HI!
Just worked a short OH-FT8 contest that uses "NA VHF" settings with WSJT-X.
I had my logging program using UDP remote connect to WSJT-X and once
contest was over I created Cabrillo logs. From WSJT-X and from my
logging program. Just to compare.
Then I started to wonderwhy logs
Oh, what a sandstorm!
I write once more as I got an idea that perhaps clears out, or not, way

middle of the audio bandpass.

Hi Sam!
Split, what Google translate says, means
How do you know that?
Perhaps on low bands but higher HF bands you can not hear others near
by. Besides most of qsos are running "split" Station A on different
audio frequency slot as opponent B.
I would rather see improvement where CQ (TX6) and answer to CQ (TX1)
would be randomized. So

This is not a bug. WSJT-X has always behaved this way, emitting a UDP

I would not like to see this long-standing behavior changed.

Hi!
Found annoying property of UDP Status (#1) message.
If you enter new callsign to DXCall column the new status message is
sent after every letter you type. This makes receiving program very hard
to decide when there is complete callsign available. (needs timeout
routine because of this)
That may also depend on RX tuning.
If you put VFO a bit off from reported frequency the audio will appear
in different place.
I do often tune a bit off to get Fox little bit higher in audio for
better copy.
And for the three times R without RR73 and move to higher frequency

Hi!
BTW, now version 2.6.0rc2 has property that if "Hold TX frequency" is
checked sending an UDP frame created from decode of station keeping QSO
can start TX. Previously it just "preloaded" Std. messages and moved RX
to station frequency but did not fire transmitter.
I see this as bad
This is interesting. It seems that my ISP is dropping some mails (not
even in trash folder) and I have missed the beginning of this chain.
But to the subject:
Timer is good, but I have suggested (without any comment) few times to
randomize hound transmit frequency. That would keep "big guns"
I can also confirm sudden crash of wsjtx where JT9 process left running.
It did happen when I was playing with new mode buttons. I pressed
several buttons during one receive period and suspect that caused the crash.
How ever I could not reproduce it any more after restart.
My setup is Fedora
