Mike, That makes sense: if you don't want to publish your private information, then don't enable pskreporting. That is totally in the station operator's control, is it not?
To expect the developers to parse which information should be sent to pskreporter is unrealistic. Most spots already include (in addition to location information), antenna info and software identification, where's the harm in including Rig/Radio? If one doesn't want that info public, then don't PUBLISH it. I don't know what is planned for the future, but it certainly shouldn't be any big secret (such as power output). As far as ham radio is concerned what must be kept private and why? (since the above info is already being revealed). Where does one draw the line? I think your solution is the simplest: if you don't want to share your information, (which already includes your rough location, and software you are running, and your Callsign (therefore your Name, etc.)), then don't enable PSKReporter. I'm not sure, but I don't think PSKreporter is uploaded by default, you have to choose to upload...I think. If that's not the case, I would respond to those who are concerned about privacy by making the next iteration of WSJT-X default to NOT upload to PSKReporter. 73, N0AN Hasan On Sat, Jan 18, 2025 at 6:51 AM Black Michael via wsjt-devel < wsjt-devel@lists.sourceforge.net> wrote: > That's what the pskreporter checkbox is for. > > Mike W9MDB > > > > > > > > > On Saturday, January 18, 2025 at 05:28:19 AM CST, alan2--- via wsjt-devel < > wsjt-devel@lists.sourceforge.net> wrote: > > > > > > As is UK. > Alan G0TLK > > > On 17/01/2025 20:21, Laurie, VK3AMA via wsjt-devel wrote: > > > > On 18/01/2025 3:27 am, Black Michael via wsjt-devel wrote: > > > >> That's all that Hamlib NET rigctl shows for now -- I plan on putting > more rig info in that entry as well as a couple of others. > >> > >> Mike W9MDB > >> > >> > > > > I suggest you put all this user specific information behind an opt-in > setting.
