Good evening Bill,
Sorry I don't buy your argument: should I have to prepare my QSO on the
WSJT-X client (in order to use the Hold Tx Freq and to input the Tx DF
value on the client) I don't need a UDP type 4 message any more: I use
my keyboard and that's it.
My need for a modified type 4 is driven by the opportunity to initiate
the QSO remotely. This is why the type 4 message is precious... but I
find it incomplete: it should, I believe, permit the user to choose the
DF for a split.
Please reconsider
Cheers
Serge

I wish I could specify a DF for TX with the UDP type 4 messsage
different from that of the DECODE message.
Rational behind this request is:
- When I prepare a response to a CQ, I have to check whether the freq
used for TX is clear or busy. When busy, it is strongly recommended
to choose a clearer one within the 2.7 KHz bandwidth to avoid QRM.
- The most accepted FT8 operating procedures (by ZL2IFB - The FT8
operating Guide) specify that the best way to go is using split mode,
and that makes sensesince the FT8 quarter seems to be more and more
crowded with the growing success of this mode.
I think that allowing the DF TX field in the message of type 4 to be
different from that of the original CQ would make the initiation of a
response to a decode message in line with our accepted operating
procedures and participate to the limitation of the QRM.
Listening...
Cheers

Hi Serge,
the "Hold Tx "Freq" check box on the WSJT-X main window already fills
this requirement.
