Many thanks to Ermanno, IK7EZN, for discovering a bug in MAP65 v2.3.0
r624. The bug appeared when multiple *.tf2 files had been opened and
processed. It has now been fixed, and revision 626 is posted on the
WSJT web site.

Hi Joe,

I'm having a problem with MAP65v230r626 to which I upgraded from MAP65v200r488 this morning.
It works ok but...

1.When I start up MAP65 with Linrad 3.38 having a centre frequency of 28.130MHz,
MAP65 starts with the correct calibrations on the Wide Graph: 125, 130,135 etc,
and then after a second or so changes to major ticks of 124, 129, 134 etc.

2. If I change the centre freq of Linrad to 28.131MHz,
the major ticks of MAP65 change to 125, 130, 135 etc.

3. If I click on, say, the 116 marker, the green line appears on 117, always one to the right of where I click.

However the calibration does seem to be correct.  A signal on 116 appears on the 116 marker.

Am I missing something here?

Many thanks to Les, W2LPL, and Carsten, DM1CG, for helping me to
identify and correct a bug in recent revisions of MAP65 v2.3.0.

This bug appeared only when using direct soundcard inputto MAP65. The
symptom was that a weaker "ghost signal" appeared in the waterfall
display in receive intervals following the reception of a very strong
signal.

The bug has been fixed revision 2468, now available on the WSJT web site:

A direct link to the installation file is

As always, additional bug reports and feature requests for MAP65 will be

An initial draft of the MAP65 User's Guide and a new program revision,
MAP65 v2.3.0 r2471, have been posted on the WSJT web site.

Direct links to the User's Guide and Windows installation package are as
follows:

http://physics.princeton.edu/pulsar/K1JT/MAP65_Users_Guide.pdf
http://physics.princeton.edu/pulsar/K1JT/MAP65_230r2471.exe

MAP65 r2471 accesses an online version of the new User's Guide from the
Help menu, or when you hit the "F1" key. It also corrects a problem in
revision 2468 that prevented it from reading previously recorded *.tf2
and *.iq files.

Bug reports and suggestions for improving the User's Guide will be very
