Hi Aaron, If you have an Android phone or tablet I have an app which does everything you ask for and more. If I may be allowed a bit of promotion, it will provide audible alerts by country, callsign (including by callsign prefix), continent, your callsign, etc. You can also configure it to not alert you if the signal strength is below a specific threshold. Since it's an app you can keep it running while watching TV, mowing the lawn, etc. I like VHF so I use it to alert me when 6m or 2m is active.
It is WiFi only so it only works around the home, not across the cellular network. At startup it shows you how to set up WSJT-X to send data to it. It can work with JTAlert and GridTracker by using their forwarding feature (I have a web page which illustrates this). (End of shameless promotion). The app is WSJT-X Monitor Pro https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.feotec.wsjt_xmonitor.noads&hl=en_US (paid) and WSJT-X Monitor, https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.feotec.wsjt_xmonitor.ads&hl=en_US , free version.
