Dave Bernstein reported this on the DXLabs support group today:
—————————————————————–
ADIF 3.1.0 was approved today:
ADIF 3.1.0 specifies that the representation for FT4 is an ADIF record is
<MODE:4>MFSK <SUBMODE:3>FT4
This is the representation used in the current version of DXKeeper (14.9.2) when exporting an ADIF record. When importing an ADIF record, DXKeeper interprets both
<MODE:4>MFSK <SUBMODE:3>FT4
and
<MODE:3>FT4
to mean “QSO mode is FT4”.
As the software sages say, “Be precise when exporting, but tolerant when importing”.
