[Vk5-wx-sonde] auto_rx v1.3.2 released

[Mark Jessop]

Hi all,

I've just released v1.3.2 of auto_rx.

This release brings the following changes:
* Move to soft-decision-based demodulation for most sonde decoders. This
gives a few dB additional demodulation performance for DFM, M10 and RS92
decoders. LMS6 and RS41 decoding performance is essentially unchanged.
* Fix issues with RS41 battery voltage decoding in some rare situations.
* Change CSV log file to include all possible fields, making it a bit more
consistent.
* Update scripts that process log files to handle these changes.
* Drop SDRs which repeatedly fail from the global SDR list. If all SDRs
have failed, auto_rx will exit (and promptly be restarted by systemd, if
your system is set up that way).
* SDRs are now used in alphanumerical order, with the lowest in the list
used first.
* Add initial Meteomodem M20 decode capability. This will only upload to
Habhub, until a common APRS callsign format has been agreed upon by other
radiosonde decoding software developers.

A new feature which may be of interest to some is the addition of
distance-based temporary blocking. This allows you to optimise your station
to track only sondes within a certain radius range.
This feature adds a few optional parameters to the bottom of the
configuration file. Their use is described here:

**Remember to run `./build.sh` within the auto_rx directory to re-compile
the decoders after updating or decoding will not work!**

Please report any problems encountered either on this mailing list (
