Strictly speaking this is about N1MM+, not WSJT-X, but we know that a

you're not going to operate FT8 or FT4 with the N1MM+/WSJT-X
combination on Field Day, you can ignore the rest of this message.
If you are going to operate FT8 or FT4 from the N1MM+/WSJT-X
combination on Field Day, first make sure WSJT-X is version 2.2.2
(this version includes the new PE section).
This morning the N1MM Development Team issued Update v1.0.8501. This
version correctly logs the exchange from WSJT-X into N1MM+. The ARRL
does not require stations to submit their Field Day logs, but if you
are meticulous about accurate logging, you will want to update N1MM+
to this version. If you are not prompted to update to this version
when you next launch N1MM+, you can manually perform an update by
downloading the file from the N1MM+ web site at >Downloads >Program
Files >Latest Update (shortcut:
<https://n1mmwp.hamdocs.com/mmfiles/n1mm-logger-update-1-0-8501-jun-25-2020/>),
and then executing the update program you just downloaded to update
your copy of N1MM+.

Hi Rich and all,
further to this important information for those intending to use WSJT-X
modes during Field Day, there is a known defect that has crept into
WSJT-X v2.2.2 (sorry, that's my fault) that will impact new users and
those setting up with N1MM Logger+ integration for the first time.
WSJT-X v2.2.2 writes an invalid header to its own ADIF log file and will
fail to read back that ADIF log file when it is restarted. Fortunately a
simple one-off text edit of the ADIF file header will fix the issue.
Look for the text <eh> on the first line, and change it to <eoh>.
A second note about the new RAC PE section for operators on Prince
Edward Island during Field Day, the change to WSJT-X to support this in
WSJT-X v2.2.2 does not just affect users using PE, it affects *all*
stations trying to work them as well. The messages from PE stations will
not be decoded unless you are using v2.2.2.
