# Changelog · MAX25-Stack-Lite
All notable changes to MAX25-Stack-Lite are documented here. Historical
entries below may still name the upstream MAX25-Stack product.
## [MAX25-Stack-Lite 1.8.0]
Version file `1.8.0`. Aligned with upstream MAX25-Stack 1.8.0 features that
apply on one localhost host. BayCom/based default ON. Localhost TCP enforced.
| Change | Detail |
|--------|--------|
| **Product version** | `1.0.0-lite` → **`1.8.0`** (CMake + `VERSION`) |
| **Localhost TCP** | `tcp_host` must be loopback (`127.0.0.1` / `::1` / `localhost`); LAN/`0.0.0.0` refused at start |
| **Software TOT** | Time-on-target policy for max25-bcpr via `max25d.ini` |
| **1.5 s TX gap** | Minimum gap between RF/KISS frame sends |
| **max25-bcpr** | BayCom/based SER12 stack; device **`max25e0`**; default build **ON** |
| **tmodem device** | T-Modem USB KISS half-TNC entry |
| **privilege_drop** | `privilege_drop.py` installed with max25d |
| **Out of Lite** | Web UI, HyBBX co-host, multi-RF / LAN terminal (use full MAX25-Stack) |
## [MAX25-Stack 1.8.5-fallback_untested-upcoming#3-2]
Version file .
| Change | Detail |
|--------|--------|
| Docs | Move → (development material home) |
## [MAX25-Stack 1.8.5-fallback_untested-upcoming#3]
Version file `1.8.5-fallback_untested-upcoming#3` (after `#2-workhard-session_night`).
| Change | Detail |
|--------|--------|
| Release mark | **fallback_untested** · upcoming **#3** |
| CI | `max25_web_smoke` offline — `--no-stack --no-serial`, ephemeral ports, no UART |
| Docs | Ship [TNC-MODEM-DEV.md](TNC-MODEM-DEV.md) (TNC/modem bring-up) |
| Tests | Dual-device protocol smoke uses allowlisted `baycom-kiss`/`pccom-kiss` (not legacy `baycom-a`) |
| Carry-forward | Live RF fallback path not fully re-certified under this tag |
## [MAX25-Stack 1.8.5-fallback_untested-upcoming#2-workhard-session_night]
Version file `1.8.5-fallback_untested-upcoming#2-workhard-session_night` (operator night-session mark after `1.8.5-fallback_untested-upcoming#1`).
| Change | Detail |
|--------|--------|
| Release mark | **fallback_untested** · upcoming **#2** · **workhard-session_night** |
| Carry-forward | Same consistency gate posture as `1.8.5-fallback_untested-upcoming#1` — live RF fallback path not fully re-certified under this tag |
| Device face | BayCom/based SER12 → **`max25e0`** (internal `stacks/max25-bcpr/`) |
| TX/RX | Live TX gated on RX (`scripts/tx-rx-test.sh`, §0.20) |
## [MAX25-Stack 1.8.5-fallback_untested-upcoming#1]
Version file `1.8.5-fallback_untested-upcoming#1` (operator override of prior `1.8.0-upcoming#1` marking).
| Change | Detail |
|--------|--------|
| Release mark | **fallback_untested** — consistency gate green; live RF fallback path not fully re-certified under this tag |
| Device face | BayCom/based SER12 → **`max25e0`** (internal `stacks/max25-bcpr/`; never `bcpr-bc0` as product id) |
| Kernel baycom | Product path removed; vault legacy archive only |
| Start | `scripts/run-max25d.sh` — root only when ttyS/USB/SER12 needs it |
| TX/RX test | `scripts/tx-rx-test.sh` — live TX gated on RX (§0.20) |
## [MAX25-Stack 1.5.0]
Version file `1.5.0`. Product label **MAX25-Stack-v1.5.0**.
