Of course this could be done in FT8. But as I emphasized in a
previous email, we did not want to use a different solution for FT8
and MSK144.
As currently implemented, MSK144 has no spare bits.
Two thoughts. First, aren't FT8 and MSK144 designed for very different
kinds of propagation? If so, couldn't FT8 use one of those spare bits to
indicate contest mode?
Sure, but there is wide use of both FT8 and MSK144 in the same VHF
contest. We would far prefer contest mode to behave the same way in
both modes.
As you might expect, we are busy looking at more comprehensive ways of
addressing the problem. The solution is not one for v1.9.1, however.
