[Dx4win] FT8 Integration

[Mike Cizek WØVTT]

Hello Wayne,

The process is not, and likely will not be, automated.  The easiest way I
have found is to import my WSJT QSOs into dx4win after an operating
session.  Make a shortcut to wsjtx_log.adi in the folder where you keep
your log and any import or export files.  Simply select:
File > Import/Export > ADIF > Import
Under options for dupes, select: Imported QSO is ignored (which should be
the default).  Once you set up the shortcut, the entire process only takes
10 or 15 seconds.

You can find your wsjtx_log.adi file in the wsjtx app data folder.

73,
Mike Cizek WØVTT
