The 'photo negative' is the main reason I didn't like it since everyone is
used to the PSK-31 waterfalls that usually have a dark background and a
lighter signal trace. It's possible that TT tried the dark background, but
for some reason it didn't show right on the screen. Also, the old version
had a problem with both the sweep and the S-meter freezing when you were
tuning. They un-froze when you stopped, but it was annoying I guess they
went 'back to basics' and opted for something that was unconditionally
stable for now.

I suppose it's a matter of taste. I liked the waterfall display, but
I would have preferred it to be a photo negative of what was
implemented: no signal is dark while signal is light. Still, I look
forward to when it is again included.

No, it does not. In the original incarnation, it never really worked the
way it was intended so it was taken out. It may rise again if there is

really
warmed up to it, although some folks apparently did.
