Release Candidate WSJT-X 2.7.0-rc6 is ready for download and use by beta testers: https://wsjt.sourceforge.io/wsjtx.html. This is a bug-fix release which addresses problems related to the new SuperFox mode, reported by users of Release Candidate 5.
The SuperFox operators at K8R (American Samoa) encourage Hounds to work them again, in the remaining days of their activity, until around 22 July.
This will help the development team to exercise RC6 thoroughly before putting it to use for the N5J DXpedition to Jarvis Island, next month. The team will depart for Jarvis on 1 August
