configurable. Make sure to set the corract COM when using NMEA serial port GPS receiver as location source.
Users can also set the timestamp in UTC in this TII tab.
° When another application ( a browser e.g.) has overtaken your screen just click on the AbracaDABra main widget in the taskbar and it will pop pup again with all other previously opened AbracaDABra widgets.
° The Ensemble logo from the SPI is supported and shown in the main window and as tool tip.
There’s no example of such a logo to be found at my location.
° Bug fixes.
Jan Van Katwijk has just updated Qt-DAB-6.9.2.
You can download it from Jan’s Github releases page.
Comments and feedback are appreciated on Qt-DAB Github issues page.
When a transmitter is received on several muxes this now shows on the map (1):
channel and TII are on the map.
Often more than one transmitter is received on a particular MUX.
Qt now shows which particular location is received in real time (2).
At my location 9A WDR Regional reception thus constantly changes between Aachen, Bärbelkreuz, Bonn, Oelde… .
The number of transmitters (3) received is now more realistic than before.
If you don’t like all this info on the map and it’s a bit too cluttered, you can switch off this new feature (showAll).

° TII codes are now also shown on the logging map.
° The loader has been visually updated.
° There’s a new 6.9.2 user manual. Download it here.
