Hi Paul,
I explain some more,
All the programs are starting from WSJT-X (author K1JT) open source and
Make different screens etc. BUT they all use the same HAMLIB rigfiles.
For instance Yaesu FT-817ND - FT857 - FT897 are not working with these hamlib
rigfiles
After I complained so many times they finally will look into it deeper.
Check WSJT-X webpage also problems
Release: WSJT-X 2.1.2
November 26, 2019
---------------------
WSJT-X 2.1.2 is a bug fix only release which fixes a major regression
in the Hamlib package bundled with WSJT-X v2.1.1.
This was for ICOM radio problems
Release: WSJT-X 2.1.1
November 25, 2019
---------------------
WSJT-X 2.1.1 is a bug fix only release addressing regressions in the
prior v2.1.0 release.
All new radio's are not direct compatible with these third party hamlib files
so can't work either
This is my point Paul, when you have a rig that works with these hamlib files
it's ok.
But when it doesn't work and have to wait until they fix it or make a driver
for it
You have a problem, If Radio is not connected it can broadcast wrong data to
DX4WIN.
At this point it's your own mistake and you can correct b4 upload.
But If it gets automatically uploaded on LoTW etc some could or will write
this garbage is sended out by DX4WIN users ..............

Hi Guy, Hi all
I am not a specialist, but what is the problem when the FT8 (to make it
short) programs get the frequency from the rig (therefore is correct), logs it
into the adif file that everyboidy knows about, and DX4Win can "eat" that
informlation automatically ?
I see no room for mistakes...
Well, I must admit I see no way how you can make a mistake using ythose
programs and call o the wrong period, like several people have done. If yoy
doucble-click on the station you want to call, there is no way you can do a
mistake,... Anyway, this is another matter...
Which other programs do not have the UDP broadcast ? Anyone here using them ?
Or just the 3 you mentioned ?
If people's logs have mistakes, whether they auto-upload or they upload later,
they will both carry the error....
My 3 cents !
