I am using both JTAlert and WSJT-X vers 2.2.2. With JTAlert I have the following checked My call in message Wanted DXCC Wanted CQ Zone. No issues with JTAlert. I get the correct colors when DX called out.
With WSJT I have the following checked My call in Message New DXCC on band New CQ Zone on band Transmitted Message
My issue is that I get lots of light purple (New DXCC on Band) for stations I have confirmed on that band.
One other issue. I am running DXBase with DXBase Bridge. When I work a call in WSJT it automatically logs in DXBase. Periodically, when I update LOTW I load my adi file from DXBase into JTAlert. That is probably why JTAlert alerts are fine. Do I need to do something like that with WSJT or is that even possible? I know, I should update to DXLab or something. Been too lazy to do that. Is there a way for WSJT to track the calls and status loaded into JTAlert?
Tnx N2TK, Tony

Tnx N2TK, Tony Hi Tony, WSJT-X works only with its own ADIF log file. It has no knowledge or concept of a confirmed QSO. It only deals in worked or not worked. Because of that you should be seeing less highlighting on WSJT-X than with other tools that require confirmation to clear a needed thing. Although all methods should be ignoring a worked before call since if it has not provided any confirmation then it is unlikely that working them again is going to change that status. If WSJT-X is highlighting a CQ decode as new DXCC on a band then you do not have that DXCC worked on the current band in your WSJT-X ADIF log. The only caveat is if you have the "Settings->Colors->Highlight by mode" option checked, then you need to have worked a station in that DXCC Entity on the current band, using the current mode, before that highlight is not shown. 73 Bill G4WJS.

Tony,
you can substitute the WSJT-X ADIF log
file with one of your choice, but as I said, you will not
necessarily get the same results as WSJT-X does not tale account
of QSL confirmations. Why do you want two different decode
highlighting options, If JTAlert is doing what you want then turn
off the WSJT-X internal highlighting.

Hi Bill, JTAlert and WSJT working fine with selection the colors only in JTAlert. And JTAlert is showing the colors fine in WSJT too. But I have a periodic issue. As an example this morning on 12M TZ1E was calling CQ. It did not show up Green in either JTAlert or WSJT. I caught this with a glance at the screen. I worked him. In JTAlert under Wanted DXCC for individual band Mali was on the right “Wanted” screen. Prior to today I have not worked TZ on any digital mode. I had worked it before on 12M CW and SSB. Anything I am missing in the setup? Tnx N2TK, Tony

Hi Tony,
WSJT-X works only with its own ADIF log file. It has no knowledge or concept
of a confirmed QSO. It only deals in worked or not worked.
Because of that you should be seeing less highlighting on WSJT-X than with
other tools that require confirmation to clear a needed thing.
Although all methods should be ignoring a worked before call since if it has
not provided any confirmation then it is unlikely that working them again is
going to change that status.
If WSJT-X is highlighting a CQ decode as new DXCC on a band then you do not
have that DXCC worked on the current band in your WSJT-X ADIF log.
The only caveat is if you have the "Settings->Colors->Highlight by mode"
option checked, then you need to have worked a station in that DXCC Entity
on the current band, using the current mode, before that highlight is not
shown.
