Detecting DX Spots

Unread post by EA3HOE »

Hi Tom!

I know currently you are detecting CQ in WSJT-X and post the callsign after the CQ as DX Call to DX Spots.
I know that this only works when people send their CQ in the correct format, CQ <call> <grid>.

Are you planning to improve the detection algorithm in the future? If you look at the image below you see that there are a lot of people "doing it wrong".

Yes, I have to change this. During implementing I followed the guidelines in the WSJT-X documentation. During my FT-8 ops I see these issues as well. Only very few operators follow the recommendations and use the correct sequence.
I will fix it before I release it to the App Store.

Hey Tom!

Another small thing to fix for the next version:
