Display Slot-Time at CQ-calls
Hi de Lenz, DL8RDL.
Today I come over with this suggestion: Do you like the idea that in the "CQ calls-box" we could see the standby-time on the CQ-slot where a calling station is listening for any call? IMHO this should be the same time which is displayed at the screen of the calling station.
Now we see in the box after receiving a CQ-call 20m 00:01 DL8RDL Lenz JN68BM -09 4
I suggest:
20m 00:01 DL8RDL Lenz JN68BM -09 4/180 (slot-nr/180 Seconds)
An alternative suggestion for this, probably more cute:
the CQ-call disappears from the CQ-call box when the slottime is over and the station is back on calling-QRG.
I´m curious wether you like this idea and how difficult it would be to establish this.

95% people leave the default wait time
out of them, 95% do not wait for the entire time.
Therefore - the idea may sound good on paper, I am afraid it is not practical in the real life scenario.
