The WSJT Development Group is pleased to announce the general availability (GA) release of WSJT-X Version 2.2.2. A brief summary of new features is provided here; for further details see the Release Notes:
WSJT-X 2.2.2 is a bug-fix release, mainly to incorporate the new RAC section PE (Prince Edward Island) into the FT8/FT4/MSK144 Contest Mode messages for ARRL Field Day.
Upgrading from earlier versions of WSJT-X should be seamless. There is no need to uninstall a previous version or move any files.

Release: WSJT-X 2.2.2
June 22, 2020
---------------------
WSJT-X v2.2.2 is a bug fix release, mainly to incorporate the new RAC
section PE into the FT8/FT4/MSK144 Contest Mode for Field Day.
- Stations intending to operate in Field Day (FD) are urged to
upgrade to this release, without it you cannot set your section to
PE, and of equal importance you cannot decode contest messages from
stations who are operating from PE without this upgrade.
- FT8 decoder speeded up in Normal and Fast modes. This change gives
a speed of decoding closer to that of v2.1.2 without compromising
the number of decodes. It is particularly targeted for slower
single board computer users such as the Raspberry Pi Model 3 or
similar.
- Thanks to our user interface language translation contributors for
many improvements to the translated strings.
- The DX Grid field is now cleared automatically when the DX Call
field is changed. Care should be taken to complete entry of a
callsign before entering a grid square.
