David,

 

You have never heard me (and actually I have never heard others!). Of course
an alternative sound output should be used for that. It's in general always
a good idea to disable Windows system- and ALL other sounds when running
digital modes. Actually I can easily run WSJT-X and at the same time be on
Skype. I'm using the USB audio codec with my 7300 and Realtek for e.g. Skype
and JTAlert. Never had any problems.

It's so successful that I hear "CQ" spoken over the air on non-phone freqs
at least 5 different times a week. It gets very old hearing that for hours
at a time. 

 

If the devs do decide to add sounds, please let's make sure that the alert
sound interface is __never__ the same as the radio sound interface.

Subject: [wsjt-devel] On my wish list: Notification sounds. 

 

Am I really the only one there would love to have notification / alarm
sounds? I really miss the possibility for a sound when own call sign is
decoded. This is very useful when calling CQ with long time between
responses. Another sound for any call decoded is useful e.g. when monitoring
MSK 144 under low activity and poor conditions. Sounds could be a beep, ding
or a user defined wav file.     

And yes, I know that JTAlert can do it (I have earlier used this function
with great success), but after the new great color markings for B4 etc.
became included in WSJT-X, it's not any longer necessary for me to use
JTAlert (except for the sounds). I'm running remote controlled for most of
the winter time and wish to minimize the remote set-up software. Please
consider implementation of such a feature in a future version. Thanks for
your efforts and fantastic work!
