Hi!
Introducing several new features and bugfixes.

  • The main new feature is dual receive from the same or from two different kiwis. To activate it on the same kiwi, just press Y at runtime, pressing Y again switches A/B VFOs. You can independently change all RX parameters and audio volume. To turn off the second receiver, you may either press M to mute it or press SHIFT-Y. To activate the 2nd RX from a different kiwi, just press Q (to select a different kiwi) and it will be stored in the permanent Kiwi repository saved to disk. Now that your different kiwi is stored with a number, lets's say NUMBER 1, you can activate the 2nd rx by pressing Q, then R1 and ENTER. Now pressing Y will contact the nr. 1 receiver and open it as the 2nd rx;
  • Another cool feature is temporal averaging to detect extremely weak signals (a bit in the spirit of Leif Asbrink's LINRAD): you may increase (G key) or reduce (H) the averaging. Keep in mind that an averaging of 100X produces a frame rate of one hundredth, so it may be useful to monitor the band for an extended time;
  • Colormap fine tuning: up to now the colormap was automatically and dynamically set up. For most applications it was fine, but to really exploit the averaging you can now change the upper (lower) limits by pressing , and . (+ SHIFT respectively). This parameters are visible in the upper left part of the spectrum.
  • DX cluster is now much better integrated and the graphical presentation is much better;
  • Click and drag tuning on the spectrum display, with visual freq shift indicator.

73!
