Hi Jack,

Both of these are perhaps less than ideal but they're workarounds
until Dennis comes out with a new version.

As Julio, W4HY suggested, try keeping Show All checked.  At least the
spots you don't need aren't in red nor underlined.

Try entering some needed calls or partial calls in tools->setup->misc
setup->watch for

You still won't get a visual indicator (a nice feature request by the
way) but at least you get a audio signal which could be a WAV file or
a blast of CW from your computer alerting you.
