How about an alternative to your prediction. WSJT-X is open source.
You have complete access to the source code, and one of the wonderful
conveniences of the package is the ability to customize the software to
a specific style of station operations.
That is the fancy and PC way to say, if y
Hi Jeff,
Yes, I agree - I am a contributor to some other open source projects.
Thanks for your helpful suggestion.
I've given that some thought, but at least the last time I looked the build
process / toolkit for building WSJT-X on Windows is like top secret or
something, and I haven't spent any
Not exactly a secret. For building on Microsoft virus, the sdk is

In your case I would suggest create a separate CONFIGURATION for each

I wish to take a moment please to outline what I see is the problem with

when this comes up. I dont think the case why the configuration mode

as F/H specifically requires you to reply to a Fox CQ above 1000 hz, and
since the decoder decodes the entire passband based on the base
frequency set, you would not need any 'waterfall history' to determine
where to Tx your reply.
Maybe I'm missing the point.
That said, my reply was spe
The check box used to be on the main screen of the UI and people kept checking

Well said, Grant. From where I sit, very active on 6M, and both DX
chasing and contesting on HF and MF, the only poor decisions made by by
the design team are based on their lack of broad experience below VHF.
That's the only possible explanation for how 40M FT4 ended up where it did.

Jim,
FYI - Neil and James don't believe a clear frequency matters based on past
conversations I have had with them. I contend they have never tried chasing
DX where every path starts at 8000 miles (ie out of VK). The standard FT8
channels are so congested these days that trying to target working

Rather than extra buttons / tick boxes on the existing busy screen for a
dedicated group of users, would a small pop-out window like that used for
the Astronomical data display be a better proposal?
I know its a bit of a radical shift of thinking and of course would
