Yup...get an answer to CQ and the watchdog can trigger if it's timed out if
don't click before top-of-minute. So you get an alert, Enable Tx is turned off
so a little extra clicking is needed to continue the QSO.
I see what you mean about others keeping you going....hadn't thought of that.
Could you add one minute just one time? I think that should work. And any
action would reset the one-time extension?It's a minor thing but others may not
like that behavior either. I've got 6 minutes on the timeout right now and
it's happened a couple times where an answer comes in on the last CQ. de Mike

Hi Mike, I do not understand the issue here. If you are calling CQ and you get
a reply then whatever you do to respond should reset the watchdog time out.
There should be no need for any extra resets as all cases should be covered by
the generic reset actions which are: Press any key with the WSJT-X main
window active, click anywhere in the WSJT-X main window, send WSJT-X any
UDP message that results in some action. What is the use case you are
describing that doesn't get covered by the above? Perhaps the issue is that you
get a call and then at the top of the minute the "Enable Tx" gets reset due to
a watchdog time out and you are saying that shouldn't happen if a decode
containing your call is received. I'm not sure I like that because someone
calling you repeatedly will effectively disable the watchdog time out.
