Hi Gary,
GUI design is trivial when you're dealing with a static mock-up that
doesn't actually do anything. Implementing a functional and attractive
user interface is far from trivial, especially in a program like WSJT-X
that operates in many different "modes" with very different goals.
Active contributors to WSJT-X comprise a tiny group of people --
individuals with many other demands on their time. It should be fairly
obvious that our top priorities lie much more often in areas of program
capability and functionality rather than creating a "pretty face".
Typically we work first on new capabilities, leaving GUI design issues
until "some later time".
On the other hand, we like pretty faces, too! We're always on the
lookout for potential contributors with skills and interests in GUI
design.

One more UI suggestion: when we’re trying to identify blobs on the
waterfall, it’s not easy to figure out (at a glance) the exact audio
frequencies since most of the scale markers are unlabelled. I’d suggest
changing from this …

I’ve deliberately chosen a smaller font size in light grey so the
intermediate values are less prominent than the round 500’s.
