Re: [Dx4win] How to change mapping for FT8
Hi Mike, Problem solved Yes, I am importing the adif file from WSJT-X directly into DX4WIN using the ADIF import filter. Works great. Mode is correct. Signal reports now are correct. The only problem is the Comments field from WSJT-X goes into the Notes for this Call field. For example, after an import I will typically see the following in the Notes for this Call field: FT8 Sent: -08 Rcvd: -02 But I just solved the problem by simply unchecking the "db reports to comments" option under the reporting tab of settings in WSJT-X. This used to be an important way to store mode and signal report data when the prior versions of DX4WIN did not accept FT8 as a mode. But now there is no need to retain this info since it is being imported properly into DX4WIN. By turning that option off, nothing goes in the Comments field in WSJT-X and thus nothing gets imported into the Notes for this Call field in DX4WIN. Simple workaround. Sorry for the wasted bandwidth. Hi, hi Now back to working DX...
