If someone implements this, will it be accepted ?
This has been on my list of stuff to investigate for a long time and it
seems like a good simple feature. Not too easy to implement in code (last
time I checked) as the relevant information is not available at the
decision making point and need to be passed through several functions to
reach the deciding part. Band information is already present in the ADIF so
frequency would probably not be needed. Checkbox to enable "Per band DXCC".
I'm not saying that the main code base should implement all JTAlert
features, but a few simple ones wouldn't hurt ?
