<div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:large">One more
point about logging FT8 contacts. You should avoid uploading
single contacts frequently to LoTW. Doing so uses more LoTW
processing time than if you upload an entire day's (24 hours)
worth of contacts. This increases availability for others and
is a far more efficient use of LoTW's processing resources.
In effect, you'll be a better LoTW "neighbor." Thanks!</div>

<div>I don’t know Easylog, but most logging software can
take input over the network directly from wsjt-x (and
other programs like Fldigi etc) via UDP. You have to setup
both ends to use the same port numbers, and take some
config steps, and then as they say, Bob is your uncle!
Fairly easy to set this up. In fact wsjt-x doesn’t even
need to be running on the same computer as long as you
have setup your network appropriately, including
security/firewalls etc.</div>

Your post has made me rethink my logging FT8
strategy (I'm not an FT8 convert yet - and likely
never will be). I currently use <a
href="https://www.easylog.com/" target="_blank"
moz-do-not-send="true">Easylog</a>, which is
feature rich and I like it a lot. It reads the
radio settings via a USB connection. When I enter
the call sign, it gets the contact name and
location from QRZ and when I hit 'save', uploads
it to LotW. There's no good reason to use the
WSJT-X logging feature simply because it exists -
especially since Easylog understands FT8.<br>

<pre>Tony:
I recommend you use a separate logging program for all of your contacts.
I use N3FJP Amateur Contact Log. I import my WSJT-X contacts from the .ADI file into Amateur Contact Log, then, with two mouse clicks, submit them to LOTW.
N3FJP Amateur Contact Log has a very nominal, one time, license fee. I paid the fee for the entire suite of N3FJP tools. Well worth the very minor cost.
A bonus with Amateur Contact Log is, with a minor configuration change you can do in less than 5 minutes, you can use it to format POTA logs for submission.
I assume other logging programs can also import *.ADI files, too. This should be a standard feature of logging programs.

Subject: [bars] ADI viewing software
Howdy,
I'm logging FT8 contacts using WSJT-X. I'm looking for a simple program to view the created ADI logs. Recommendations requested.
Thanx and 73s, Tony W1DYS
