Bill and Joe:

I noticed that WSJT-X informed me to "switch to the RTTY RU" mode in the
Advanced settings when it detected "RU" in the CQ message when I was
monitoring the frequencies the FT Roundup contest is using this weekend.

I, like many others, don't bother to switch out the wsjtx_log.adi file when
contesting, so all QSO's are logged to the same file. However, the only
differentiator I have to detect different log entries between regular QSOs
and Contest QSOs is the addition of the <state:xx> field and the serial
number in the RST field. However, this may easily be confused with the
Field Day or other entries.

I looked up the ADIF 3.1.1 log format and saw there is a Contest-ID field
provided. Would it be feasible to enhance WSJT-X to add this field in for
the Field Day, FT8 Roundup, NA/EU VHF, WW Digi, etc. contests when those
modes are selected in the WSJT-X Advanced Preferences?

If you want a contributor to do this, I'm willing to write the code. This
shouldn't be too much effort...

Please advise and 73,
