2020-06-28 Thread Jim Brown
There are times when it could be quite helpful to be able to switch special operating features on and off from the main operating window. One of those times occurred this weekend, when I wanted to be able to switch between FD messages to work FD stations and normal mode to work DX stations. My

[wsjt-devel] Feature request: Dead Band Beacon

2020-06-13 Thread Peter Sumner
Hello Development team, while I know any QSO automation features are out of the question I would like to ask that a 'dead band beacon' be considered for some future release of WSJT-X. My thought process sort of goes along these lines. Enable Deadband beacon option tick box, and set "enable.

[wsjt-devel] Feature Request: Separator Line on no decodes

2020-01-19 Thread Jon Anhold
In the Band Activity window, I have the option set to insert a separator line between decode periods. Working the VHF contest this weekend, I've come across something that I think would be a "nice to have". The separator line only appears when there are actual decodes to display in the band

It seems that having WSJT-X send the the new RX frequency to both VFOs when a band change happens would be the simplest solution. The user could then hit the TUNE button while still in split mode, get a match, then set up the split TX freq on the other VFO... Another option would be for the user

Well I found what was preventing me from building wsjtx (qt5-5.14.0 on Arch seems to have introduced the issue, rolling it back to qt5-5.13.2 got me back in business) But that change I thought might implement the behavior I'm hoping for didn't do the trick. I'll keep poking at it, but I'm not

Unfortunately something broke my build toolchain so I can't poke around at testing a change myself until I have time to find out what broke it, but I suspect this might have something to do with setting next_state_.split in PollingTransceiver::do_post_frequency (PollingTransceiver.cpp:80) On
