ON6MU Version 5.2

• Possible to use UTC time in Monitor-window instead of local time.
• APRS Setup: Maidenhead IARU locator (example: JO20AW) to latitude/longitude converter
  for easy APRS configuration (pastes the result into the latitude/longitude fields).
  • APRS Location storage slots
• AutoDetectUTC in menu Setup-> Extra -> allow UISS detecting UTC at start up
• Fixed strange behaviour when in the Monitor console TX-input fields were at their
  limit (backspace and last character typing etc.)
• Determine the Locale Aware Dates & its separators: convert date to display properly
  according to the regional settings.
• Monitor console statistics: detailed statistics of the contents of the monitor.
  Can be used with saved files too (re-written from scratch = additional info, more accuracy and huge speed increase)
  • RX-frames
  • total heard
  • total frames
  • UI frames
  • TX-frames
  • DAMA frames
  • times yourcall is digipeated
  • digipeat efficiency
  • Beacon stations
  • Size
  • Status of current UISS Session: TX methods used etc.
• Button for statistics in monitor console
• UISS Messenger: fixed call-sign reply bug when double clicking message in the Messenger
• UISS View Port:
  • When using Edit View Port picture gave sometimes ‘file not found'
  • Choosing "User size..." in View Port options shows "Click inside the View Port and drag until you got the desired image size..." to assist user
• The Input Fields Editor (Edit TX-input fields) ->
  • Double click in the Editor opens "Edit line"
  • Editing TX input fields gave sometimes erratic results after editing/deleting: fixed
  • Order of the length of the fields did not always match after deleting. Fixed.
  • Scrollbar in the Length section covered the contents
• [ ] Header check box removed (View only Data, no headers), but still available in right-click options in Monitor and in Options-menu.
• Enabling “Freeze monitor” shows border around monitor window.
• Reset beacon interval when clicking on any of the TX-buttons to preserve beacon interval integrity (Example: 10 sec. beacon interval = stays 10 sec. interval even if you press any of the TX buttons. The next beacon transmission will be in 10 seconds after the last clicked TX button). This prevents unnecessary band clutter from immediate beacon's transmissions while user manually transmitted a packet a second ago.
• Tab's in the UISS-NoteBook documents did not work: fixed
• Open current Log in Options menu -> AutoLog Monitor Packets and right-click on AutoLog label
• Shadow Experiment mode:
  • Shadow Experiment mode could not run when using Automated Beacon: fixed
  • Use GMT/UTC time (the time offset that has been set in Setup-menu-> Extra ->UTC-options) instead of local time in Shadow Experiment beacon.
  • Pause between transmissions implemented (default 60 seconds TX and 60 seconds RX pause). Monitor window also shows appropriate text when beacon is in pause. The pause interval can be changed in the Beacon menu.
  • Shadow Experiment Mode now activated when beacon interval is set lower then 6 seconds (was 10 seconds in previous versions)
  • Wizard for easy setup
• Beacon:
  • Super easy time input with automatic format and fool-proof input of start- and stop times
  • Show current PC time
  • Extra Shadow experiment options
  • Visual changes
• Prevention multiple clicks on TX-buttons (and so preventing unneeded TX clutter on the bands caused by accidental multiple mouse-clicks on one of TX-buttons).
• Prevented UISS from failing to detect AGWPE even if its running on rare occasions!
• Menu Find->Count words: found only one instance + did not reset next count words results: fixed
• Help-menu:
  • Stations Heard via IGate -> help URL has now standard your own call to find your IGate logs on the web!
  • Change/edit Help URLs (Stations heard on the web-menu)
• Overview of Free Registered Edition/ Pro-Edition features in Help-menu.
• Direct connect to UISS's PayPal website in About dialog and Help menu.

• In Messenger: during refresh keep last selected message focused
• Cosmetic changes and further thorough debugging.
• Contact e-mail addresses updated.
• Some spelling faults corrected.
• Donation ware is now called Pro-Edition.
• Nigel G4DCQ-9 gave me a tip: allow UISS to validate digipeated calls also with different SSID's then setup with your call sign. Example: G4DCQ-1 = G4DCQ-9 = validated as digipeated.
  Optional Setup menu-> Extra -> exact (default), ignore SSID, specified SSID (enter number)
• APRS Setup: -> APRS Location storage slots -> 6 memory slots to store your APRS location settings (latitude/longitude). To allow users to recall (write/read) their latitude/longitude location stored in 6 memory slots (saved in MemLocxx.ini files).
• Shadow Experiment Wizard (Setup-menu) for super easy setting UISS into Shadow Experiment mode: freeware registered version
• And much more!
