[NLRS] Digital and the 222 & Up Contest this weekend

Hi Larry.   So I tried WSJT-X, File > Setting > Advanced and clicked on Special operating activity and EU VHF Contest.   It sends this (as an example):
WA9TT W0ZQ 530010 EN34IT
So yes, it appears to send my six digit, but also a (serial?) number that I tried to edit out of the Tx2 box, but when I do that it goes back to just EN34 when sending, not EN34it.   I suppose you could just live with the extra (serial?) number and ignore that.  
73, Jon

Sure you can...I believe it is the European contest exchange option.  I'm
not running FT8 on 10 GHz so it won't apply to me this time.

Have fun.
