+Signal Server changelog 
+
+v2.23 - 14 August 2014
+Improved diffraction model to work only for dips deeper than 20m and not to exaggerate result by an arbitrary figure (3)
+Fixed false 'frequency too low' error message for FSPL model which was intended for Hata models only.
+
+v2.22 - 
+Fixed LOS not outputting bounds
+
+v2.2 - 
+Made .dot output opt in to save some disk space
+Changed version number to line 1 of main.cpp instead of buried in code in two places.
+
+v2.1 - 
+Added experimental dual core support with -haf
+Requires double the RAM
 
 v1.3.8 - 16 Jan 2014
 Added Free Space Path Loss model (with optional diffraction)
