Because I was not Johnny-on-the-spot over the weekend, Bill beat me to posting about this new release of Thetis, version 2.10.0. I didn't want to lose the info in the posts below, so Bill has very kindly let me hijack his original post
![Smile :)](./images/smilies/icon_e_smile.gif)
The 2.10.0 installer is available in two places:
- The TAPR GitHub repository: https://github.com/TAPR/OpenHPSDR-Thetis/releases/tag/v2.10.0.0, including a snapshot of the codebase as a zip or tar.gz file
- Richie's GitHub repository: https://github.com/ramdor/Thetis/releases. The master repository there remains live and may see additional contributions as time goes on. My understanding is that Richie will be stepping away for a time to take care of personal commitments, but the repo will remain available to the primary developer cadre.
Version Description
2.10.0 is based on Richie's Github repository (https://github.com/ramdor/Thetis) and his lengthy series of 2.9.x.x beta versions. It is a cooperative effort with contributions by Laurence, Doug, Warren and Richie.
This version is not very different from 2.9.x.x versions. There are no formal release notes that I'm aware of but a long list of commits to Richie's repository is available here: https://github.com/ramdor/Thetis/commits/master
The most significant changes are as follows:
- Support for the G2 hardware now starting to be delivered by Apache. G2 users: this version is required if you wish to use Thetis with the G2. Also, be aware that, while the developers believe the risks are low, this version was developed using partial, prototype G2 hardware and may still have some bugs that need to be squashed.
- An important PureSignal bug fix for Hermes and Hermes-like (e.g. Hermes Lite 2) hardware using Protocol 1. This fixes the PureSignal instability problem that was occurring on this hardware when using Protocol 1 firmware.
- The official release of Voice Squelch, which some folks were happily already running using the latest 2.9.x.x beta versions.
- A wide variety of other bug fixes and improvements (see the commits link referenced above).
As always, please advise me of any corrections, additions or deletions required above and I will make the necessary updates.
