Here are the release notes for the latest version:
9.23
* This fixes the "walking TS950" problem. IE repeated ALT F4's when the
RIT is on and non-zero, would cause the 950 to move one RIT's worth
each time it returned to the run freq.
* DVPTSR 1.04 has been released. The repeat timer now resets properly
after ESC has aborted a CQ.
* Add an offset to your rotor control with the text command OFFSET. Enter
a positive of negative number. IE +90 instructs CT to send the rotor 90
degrees clockwise relative to the "normal" setting.
* The '+' and '-' symbols in CW messages now work differently. A '+'
embedded in any cw msg speeds up that msg by 5 wpm. A '-' slows it
down by 5 wpm. At the end of the message or after ESC has been pressed,
the CW speed reverts to its value prior to the message. There is
no longer any need to balance '+' and '-' symbols in a CW message.
* FD novice bands, and DXP satellite bands are fixed.
* RTTY RST is fixed.
* VHF contest mode changes adjust the RST properly
