Wow Rod I have used DXbase since about 1985 and never spotted that menu
before!

Someone please double check me on this -
Here's how I remember doing it:
Tools|Database Access|Digital Mode Names - the last one on the list -
then click on the first box to the right of "Digital Modes" to add a new mode
to the list. (enter FT8) and close out of drop down.
When entering a new FT8 QSO into DXBase, the first mode entry is "Digital" and then the
Sub Mode to select is "FT8".
Works well for me and I have many confirmed FT8 QSOs in LoTW.
---------------------- My Problem with this mode ------------------
I can't get the signal report columns to accept a "-" in front of the db number
I am entering. For example if I want to enter
a "-09" for a signal report, it comes out as "09". Anyone know how to do this?
Hope this helps! 73 and Happy New Year

Subject: [Dxbase] How to add FT8 as a submode in DXBASE ?
Using DXBASE v.1.10
Is there a way to include (add) FT8 under TOOL/OPTIONS/USER
OPTIONS/DEFAULT PSK SUBMODE ?
That way it will show up in LoTW (via tQSL) as correct DIGI submode ?
Happy New Year to everyone.
