Not exactly a secret.  For building on Microsoft virus, the sdk is located here:

https://sourceforge.net/projects/jtsdk/

It is my understanding that it's going through some updates, but what is posted should work.  Last time I played with it was back in version 1.7.  I haven't kept up with that platform since I do everything on Linux.

Hi Jeff,

Yes, I agree - I am a contributor to some other open source projects. Thanks for your helpful suggestion.

I've given that some thought, but at least the last time I looked the build process / toolkit for building WSJT-X on Windows is like top secret or something, and I haven't spent any time recently trying to uncover it or get it to build.

Also, unfortunately, it doesn't seem that the authors are very open to pull requests, so I make feature suggestions here.

Thanks & 73 de KM8V Jon

    How about an alternative to your prediction.   WSJT-X is open
    source.  You have complete access to the source code, and one of
    the wonderful conveniences of the package is the ability to
    customize the software to a specific style of station operations.

    That is the fancy and PC way to say, if you want a button
    somewhere specific, then you are free to put it there. There are
    no licensing restrictions, other than your modification would stay
    local to your station.   All of the compilers and libraries are
    also free and open source.

    Have at it and let us know about your progress.

    I know that this is going to get ignored, or I'm going to be told
    to "make a configuration" to "solve" this problem, but I'll again
    put in a vote to have a Hound mode checkbox on the main screen to
    switch in and out of that mode.

    There are several DXPeditions right now, some running Fox/Hound
    mode, others running multi-stream NOT fox/hound mode, and I've
    found myself switching a LOT back and forth.

    Maybe an option to enable an "expert" mode to then display some
    of these controls in an easy to use location?
