I know this is a peripheral to the software development, but I decided to ask anyway. I had a handful of successful QSO's using FT8 on Saturday. When uploading the log using TQSL it said that FT8 was an illegal mode and asked if I wanted to upload the log anyway, which I did. My QSO count on LOTW went up subsequently but I've not seen any matches. Is anyone looking into this at this point or is there anything I can do to follow up with the issue with other parties, as I am sure that people will want this whole chain to fuction.

Hi Heimir,

until the ADIF specification is updated I doubt LotW will directly support FT8 mode but it is just another DATA mode and you can add a mapping in tQSL so that your FT8 QSOs are uploaded to LotW with the mode as DATA. This should mean they are applicable for DIGI awards and certificates.

Once FT8 mode is supported by LotW you can delete the tQSL mapping and re-upload all your FT8 QSO to change the mode stored on LotW.
