With all the errors I am seeing today, I am afraid to upgrade. I am doing the grid chase and have been using 99.9% FT8.?

If most people stay on 1.9, I feel like I am shooting myself in the foot. I was afraid of this happening. Especially this close to the end

of a year long event that a lot of people have been chasing with FT8. Add to that the misc. errors that are coming up and I really

don't have a good feeling.

The errors, assume, you are referring to the ssl/tsl error. Easy fix
(guidance) on the WSJT-X software website. Fixed with a simple download.
I am up and running.

The way this upgrade has been released noting the incompatability beteen
1.9 and 2.0 versions is problematic.

Plenty of FT8 signals on the scope - one decode the last two nights
using 2.0. Switched back to 1.9 and everything is decoded. I want to
make contacts, thats wasn't happening for me on 2.0, so why change.
Seems 2.0 is vulnerable the network effect.
