[Dxbase] FT8 mode and LOTW - Joe WA6AXE

Sun Jul 16 18:24:11 EDT 2017

UNTIL the FT8 mode is configured into our TQSL Config XML file -- you CAN
MAP FT8 to DATA ... FT8 is now in adif itself - but, not yet adopted into
TQSL/LOTW Config ...
Go into TQSL program / Main Menu / File / Display or Modify Preferences... /
go to the ADIF Modes Tab -- and enter
FT8 -> DATA
Save it ... NOW - you CAN make TQSL accept the adif mode of FT8..
Once the TQSL config is updated to FT8 as an accepted MODE - 
you can delete the FT8->DATA over-ride.
This FT8->DATA "will" allow a MATCH to be made in LOTW itself.
Hope this helps!!
