Note that this week it only takes two contacts to get in the table except
for Sunday during the DARC 10m contest. DX of the week 9LY1JM (Sierra-Leone
DXpedition). They have been on FT8 but the call upsets WSJT-X. You can get
round it by typing the call into “DX Call� then all the messages get
generated correctly. It will be corrected in the next version.
