This release - when directing PropView 1.7.1 or later to initiate a propagation prediction for a Spot Database Entry, specifies the mode as well as the frequency - provides the option to direct PropView 1.8.7 or later to generate a 24 hour short and long path DX station SNR and probability forecasts for a Spot Database Entry based on the entry's location, frequency, and mode, and assuming the DX Station is emitting 100 watts with a 3 degree takeoff angle *** 24 hour short and long path DX station SNR and probability forecasts can be generated for Spot Database Entries that are needed, or for Entries whose callsign is on the Special Callsign List with a PREDICTSNR tag, or for all Entries *** extends the Spot Database to record the current hour short path SNR in the new SPSNR field and the current hour long path SNR in the new LPSNR field *** extends the Spot Database to record the required SNR in the new ReqSNR field, as determined by PropView from the Entry's mode *** extends the Spot Database to record the current hour probability of the required SNR being met via the short path in the new SPProb field *** extends the Spot Database to record the current hour probability of the required SNR being met via the long path in the new LPProb field *** updates the SPSNR, LPSNR, SPProb, and LPProb fields at the beginning of each new hour, and at startup *** clears the SPSNR, LPSNR, SPProb, and LPProb fields at the beginning of each new UTC month *** displays the length of the SNR prediction request queue when it is greater than 0 in the new "Propagation Prediction" panel on the Configuration window's General tab *** provides an "Autostart PropView" option that when enabled with "Enable SNR Prediction" enabled, starts PropView when SpotCollector starts up, and queues incoming spots until PropView is running (for a maximum of 30 seconds) *** relocates the "Request Prop Forecast" option to the new "Propagation Prediction" panel on the Configuration window's General tab, and renames it "Display prediction of double-click" - provides an option that governs whether the SQL expression that triggers an email alarm is included in the email message (tnx to Parker W5ADD) - with "use multiple monitors" enabled, relocates to the primary monitor any window that isn't being displayed on a monitor - works around a Microsoft OS version reporting defect so that Windows 10 is properly reported in errorlog.txt file startup headers - updates the audio announcement for ZL9 "New Zealand Subantarctic Islands" - when run for the first time, suggests that the user install DXView to manage databases (tnx to Terry WB4OSS) - updates the ConfigurationGeneral.htm, ConfigurationNotications.htm, and SpotDatabae.htm documentation files. Special thanks go to Nuno CT2IRY and Dave N2DPF for their many contributions to this new version of SpotCollector. Notes: 1. Update your firewall and anti-malware applications to consider this new version of SpotCollector to be "safe" 2. If this upgrade doesn't work correctly, see the "After an Upgrade" section of 3. After upgrading, to revert to the previous version of SpotCollector, see 4. Control over the new propagation prediction capabilities is provided via a new "Propagation Prediction" panel on the Configuration window's General tab SpotCollector 7.3.9 is available via the DXLab Launcher, and via 73, Dave, AA6YQ
