WriteLog already allows class D entries to log other class D entries.  The only gap is in the scoring, which should not be a show stopper for operating the event.  It may not make sense to change the Field Day module just for this one-time rule waiver.

Will WriteLog will be updated to score FD 2020 correctly for Class D Stations?

1)      For Field Day 2020 only, Class D stations may work all other
Field Day stations, including other Class D stations, for points.

Field Day rule 4.6 defines Class D stations as "Home stations,"
including stations operating from permanent or licensed station locations using commercial power. Class D stations ordinarily may only count contacts made with Class A, B, C, E, and F Field Day stations, but the temporary rule waiver for 2020 allows Class D stations to count contacts with other Class D stations for QSO credit.

Marsh, KA5M
