I would rather NOT have WSJT-X have to worry about trying to access ANOTHER audio interface considering the issues current users have trying to get the audio to connect properly.  Then trying to do that over three separate OS platorms. JT-Alert works, it runs in its own thread, and can properl

Hi Uwe, Thanks. Nice to get some support here! J A version2.1 or later would be just fine. I don't think it's a big job to make that. In the simplest version: If Call=red colour then play file. And for the other one: If any decode then play file. And of course some programming must be done for se

David, You have never heard me (and actually I have never heard others!). Of course an alternative sound output should be used for that. It's in general always a good idea to disable Windows system- and ALL other sounds when running digital modes. Actually I can easily run WSJT-X and at the sam

Hi Allan, I agree with you that it would be really nice, if the new highlighting scheme one day also includes notification sounds. Would be a next logical development step. However, I think for the time being we should focus first on a successful change from 75 bit to 77 bit messages. Such a no

Maybe it is a good idea to also note that when you switch to JT65 + JT9 Mode, you also have to click on the button to change to JT65 tx. Otherwise when you switch back to JT65 mode the problem persists. Also, every time you switch to another mode and then back to JT65, the sub mode reverts to 'A'

In our case the DX call and grid were not cleared. It was the jump to TX6 and disabling TX that were the issue. Agreed it is only two mouse clicks to restart a repeat RR73 message, but having to do it repeatedly in the contest prompted the comment, in each case then starting late into the period
