Weekly Update for October 17–23, 2026

New Features

• Logging and contest software connected over TCI can now send CW and set the keyer speed.

Improvements

• We are rolling out new station software that is faster, more stable, and more tightly integrated with the rest of the system. 50% of the sites have already been upgraded.
• While you’re connected, commands to the station now go over the same direct link as your audio, so the console responds faster and stays connected through brief internet hiccups instead of reloading.
• TCI transmit audio now has a short buffer to cut down on choppy audio.

Bug Fixes

• On Icom stations, the transmit indicator and receive-antenna controls now follow the radio you’re actually using.
• Fixed an error in the station software when sending certain commands to Icom radios.
