The red 'B' means WriteLog thinks that frequency is not within the accepted bands for that contest.  Is that the case, or not, for the example you apparently tried?

Per the advice of AA5AU, I've downloaded the UDP software, and confirmed that it works with WSJT-X on my computer, and sends the FT8 contacts on to Writelog, when using the ARRL RTTY Roundup module.
Now, when I tried it with a contest module for an ARRL VHF contest, it logs the contact with the correct grid in Writelog, but gives me a "B" - and does not count the QSO as valid.
Is there something else that I need to do in order to make the UDP link work for the upcoming January VHF contest?  Or is that not possible?
Thanks for any help.
