Please assist us with testing a release candidate for an updated TQSL release.

This is TQSL v2.2.1-rc2 (Release candidate 2), which is available from the following links:

?

Windows:?

Mac:?

Unix:?

?

This release corrects defects and adds some minor updates since TQSL 2.2.

?

Defects corrected:

1. When installing a .TQ6 file succeeded, TQSL would delete any other certificate files for that callsign, under the assumption that they were no longer needed. If an operator with a pending callsign certificate request would then install a TQ6 file for their former callsign certificate (one that was being renewed), the private key for the pending renewal could be deleted. This would cause the subsequent TQ6 file to fail to install.? TQSL no longer deletes anything unless it can verfify on-line with LoTW that the installed certificate is the current one.

?

2. When uploading logs, TQSL would always display the progress bar. This should not have been done when signing via the command line when batch mode (-x or -q) ?was enabled.

?

3. When using the language selection dialog, TQSL could cause the main window to appear on a different area of the screen.? The window location is now preserved. In addition, TQSL doesn't destroy and re-create the main window when the language is not changed.

?

4. Updating the LoTW configuration file could fail if the user's home directory contained non-ASCII characters (Windows only).

?

5. Ensure that the password prompt window appears on top of other windows when a password is requested while signing a log.

?

6. Correct defect that would cause Cabrillo "Light" mode QSOs (300 GHz) to be rejected.

?

7. Correct handling of unrecognized ADIF MODE/SUBMODE entries to allow user-defined modes to be used.

?

8. Fix a defect on OSX that would cause an incorrect error message to be displayed when an incorrect password was entered for a callsign certificate.

?

9. Restoring an incorrect .TQ6 file when there is a pending callsign certificate request could cause the pending request to be deleted. TQSL now rejects the invalid TQ6 file and takes no other action.

?

New features:

1. TQSL attempts to cleanly close out the duplicates database when the window is closed while a signing operation is underway.

?

2. The certificate properties displays now include "Replaced" and "Expired" indicators.

?

3. Allow an alternate layout for the user interface that moves the status log to a separate tab. This is useful for users with long lists of station locations or callsign certificates.

?

4. Update the duplicates tracking to allow reporting of station location changes when the same QSO is signed from more than one station location.

?

5. Update the ADIF editor to automatically select the appropriate band when a frequency is entered.

?

6. Add "Replaced' and "Expired" tags ?to the callsign certificate properties display.

?

As always, any testing you can perform to help verify this release is appreciated.
