It's sole purpose in life is to allow external apps (e.g. JTAlert) to provide 
an audio alert for the watchdog timeout.Personally I'm always busy on my other 
computer doing software and stuff so the recent visual changes you made (which 
are good if you're starting at that particular computer) are still not 
enough.I've already got an audio patch on WSJT-X that provides the alert.  I 
can work on other things in the office (all my other projects) and still hear 
when it times out.

Hi Mike,

I am not quite sure how this would be delivered and used. I am a little 
wary unless there is a strong use case, this is because the code to 
reset the watchdog is in a very performance sensitive place in the UI. 
The cases mentioned so far are, I believe, now covered within WSJT-X. 
Especially as simply double clicking a decode in JTAlert, for example, 
will start a new QSO without any need for interaction with WSJT-X until 
it is necessary to progress the QSO.
