Been trying to get FT8 spots (would also apply to FT4) on the standard frequencies to show "Spot Mode" of FT8 instead of a blank.
If FT8 is in the comment field it gets put into the Spot Mode. But if, for example, a spot on 14074 comes in without a comment Spot Mode shows blank.
Goal here should be any spot in the FT8/FT4 bands is tagged with Spot Mode=FT8(FT4)
Spots are now being reported in 100Hz resolution...e.g. 14074.5
I've tried adding another special frequency but neither of these will show Spot Mode of FT8
<string>14074000|FT8</string>
<string>14074500|FT8</string>
Also tried adding a range with no log guessing on the SpotMode and then also tried the Mode tags.
<BandPlanRange>
<Band>20m</Band>
<Start>14074</Start>
<End>14077</End>
<SpotMode>FT8</SpotMode>
<Mode>FT8</Mode>
<EmissionType>DIGITAL</EmissionType>
<ModulationType>USB</ModulationType>
</BandPlanRange>
FT8/FT4 spots
Re: FT8/FT4 spots
How you got your idea?!
According to IARU bandplan for 20m on 14074 CW AND ANY DATA MODE IS ALLOWED.

Re: FT8/FT4 spots
If anybody is doing anything other than FT8 on that frequency range they are nuts.
And it's my bandplan I want to modify (user customized one if you're not familiar) and not necessarily updating the default ones.
Although I would maintain that as of today the FT8 bands for the appropriate ranges (e.g. 14074-14077) are 99.99% FT8 and almost that high for the FT4 bands.
So I want the vast majority of the spots to be correct in the Spot Mode.
