Doesn't that beg for an option then? You can skip the voice....I just realized
WSJT-X doesn't support that anyways.
How about a message in the RX window that tells you the runaway kicked in. I
just don't like a dialog box that gets hidden so when you then try to click for
a reply nothing happens and you have to go search for the dialog....quite
frustrating.
compared to seeing 8 CQ's in the window and the Enable TX button not enabled I
think I've got you beat :-)

Perhaps in your setup, but not in mine. I don't use (and don't want)
voice announcements from a program. When the watchdog times out, it's
probably because I left the shack while calling CQ. I simply want the
program to stop doing so, and to leave an indication of my forgetfulness
on screen for me to see when I come back.
