The Adif development group added a mode called Dynamic and SUBMODES for Vara. Reference: http://adif.org.uk/313/ADIF_313.htm
I reached out to ARRL LOTW asking when these will be added and they advised
“Modes like Dynamic and its Submodes will be reviewed by the ARRL-LOTW committee in coming weeks for potential inclusion in TQSL to allow such QSOs to be uploaded to LOTW”
Last feedback received was adding modes impacts awards. It sounded liked details were being worked.
I just send a follow up email to W9JJ who is over radio sports at ARRL
I would encourage others to contact him to express support for adding DYNAMIC mode (for VARA)
It is a year later now and this still has not happened!!
How long does it take?
I already put in a ticket and got blown off with a generic reply. PLEASE feel free to contact me with any messages I could send and who to send them to. ADIF was approved a LONG time ago. I have no clue why ARRL LoTW has not implemented VARA HF. My email is listed on qrz.com Thank you in advance, Bob KB6CIO
Released in V5
Done. Released on V4.2
One can now configure how it will be reported. Changing the modem type will auto populate it. and you can still change it manually using a dropdown
I will change it for the next VarAC version.
eQSL.cc already added it to their modes. QRZ.com also lists it:
So I think LoTW would have some motivation to add it also... Clublog actually doesn't accept the mode...
