App: V1.1.5 Apr 10 2022,13:12:01
1. Fix bug: the last character in the string of "AGC mode" is half cut off in MEMO mode
2. Fix bug: CW decoder not working
3. Fix bug: incorrect UTC offset/Time zone
4. Change the range of built-in/handheld speaker's MIC gain:
Old version: range 0~36, default 10; actual gain 0~+18dB, step 0.5dB
This version: range 0~50, default 20; actual gain -10~+15dB, step 0.5dB

Base: V1.1.5 Apr 9 2022,17:14:40
1. Fix bug: battery can't be fully charged
2. Fix bug: won't charge at power off state (occasionally)
3. Fix bug: have to switch band or press PTT once at the first time of power up, or there's no output RF power
4. Fix the problem that the built-in/handheld speaker's MIC gain is too high
5. Fixed the problem that the gain adjustment of the built-in/handheld speaker is not obvious

APP: V1.1.4 Feb 16 2022,17:15:50
1. Add FFT peak hold switch, GEN > DISPLAY SETTING > FFT PK HOLD
2. Fix bug "Gate Way" can't save in "WLAN" setting page
3. Change rx volume from 0-50 to 0-55(5dB more than prev version)
4. Change CW decoder's threshold to a higher level(better robustness but needs higher SNR)
5. Calibrate the RX S-Meter giving more accuracy
6. Add ALC level indicator(at the top-right of the bandscope area, below the tx power strings)
7. Optimize the Fw flashing logic(base board will boot-up itself after flashed the Fw)

BASE: V1.1.4 Feb 15 2022,13:19:59
1. Fix bug built-in MIC feedback to speaker sometimes
2. Fix bug base board some times not booting at power on
3. Optimize ALC algorithm
4. Optimize SWR algorithm, less jumping around
5. Optimize switching power synchronization algorithm, less birdies

TIPS:
? ALC tricks
a) ALC level equ to 0: over driving, decrease input signal level
b) ALC level equ to 100: under driving, increase input signal level
c) When doing Digi,the audio baseband signals are almost constant amplitude,
adjust the soundcard volume to make ALC level between 20-80 to get good linearity
