No reports??? But this shows

090500  -8  0.8  297 ~  RJ6B RR73; UA6LND <3DA0RU> -18

What I am missing now... Or do 3DA2RU run some Clone
of WSJTX?

My WSJTX version 2.5.0 GA, tried with Fedora package
and Compiled version.
Same results with both

Hi Jarmo,

I can confirm this is a defect, WSJT-X FT8 DXpedition Fox mode is not generating correctly hashed messages in FT8 DXpedition Fox mode for that callsign. This may be due to some code used in older modes like JT65 being ctivated where 3DA0 prefixes are treated specially due to their non-standard composition. With FT8 they *should* be treated as non-standard calls, but clearly not in this case.

Hi Jarmo,

further to the above, the FT8 DXpedition User Guide implies (perhaps it should state explicitly) that only compound non-standard calls are supported for the Fox station. This is because some messages are constructed with the shorter base call rather than using the full compound call or a hash code. It may be that non-standard Fox calls that are not compound calls cannot be catered for in FT8 DXpedition Mode.
