Hi Ned. I was wondering if you have VHF/UHF features enabled in the settings? I 
wonder if this issue exists if that box is unchecked?
Sorry about the DS. I was able to work 17 JA's but never saw him.

working stations over 10000 km on 6m 
Jay,

This happened to me at the most inopportune time. I was sending a signal 
report to DS4AOW for a ATNO on 6m and it sent a NA Contest TX3 exchange 
instead of what was expected. The only way I could clear the problem was 
to change the mode to to anything other than FT8 and then back to get 
the right TX3 message. While I was sorting that all out, the band faded 
and I did not complete.

It's rare to hear stations over 10 KM, so this is a hard thing to test.
