[WriteLog] FT8 in 2019 RTTY Roundup

[Keith Beebe W3KB]

My Yaesu FT1000MP Mark V works just fine on FT8.

Driven with RigBlaster audio interface and use Upper Side Band (USB) to transmit.

         This idea of FT8 and RTTY Roundup got my interest. I just might get

         in it this year.  My main rig FT1k Mark5 will not do FT8.  My second

         rig  TS870 and computer will operate FT8 just fine.  they both have

         Writelog on them.  Maybe I could do a merge from second radio/computer

         to main computer ?  Then again maybe Writelog will give us a real update

         including FT8 support.
