[Mooneer Salem]

Hi all,

A prerelease version of FreeDV (v1.8.7-20221228) has been released, which contains the following vs. 20221223:

1. Code Cleanup:
    * Remove "force sync" option from Tools->Options (PR #332)
2. Enhancements:
    * Add "Easy Setup" dialog to simplify first time setup. (PR #189)

The following Codec2 content is also included:

* Fix sign of freq offset estimate for 800XA (drowe67/codec2#371)
* Allow TX BPF to be set for all OFDM modes (drowe67/codec2#368)

More information and Windows/macOS download links can be found at https://github.com/drowe67/freedv-gui/releases/tag/v1.8.7-20221228. Feedback about the new Easy Setup dialog (Tools->Easy Setup) is appreciated, as well as any audio/signal quality issues that may result from the Codec2 proposed changes.

Thanks,
