When calling CQ dx on 80m at dusk (my loop is regularly heard in VK) there are 
local EU stations that give me just a single call then disappear, presumably 
just to be a PITA by triggering the "call 1st" feature on my rig. My answer is 
to switch it off. It means I have to sit in front of the radio and actually 
operate it but that is no different from any other mode.  It is easy to get 
reliant on the automation. The downside of my manual system means if i do 
respond to a caller my reaction time does usually mean a missed 30 second cycle 
and that isn't like other modes.

What is needed is the ability to block a callsign for an adjustable time out 
period defaulting perhaps to 15 minutes. (don't even show them in the band 
activity).  Maybe it could be done with a ctrl-click on TX 1 or some other 
better method.  Turn off Enable, clear the DXCall box and then the next valid 
decode would be able to start up.
