Good news everyone!

Hamlib provides a unified environment for the development of radio

improvements since last official version.

The wiki site is available at http://apps.sourceforge.net/mediawiki/hamlib/

Version 1.2.12
* New models: PCR-2500, RX331, TRP 8255 S R
* New rotator backends: DF9GR's ERC
* Fixes and features: Paragon, TS-690S, FT-920, FT-990, FT-2000,
            Elektor SDR-USB, IC-7000, IC-7700, AR-8200, AR-8600

Download page is accessible at http://sourceforge.net/projects/hamlib,
rpms, .deb and Win32 DLL's coming soon.

Please, check it out and report to hamlib-developer@lists.sourceforge.net
If your favorite rig is not in the supported list, feel free to ask.
We need more beta-testers, so all the backends can reach the stable
and fully supported state.

Many thanks to all the developers and testers who participated
in this release. Contributors and backend maintainers are listed in
the AUTHORS file.

Have fun and let us know!

Hamlib 1.2.12 has been packaged and uploaded for Debian (unstable):
http://packages.qa.debian.org/h/hamlib.html
However it will not make it into the imminent Debian Squeeze release.

Hamlib 1.2.12 will appear in the upcoming Ubuntu Maverick release.
Unofficial packages for the current Ubuntu Lucid release are also
available:
https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-hams/+archive/ppa


Note to USB kit radio users:
The Debian and Ubuntu hamlib 1.2.12 packages include a new udev entry
which eliminates the need to use 'sudo' with the USB kit radios that
have an embedded FTDI or VOTI AVRusb controller (elektor507,
si570avrusb, dwt) and probably also for people using some USB serial
converter cables/dongles:
