        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.

It is my understanding that ARRL intends to permit FT8 QSOs to count during
the 2019 ARRL RTTY Roundup in January. The ARRL web site still has the 2018
rules, so can't confirm this has been announced, but I have seen
communication from W9JJ that it will happen.

This could have some rather interesting side effects and strategy impacts.

It may also have an impact on WL users.  What will be the best way to
integrate RTTY and FT8 into Writelog for the contest?
