T10 mode CQ calls not displayed on CQ-monitor

Hello,
I am running T10 mode (from JTDX 1.0.75). CQRLOG is set to Remote Mode for wsjtx.
CQ-monitor shows the correct mode and band as selected, but does not display or alert any CQ calls, even though JTDX shows 2 or 3 CQs were actually decoded during a receive period.
However, using "Follow" for a specific call-sign does display and track QSO on the screen!

Switch to other modes and the CQ calls and alerts show up correctly.
Using T10 with the program AlarmeJT, all calls are identified and displayed. I interpret these as an indication that the appropriate UDP messages are being generated from JTDX .

Is there a problem in the CQ-monitor software for displaying T10?

Hi!

T10 mode is not original wsjt-x mode and so not implemented.
At the moment CQmonitor checks mode from mode letter that UDP message contains. Only known letters found let process continue for deeper examination.
Adding new mode here makes need to add it also to list of known modes. I do not remember do user added modes work directly on all selectors (filter, loc map, etc.) I have to check it.

And one of reasons is that I am not able to test T10 mode.

Im just making a bigger addition to CQmonitor, so I will look this too. How ever, no promises as I do not have JTDX to test with.

What is the mode letter fot T10?

Hi

I found from one mailgroup that T10 mode letter has been same as FT8 in beginning (~). According to mails it seems to be now (+), but there is not official confirmation in jtdx web manual.

I also checked a bit about user added modes and all others seem to populate selectors with user modes but not the worked grids map. I have to check how it can be fixed.

I can add + to list of CQmonitor modes and just hope it is ok.

HI!

Found a bug where user digital modes did not populate Mode selector. That one was Worked girds map. Made a pull request of fix.

Added T10 to CQ-monitor (using mode indicator letter "+"). This is not tested and not pull requested yet.
It is added to my test binary 2.2.0-124 that is now out for testing.

T10 reporting

Thanks for looking into this Saku.
The correct symbol for T10 is (+) . There was confusion when development versions of FT8 and T10 both used (~). Since WSJT-X implemented FT8 first, they kept (~) . JTDX accepted the change and T10 has been + ever since.
Otherwise, the UDP messages should be identical to WSJT-X, since JTDX is a fork based on WSJT-X.
If you can fix this so that CQRLOG users can use CQ-monitor for T10, that would be much appreciated. Thanks.
