FWIW ... while you can use the beta to build WSJT-X, it may be easier to
use v2 of the JTSDK as it contains all the build scripts, and you
wouldn't have to reinvent the wheel. Those build scripts will
download the source to the local directory, and then build the make
files and anything else needed.
That said, what you're doing is already in JT-Alert, and it works quite
well.

Hi all, I'm interested in making some local changes to WSJT-X and am a
little overwhelmed with where to start. I'm an experienced software
engineer although it's been years since I last worked in C and C++.
I've never used Qt.
I have downloaded version 3.0 beta if the SDK, and successfully
installed it. I have also successfully built hamlib.
I want to add a Filter option to the main menu, and add the ability to
filter which records are displayed. Specifically I'm trying to
exclude US records so DX records stand out. I'm thinking about
excluding CQ's from US stations, or possibly other options. Why do I
want to do this? Because I'm a DXer and especially interested in using
FT8 on the low bands to work DX.
So where to start? What I should I be looking at to get started on my
Filter modification?
Thank you, 73,
