Advanced FT8/FT4/WSPR DX Decoder 1.0.49 receives FT8, FT4, WSPR, FST4/FST4W, Q65 and JS8 inside SDR++ and SDR++Brown on Apple Silicon Macs. JS8 reception is optional and starts off.
Changes since 1.0.45:
- DX activity bearing and its compass now follow the shared time, band, mode and reception filters, including loaded history and new live receptions. All uses the selected scope without an extra 15-minute cutoff.
- Country-based distance estimates can also supply a coarse bearing across all supported modes. Estimates remain marked [C]; received grids take priority.
- With either saved-history option enabled, an amber clock beside uptime shows elapsed time from the oldest retained reception. Its tooltip explains gaps and the retained start date.
- The map starts centered on the configured home grid, using the Home button's zoom. Reopening the window preserves the current view.
- Corrected country hover detection in World view, including longitude wrapping, dateline crossings and polar outlines.
- Bearing queries fetch only the requested farthest unique stations before reading reception payloads.
