SmartSDR v4.2 - New features

Tom Porada

What is the mechanism tfor getting the complete set of new features for a SmartSDR+ subscriber? Do they 'just show up' after ~30 days or do I need to do something? I am using v4.2.18 now.

Mike, are there new features in 4.2.18 that SSDR+ customers will get after 30 days? If so how do we get them released to our Radio? It's now May 29 so will some features be showing up when?

Mike, I went back and re-read the install notes and answered my own question, I'm waiting for a new release of 4,2,18 for us (+) customers?

This SSDR+ issue needs to be clarified by Flex. I am using 4.2.18 and am a SSDR+ user. Features such as the transmit filter and IARU band limits are in 4.2.18 but are greyed out and thus unusable. I was under the impression that automatic activation of them would occur in 30 days, i.e., May 28 given the 4/28 release date of 4.2.18. On the other hand, the installation notes for 4.2.18 state that "radios licensed for SmartSDR+ will gain access to these new features approximately 30 days after this Early Access release with a follow-up release of SmartSDR v4.2." If the SSDR+ features are already in 4.2.18, why should it take another release to access them and why haven't they been automatically activated in 4.2.18 as of 5/28?

Yes, my question as well!

4.2.20 just released. Everything in it.

Easy install.

Looks like the releases is not a hard +30 days but an approximate 30 days. At lease now we know.

I may be wrong, But I was with the understanding that with the
upgrade to 4.2.2. SmartSDR + users that the noise mitigation sliders
were to return?? At least from previous comments Ive read about this
lead one to believe this was going to happen..

Curious!

Just installed the new release. Anybody else encountering an issue wherein the mouse wheel will tune the band regardless of where you have the cursor? Previously you could have the cursor over sliders or other menus and it would scroll those, but now it always tunes. I wish I could turn off the mouse wheel to tune period, but that is a separate discussion.
