Thank you Bill, Neil, and James for helping make my earlier point. Open
source code allows a station to completely customize the U.I. for their
style of operations. So for those that are on the fox/hound hunt and
desire the checkbox in a specific location for their operations, simply
move it to the location desired. Otherwise, we have to recognize and
understand that this particular development team has thought EVERYTHING
through to the end point. From robo stations, to operational mistakes.
All thought of and dealt with in a very reasonable way, with providing
the flexibility to allow customizing a station.
If someone isn't skilled with coding, then hire someone. People hire
painters to do a custom job on a house or car. People hire landscapers
to create a custom yard. People hire tailors to customize a suit or
dress. The barber or hair stylist to create a custom hair cut. People
even hire breeders to produce custom pets. So why not custom software?

Jon,
that was an attempt to defeat some of the more trivial robot stations,
unfortunately the mass opinion was that it was a misfeature so perhaps
everyone is quite happy for the FT8 sub-bands to gradually fill with
unattended robot operations?

This seems like similar logic to that that led to the
ill-conceived "move the log-it button randomly" feature.

The check box used to be on the main screen of the UI and people
kept checking it by mistake and causing all sorts of issues and
questions so it was moved to the menu and those questions and
issues ceased to be replaced by a less frequent request to put it
back where it was. The needs of the many and all that…
