[Elecraft] FT8 Upgrade

[Rick WA6NHC]

If any are going to operate FT8 in the RTTY contest this weekend, you 
should note that 2.0-RC5 is required.  So you have a couple days to 
install it.  RC5 is expected to be the full release in Dec. at this point.

You CAN install both on the computer (install it to a different folder, 
don't add a shortcut link at install, do that after install)

There is NOTHING 'wrong' in using beta and there is nothing improper 
about informing the author/s of issues you come across. If you have no 
anomalies, don't report to them (although positive reports are useful 
too).  In the meantime, enjoy the new features or fixes.  And as they 
don't track who downloads it, you can use it in stealth mode if you 
don't wish to bother reporting but that isn't the ham spirit.
