Yes,  during specific events.  Since WSJT color codes already indicate if a 
received CQ is a new grid or not, I thought having the auto answer on CQ would 
be helpful.  If I’m calling CQ and have WSJT set in Auto response and several 
stations respond,  instead of having WSJT respond to the ‘First’ call, have it 
respond to the first call that is a new grid as priority over any other 
responses.

Dave,

 

And just what exactly would be the source of data for grids worked?  I 
frequently work grids via modes other than those in the WSJT-X suite.   Or are 
you proposing that this would apply to only those grids worked within the 
WSJT-X family of programs during a specific event?  When contesting I use 
WSJT-X within N1MMLogger+ and that takes care of dupe checking.

 

Help me better understand for what you are asking.

Here's a recommendation for an upgrade: 

 

Since the 2.6.0 release you've had the option for CQ response to be 'None', 
'First' and 'Max Dist'. How about adding the option to auto respond to 'First 
New Grid'. 

This will help when the band is busy and there are multiple responses to your 
CQ. Especially during VHF/UHF contesting, where Grids are multipliers and any 
new Grid could have significant impact on your final score.
