The way the different contest exchanges are implemented in WSJT is confusing and has been discussed many times. Users has to select "EU VHF" if they are in a HF contest requiring either a serial number and/or the full 6-digit locator. Trying to use a particular contest exchange may resulting in a

[wsjt-devel] Transmitting a 4 digit serial number in HF contests

2020-09-09 Thread Palle Preben-Hansen, OZ1RH
During this past weekend I operated OZ9EDR/P in a HF contest where a 4 digit serial number was to be exchanged. In order to let FT8 transmit this serial number I had to set WSJT Version 2.2.2 up for 'EU VHF contest'. I noticed that almost all stations I called answered, but the QSO's never

Same problem here, after the first 2-3 QSO's were logged the small error logging window from WSJT-X popped up with an error about invalid QSO data as my send rpt+exchange did not appear in the QSO data to be saved. Almost every QSO thereafter I had to enter my send report and state/serial nr to

Hi, People are using EU VHF if they are in a contest requiring either a serial number and/or the full 6-digit locator. This is required in the major VHF contests in Europe. Many contests on HF also requires a serial number, so this feature applies to more than just EU VHF. I suggest the labeling
