Hi Dev Team, A couple of possible bugs, and a couple of suggestions for WSJT-X after a contest weekend.
Split mode (CQ 260, etc) and Contest Mode don’t play well together. CQ TEST 260 KF2T FM18 is impossible, of course. Possibility - drop the TEST tag and let the auto-exchange cadence provide for the hint? Some people don’t seem to have figured out what “CQ TEST” means and were publicly befuddled. During multiple instances, I occasionally got lost with multiple wide graphs open. Could the graph corresponding to the active instance have the transmit “goalpost” highlighted (yellow background or something) to aid identification? Or perhaps a setting for the active instance to take focus? In the interest of better rates, it sure would be handy if we could stack callers, so that when two people answer (or someone calls in at the last exchange) I could click on them without affecting the TX state of the existing QSO and allow for the next station to be worked straight away. Would limit ot to perhaps 3, so we don’t making QSO machines. Finally, I noticed some stations I worked displayed 6-character grids in the received exchange box, despite the exchange (and transmission) being 4-characters. My guess is that the longer form may have been populated by my wsjtx_log.adi file that I once appended an export of my full station log to. Not all callers got this result. Overall, a very good shakeout for 2.2.1 this weekend. A pleasant weekend was had! George J Molnar Arlington, Virginia, USA (702) 767-5420 KF2T - FM18lu
