I imagine ARRL will add FT8 to the TQSL config.xml file fairly soon,
just as they did with QRA64 and MSK144 in March.

Until then, you can map FT8 to a generic "DATA" mode in TQSL. I've had
several FT8 QSOs matched by LoTW this way.

TQSL File->Display or Modify Preferences->ADIF Modes->Add

In the ADIF Mode window add "FT8"
In the Resulting TQSL mode window select DATA.
