Hi Gary and you are right in actual use of the application. It's just a
visual thing with these old eyes I guess! ;-)

Hi Dwight.
I agree with you that the green RX marker doesn't stand out ... but I'm
curious as to why that's a problem for you, if you are talking about FT8 on
HF anyway (you didn't mention how you are using WSJT-X).
The software simultaneously decodes all the signals it can across the whole
waterfall, and automatically moves the green bar over the station we are
currently working, so there is little to no advantage in us manually moving
the green marker. It's vaguely useful to be able to see whether or not
another station is transmitting a response back to me, prior to their
message being decoded, and it's useful to track decodes from some wanted DX
station in the right hand pane but other than that I mostly ignore the green
marker, letting it jump around as it likes.
I gather the software makes more of an effort to decode weak sigs at the
green marker frequency but in practice (on HF with FT8) I don't notice any
difference. It doesn't seem to matter. [I haven't tested that objectively
- it's just my subjective opinion.]
The red TX marker, on the other hand, does need to be placed manually on the
right spot. So it is good that the red marker stands out visually.

I'm finding the little green marker for receiving to be too small,
especially when the waterfall is full of signals. It don't stick out like
the red marker. As seconds are critical, spending a second or two to find it
can be critical. Would it be possible to increase it's height, like X2?
thank you 73 Dwight NS9I
