Segment 1 (Deep Dive)

  • JTDX Improved Deep Dive

  • Decription

  • jtdx_improved is an enhanced version of JTDX by Igor Chernikov et al. (https://sourceforge.net/projects/jtdx/)). Both my and Igor’s forks are based on the excellent WSJT-X software by Joe Taylor K1JT, Steve Franke K9AN, Bill Somerville G4WJS and others (https://sourceforge.net/projects/wsjt/)). After the succes of my wsjt-x_improved project (https://sourceforge.net/projects/wsjt-x-improved/)) I thought it was time to implement some of its enhancements now also to JTDX …

  • Features

  • The GUI of the main window has been optimized. It is now similar to that of wsjt-x_improved AL. But there is also a version with JTDX’s default GUI.

  • “FT8”, “FT4”, and “JT” buttons make it easy to switch between the frequently used modes (useful when menus are hidden).

  • In the Wide Graph window, text of “Control” checkbox has been removed to prevent accidental ticking when setting lower audio frequencies.

  • Band Hopping for FT8, FT4 and JT65

  • Option to highlight all messages with My Call by a yellow or cyan background (like WSJT-X).

  • Highlight messages with DX Call / DX Grid.

  • Play individual alert sounds as notifications (“New DXCC”, “New Grid”, “Calling You” and so on)

  • Let JTAlert highlight individual callsigns, grids or DT values. Works from JTAlert version 2.51.3 as with WSJT-X or wsjt-x_improved.

  • New: Doubleclick on the Lookup button searches on QRZ.com for the callsign from the DX Call box.

  • New: Optimized Dark Style sheet.
