There is already a F/H mode, safely placed where it can't be accidentally checked as the old VHF contest box (at least I believe it was the VHF contest) was at one point.
The suggestion has been to clone your current FT8 configuration, and set up the frequencies in that clone to the DXPedition frequencies. All you have to do is switch to that configuration, and you're already set to go. However, if you're talking about being able to switch because you see what looks like F/H in the standard FT8 frequencies, its not WSJT-X DXPedition mode, but another program using the FT8 sources for encode/decode but a different 'multi-thread' mode that does NOT block out the standard frequencies. I would not want to see such a change as it then rewards bad behavior (IMHO). Neil, KN3ILZ On 4/20/2019 5:46 PM, Frank Kirschner wrote:
Between the Hold Tx Freq checkbox and the Call 1st checkbox, there is room for several more checkboxes. One I would suggest is Fox/Hound mode. I would also suggest this automatically set Split to either Rig or Fake It, which could be selected somewhere else. If the menus are turned off, it takes a while to turn them on and navigate to the correct spot to set fox/hound and split mode. This sometimes is long enough to miss a weak one. A checkbox would not only make it faster, but it would encourage using that mode for those who are still learning FT8 operation. 73, Frank KF6E
