Hello WSJT-X developers..
This not a bug report. I'm sending this email to share a couple of thoughts
that might enhance the already fine program.
DXpedition Mode
It is apparent to me that many hams have difficulty in understanding the
settings changes that must be implemented in order to use this mode.
(Witness the KH1 DXpedition.)
Perhaps the addition of tabs or icons on the main data screen would help.
One such tab or icon could bear the title "Enter DXpedition Mode" and a
second one could be entitled "Exit DXpedition Mode."
When clicking on the DXpedition Mode, the following could occur:
1. "Hound" function would automatically be enabled,
2. A pop-up window would require the user to supply the DXpedition's
call and grid square,
3. The Rx field would automatically be set to 300Hz,
4. A pop-up would appear to alert the user to view the waterfall to
select a Tx frequency above 1,000Hz. If less than 1,000Hz is entered, the
entry would be rejected and a bold message would alert the user to use an
acceptable Tx frequency. Perhaps a default of, say, 1,900Hz could be
provided by the program.
When "Exit DXpedition Mode" is clicked, all of the WSJT-X settings would
automatically be restored to the normal FT-8 options.
Location of adif log file
I regularly import wsjtx_log.adi into my DX4WIN log. I would like to be
able to select the computer directory into which the wsjt-x adif log file is
to be saved. Perhaps the program could cause the log entries to be saved at
the default location and concurrently at the location I specify.
Thank you for spending the time to read this email.
73 & keep up the great work.
Mark Weiss, K6FG
