What logging software are you using? ADIF version 3.0.9 defines RST_SENT and RST_RCVD as a string which is “signal report sent to the contacted station” and “signal report from the contacted station”. I move my FT8 contacts from wsjt-x to my logging software, which is the DXLab Suite. DXKeeper has no problem handling the db numbers and signs from wsjt-x that are included in the ADIF log file signal report fields that I import. This seems to be a lot better choice than to try to create a non-standard signal report arrangement that nothing will understand. Hope this helps. 73, John K8AJS [email protected] _______________________________________________ wsjt-devel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/wsjt-devel
