WSJTX has a network protocol that you can use to interface other
programs with it. When WSJTX decodes a message, it sends its own
message over the network which your logger can use to see if the contact
would be a dupe or not. Some loggers have this support built in, some
do not.
I wrote my own logging stuff and I added a very simple UI program that
has access to my QSO database and can look up whether a decoded message
would be a dupe or not. That's how I can tell if I need a station for
WAS, DXCC, etc. Once I start doing FT8 in the rover, I'll have to make
some tweaks for this kind of dupe checking as well.
