Aside from contesting, sorting the block of ‘band activity’ pane decodes within each cycle would be useful for regular DXing too, sorting them by sender’s callsign, frequency, strength, distance or whatever. A full time auto-sort would be nice if there are enough CPU cycles free but for the odd occasions when I’m hunting back through the decodes for something specific, a ‘click now to sort’ on-demand sorter would work too, or even a search function.
[This has been raised before. It is another user interface enhancement suggestion, low priority, incompletely specified as yet, just something to add to the long list for some rainy day in the future. Maybe.] 73 Gary ZL2iFB From: Mark James <markhjame...@gmail.com> Sent: 30 November 2018 09:19 To: WSJT software development <wsjt-devel@lists.sourceforge.net> Subject: Re: [wsjt-devel] on dupes Maybe it would help if there was a setting to keep the contest window sorted by callsign. This might not help as much once that list gets very large, but I think it would help the casual contester.

After a dozen or so contacts (many from the same call area) it became hard to remember who I'd worked and therefore difficult to see an in-progress QSO about to end and know whether I should call the station or not rather than waiting for him to call CQ again. Color coding in a future version would add much to the feasibility of using FT8 in a major contest like CQ-WPX, Field Day and others. Without it, such contests will contain logs with many dupes. Everything worked well and as expected as I took turns between calling CQ and S&P.
