# Revision History # # Revision History #
## Version 1.4 -- Development snapshot H -- March 2017 ## ## Version 1.4 -- Beta Test-- April 2017 ##
**This is beta test quality. If no significant issues are reported this will be the version 1.4 release.** **This is beta test quality. If no significant issues are reported this will be the version 1.4 release.**
### New Features: ### ### New Features (since 1.3): ###
- Take advantage of new 'gpio' group and new /sys/class/gpio ownership in Raspbian Jessie. - AX.25 v2.2 connected mode. See chapter 10 of User Guide for details.
- Handle more complicated gpio naming for CubieBoard, etc.
### Bugs Fixed: ###
- IGate did not retain nul characters in the information part of a packet. This should never happen with a valid APRS packet but there are a couple cases where it has. If we encounter these malformed packets, pass them along as-is, rather than truncating.
- Don't digipeat packets when the source is my call.

## Version 1.4 -- Development snapshot G -- January 2017 ##
**This is beta test quality. If no significant issues are reported this will be the version 1.4 release.**
### New Features: ###
- New client side packet filter to select "messages" only to stations that have been heard nearby recently. This is now the default if no IS to RF filter is specified. - New client side packet filter to select "messages" only to stations that have been heard nearby recently. This is now the default if no IS to RF filter is specified.
- New beacon type, IBEACON, for sending IGate statistics.
- Expanded debug options so you can understand what is going on with packet filtering. - Expanded debug options so you can understand what is going on with packet filtering.

## Version 1.4 -- Development snapshot F -- December 2016 ##
This is a snapshot at some semi-stable point in the development of the next version. It is not well tested. New features might be incomplete, poorly documented, and subject to change.
### Bugs Fixed: ###
- -p command line option caused segmentation fault with glibc >= 2.24.

## Version 1.4 -- Development snapshot E -- December 2016 ##
This is a snapshot at some semi-stable point in the development of the next version. It is not well tested. New features might be incomplete, poorly documented, and subject to change.
### New Features: ###
- DTMF tones can be sent by putting "DTMF" in the destination address, similar to the way that Morse Code is sent.
### Bugs Fixed: ###
- The transmitter (PTT control) was being turned off too soon when sending Morse Code.
- The -qd (quiet decode) command line option now suppresses errors about improperly formed Telemetry packets.
- Longer tocall.txt files can now be handled.

### New Features: ###
- New beacon type, IBEACON, for sending IGate statistics.
- 2400 & 4800 bps PSK modems. See ***2400-4800-PSK-for-APRS-Packet-Radio.pdf*** in the doc directory for discussion. - 2400 & 4800 bps PSK modems. See ***2400-4800-PSK-for-APRS-Packet-Radio.pdf*** in the doc directory for discussion.
- The top speed of 9600 bps has been increased to 38400. You will need a sound card capable of 96k or 192k samples per second for the higher rates. Radios must also have adequate bandwidth. See ***Going-beyond-9600-baud.pdf*** in the doc directory for more details. - The top speed of 9600 bps has been increased to 38400.
