Hello Everyone,
Trying to run the ARRL 222 and up contest that requires six digit
grid. I have the EU contest selected as it does the 6 digit grid, but
stops decoding after the tx1 message. I see others are having the same
issue in the contest. Unfortunately no other real options for 6 digit
exchange exists.
Any suggestions?

Hi Phil,
to fix a problem with EU Contest mode we had to make a breaking change
in the protocol. If you or your QSO partners are not using WSJT-X v2.2.0
or later then some of the exchange messages will not decode.
From the v2.2.0 release notice:
- New format for "EU VHF Contest" Tx2 and Tx3 messages
When "EU VHF Contest" is selected, the Tx2 and Tx3 messages (those
conveying signal report, serial number, and 6-character locator)
now use hashcodes for both callsigns. This change is NOT backward
compatible with earlier versions of _WSJT-X_, so all users of EU
VHF Contest messages should be sure to upgrade to version 2.2.0.
