WSJT-x V 2.1.2
In the sequence below my CQ was answered by a station with a
non-standard call sign (??)
I had several minutes earlier tried to call PJ4/NE9U, but I am not sure
who called me with a non-standard call. UW5EJX/MM was also active on the
band.

A station with a nonstandard callsign should always use the Tx1 message
to respond to a CQ. In this case he has used Tx2, which includes only a
hash code for his call, and evidently this was a station you had not
previously decoded.
In my next transmission the TX text was blank and WSJT disabled 'Enable TX'.
TX Enable could not be re-enabled until I closed and restarted WSJT-x .
Auto seq and Call 1st where enabled.
WSJT-X will not transmit a blank message, so if one of the radio buttons
next to a blank message entry field is selected, Enable Tx will be
turned off. But there's no need to closed and restarted WSJT-X.
Rather, you could select Tx6 (your CQ message) or enter something in DX
Call, click Gen Std Msgs, etc., to re-generate non-blank Tx messages.
