Scott has the typical "not invented here" syndrome.

The WSJT-X developers have chosen to develop/support a generic
UDP broadcast format that is supported by *several* logging
programs. If Scott chooses not to support that interface
already used by multiple applications, that is between him
and his users. There is/should be no expectation that the
WSJTX developers will write a unique interface to support
Scott's proprietary API.

If you need something that supports Scott's API, use JT-Alert.

If you want avoid JT-Alert, tell Scott to get with the program.
