[Dx4win] FW: USING FT8

[Rick Murphy]

Andy,
Log the QSOs as some mode that's allowed, such as TOR. Then edit the ADIF
file to change TOR to FT8 prior to uploading to LoTW.
It's important to use a mode that's three characters long - TOR, SSB, etc.
as that allows the change from "<MODE:3>TOR" to "<MODE:3>FT8" to be done
without having to change the length of the mode string (MODE:3 means three
characters of MODE.)
73,
    -Rick
