Hi Ellis,
The simplest way is to uncheck the Call 1st box. You can then choose who to respond to. There is plenty of time to do this, and is what I use when I want to work DX, but get called by all and sundry.

If you call CQ DX and the guy down the road responds, capturing the QSO and preventing you responding to a DX station you may want to block them. Similarly, if there is a country who have suspended all licences like Ukraine did earlier this year. Or there is a known pirate who keeps responding... 73 de Ellis G7SAI On Fri, 15 Jul 2022 at 14:52, Bob Turner <n2scj-lists@...> wrote: Not sure if WSJTx has a "worked before" highlighting. If it does, I don't use it. However, it does have highlighting for "needed entities". By properly setting up the "needed entries" color coding, you can tell the "worked before" by the lack of highlighting.
WSJTx keeps its wsjtx_log.adi file in the log directory found on the file menu.
Based upon what I've observed over the past few years, I'm fairly certain the WSJTx developers have no interest in providing functionality other than digging a signal out of the noise. I doubt they will incorporate GT (or JT Alert) into WSJTx. It's also doubtful they will build in a real logbook as many others exist for that purpose.

Two items, I don't want a "filter out" for any station I decode regardless of band, grid, country, or callsign etc. However I would like a 'color' specific to that station I have worked before and it is captured within WSJT. Doesn't WSJTkeeps a running log of the stations worked and logged within WJST? I would think that a cross reference check is already done at some 'basic' level and then color coded.
And to that thought, when working contests that do not require a GRID report, or stations configured to include the "R" before the RR73 etc, could not WSJT using the existing log search for that messing GRID? The same for if you are tail ending to call that station?
I am aware of GRID tracker etc, but that seems to be JUST ANOTHER SOFTWARE application that could be easily incorporated into WSJT?

Hi,
Whilst it is nice to be able to filter your incoming traffic, spare a thought for those who are in "unwanted" grids/dxcc/whatever. Remember you all started out as newcomers to the bands and if there had been this level of filtering, you'd have never got your DXCC or other awards, because you would have been "filtered" out.
I use GridTracker, but leave it set to New calls/unconfirmed. At least that lets someone I've not worked before get through. I've seen openings on 6M to the States where I've got dozens of flags in PSK, but not one reply to a CQ. I'm in a "common" G grid and expect most have worked it before, So it's filtered out. But I may need your grid, but can't get it because you won't see me.
