What's in this update

New Signal​ing format selector in Signaling Settings (choose BSS or APRS). Custom Location override for cases without GPS or when a fixed position is preferred.

Improvements

BK4819 RF driver hardening: added host-write error detection and automatic recovery on PLL loss-of-lock.

Fixes

  • APRS Mic-E: default icon set no​w applies when no icon is configured in the app, preventing malformed/incorrect packets.
  • Audio Relay: resolved occasional silent transmit due to audio re-sampling.
