The tracker mode is found under Transmit Schedule as the option "Only when moving (Tracker)
This will make it transmit whenever it changes grid square.
If stationary it will transmit once every hour.
Fixes Serial port input corruption and "lock-ups"
Fixed GPS Time corrupted characters when the GPS time was 00:00:00
Tuned how fast the Transmitter can be queried for all the data.
Added a progress bar that shows the query for all the info
Added a button to trigger a re-read of all data that used to only happen when the Serial port was first opened.
Removed extra linefeeds in the Information fields
Better initial updates of all settings when the software does the initial query for all the settings
Added better support for transmitter with Beta Firmware (<1.0)
The configuration software seemed to getting stuck sometimes and the GPS time did not update.
The change tries to address this condition that happens sometimes for unknown reason,
Changed ComPort synch method from smThreadSynch to smNone
Numerous bug fixes. This is the first Release Version 1.00.
Support for Type 3 messages that will increase precision by transmitting six letter Maidenhead location
1 Added GPS Lock indicator
2 Also improved the general han.dling of incoming Serial Data.
Sometimes it doesn't display the incoming data until one closes and re-opens the serial port. This situation is much improved in this version.
Some users have reported the software is not displaying correctly or is using high amounts of memory or CPU after it has been running for many hours. It might even crash after 24 hours. So this latest change tries to adress that problem.
A new visual toot to view the GPS satellites over the horizon has been added.
Support for the Altitude coding in the power field has been added, requires firmware 0.81 in the transmitter.
Fixed bug when entering TX Pause values. Sometimes it gave error messages when saving or leaving the field.
Also fixed COM port error bug that gave error message if the device was unplugged without closing the serial port. The program could then not be closed. The software now closes properly in these cases.

0.77 Changed around the orders of hardware check in Setup()
0.78 The WSPR Beacon will now stay in Beacon mode even if the user changed something in the PC GUI like changed bands, click Save button etc
0.79 Support the new Desktop V1R10 with new improved LP filters. Fixed TX Pause limit of 32000, it can now go to 99999 seconds (27.7 Hours)

The Power setting table has been fixed.
Before the fix the power table was 0,3,6,10,13,16,20,23,26,30,33,36,40,43,46,50,53,56,60 witch is incorrect.
It is now fixed and set to 0,3,7,10,13,17,20,23,27,30,33,37,40,43,47,50,53,57,60.
Thank you goes out to Hayden VK7HH and Gary W2GNN for reporting the error.
