[wsjt-devel] Valid DXCC checking feature

Would it be an idea to implement a 'Valid DXCC' checking and 'Pirate Detection' feature? The problem is that pirate callsigns like the Dxx from the Donetsk region in Russia show up as new/unknown DXCC's. It would be fairly easy to implement a check against the ITU list and the valid DXCC list and

Against it. There are too many callsigns being issued for numerous reasons - anniversaries / covid / 1st etc. Having the software check (and keep having to get internal lists updates from other sites) is not really practical. I can’t think of an easy way to detect pirates - non-dxcc you have

I think agree with you Tom, and as you suggest, creating the possibility to have a list of calls that is not answered by WSJT-X might be a better solution. An 'Ignore' list where users can put in calls of known bots and other callsign ranges other that they don't want to work would absolutely be a

Jim, yes while working FST4-60 you will not auto detect FST4-300 signals which I was using unless you manually see the signal line, and see its vertical size past the '60' markers, to then increase the time capture to match it, as I am sure you are well aware, but that is why you have not seen

That's a good point. Even though I can see the signal better doesn't mean better decode I guess. My FST4-60 N6SS decode was done at 3K default band setting, and I have not decoded on FST4 with 600 Hz RFilter yet, however it is very beneficial on FT8. I will stay at 3k for initial testing, I did try
