Hmmm...so we don't want to train or show anybody the most popular Ham mode on 
the planet???
Given the score sheet that you submit doesn't care about who you QSO'd with 
don't really need a special mode for Field Day.

So I have to wonder who cares if you don't exchange your state/mode ?  Are the 
Field Day police going to bust us?

 I’m really hoping that the Dev Team chooses NOT to make a Field Day (or any HF 
contest) variant for FT8. Too many variations in formats, exchanges, and such 
will lead to bloatware and confusion.
Since FD, in particular, is a training event, maybe we shouldn’t encourage 
semi-automated contacts.
Just my two cents.

Is there any interest in Field Day mods for WSJT-X?
I'm envisioning a "Field Day" checkbox in the Advanced box.
That would have the entries for the info State & Exchange
It would simple do custom messages like this:
 CQ FD W9MDB -- double-clicking on this would generate FD messages.W9MDB K1ABC 
EM50 -- may as well do std message here as not enough room for anything 
elseK1ABC 1BIL -- squeeze the 1BIL so 3 more chars are available for callsigns 
so 6-char plus suffx/prefix still worksR 2A NY RR73K1ABC W9MDB 73
