Just a minor point, I assume. If that is programmed into wsjt-x, then the change will not be backwards compatible. The CQ part of the message is actually a specific pretty long bit string (28 bits, ‘c28’). There could be another bit string for the CQF, but none of the current versions would present it as the CQF and the protocol machine would not work. If you feel a need to study it further, see https://wsjt.sourceforge.io/FT4_FT8_QEX.pdf.

CQF <call> <grid> I like that idea. It would differentiate between F/H and MSHV. But this all assumes the DX stops and calls CQ ever once in a while. -Scott AA5AM On Sun, Nov 5, 2023 at 2:38 PM Gary McDuffie via wsjt-devel <wsjt-devel@lists.sourceforge.net <mailto:wsjt-devel@lists.sourceforge.net> > wrote: > On Nov 5, 2023, at 13:08, Pino Zollo via wsjt-devel > <wsjt-devel@lists.sourceforge.net <mailto:wsjt-devel@lists.sourceforge.net> > > wrote: > > Just an idea: > > When in Hound mode the DX station should call as: > > CQH DX0CALL GRID > > or > > CH DX0CALL GRID But why? He should only be hound if he is on his published frequency (which you can determine yourself), and he should never be in hound mode if he is in the normal FT frequency segment.
