Wes, I don’t run the other programs you’re using with FT8 (I use JTDX, but
it interfaces the same WSJT-X), but with LPBridge connected I’ve had no
issues communicating with my K3S and other programs. If you haven’t tried
them yet, download Joe’s (WA6AXA) WSJT-X and JTDX bridge interfaces. I
discovered the bridge will load the last FT8 QSO into DXBase even when
DXBase isn’t connected to my K3S. So your FT8 program can be a port hog but
you can still log QSO’s into DXBase.
