Should "VARA" be a mode?

Post by KJ7EHA »

I have started using VARA HF to send Winlink messages and was interested in logging the stations I've used in Log4OM. I see ARDOP, WinMor and the various "PAC" modes in the Mode pull down list but not VARA.

I read in the user guide it says that the Modes configurations are maintained by the Log4OM team. Should "VARA" be added as a mode? Or maybe "VARA-FM" and "VARA-HF?"

You may ask the ADIF guy´s about this. If it´s not been an ADIF 3 conformative
mode we don´t have it. If you like to have it you can do. Open the modelist.csv
and change whatever you like. Save it as modelist_user.csv and it´s rescued
for upcoming updates ... but ... is it a mode that is provided by eQSL, LOtW
or other´s ?? Don´t think so.

VARA is not an ADIF recognised mode, check out the ADIF specifications
