I've had this happen several times . I'll be in Hound mode calling the
DX for a long time , decide to stop calling . Click "Halt Tx" Now while
doing nothing , maybe reading e-mail the FOX will pick my call from his
list .. My radio automatically starts transmitting sending a report . I
thot this was cool until one day I walk back in the shack and all I had
to do was click on the ok tab to log it . My radio is a Flex 6600

My situation highlights that WSJT-X automatically enables transmit and
performs unattended operation if a remote station is in Hound mode and
a Fox targets you. Given we have pskreporter.info
<http://pskreporter.info> and other tools quickly identify who hears
who, this capability is open to abuse.

I was working WSJT-X F&H mode on both my local (DM03) and remote
station (CN95) Both WSJT-X were in Hound mode. Local station was on
standby monitoring same band.
I started working the Fox from CN95 and when the Fox responded to my
callsign, WSJT-X on DM03 automatically Enabled TX and tried to
respond. The antenna/tuner were not set correctly and I thew a SWR
alarm.
The automatic switch to Enable TX is not a desirable feature when
you have multiple stations.
Version is Windows 64bit 2.5.1 on Windows 11.

Hi Dwayne,
agreed that is not particularly desirable behaviour in this rather
unusual situation. The simple workaround is not to put WSJT-X into
FT8 DXpediition Hound mode if you have no intention of transmitting
from that instance.
