I wonder if it is possible for LOGic to display FTx and other digital modes for spots that are on standard FTx frequencies even if the mode is not included in the comment, such as 14074 ~ 14075 or so. It would be so nice if those spots showed up as DATA instead of CW, especially for us CW operators.

Sure. Set the FTx segment up as its own band in tools/setup/bands.

For example, 20M is currently set up like this from the factory:

14.0002 - 14.15 CW
14.151 - 14.349 USB

You will need to set it up as
14.0002 - 14.0739 CW
14.074 - 14.075 FT8
14.0751 - 14.15 CW
14.151 - 14.349 USB

Be sure to turn on PROCESS SPOTS FOR THIS BAND for any new records created.

Note that I used FT8 instead of DATA as you requested. You CAN use DATA if you want. Before changing the band data, go to tools/setup/modes, and enter a new mode record where both the actual mode and the award mode is DATA. I would be more included to enter a new record where the mode is FTX and the award mode is DATA.

Let me know if any questions.

Tnx & 73,

It doesn't seem to work, Dennis. Tell me what I'm doing wrong here.

What frequency are you testing with? It looks like it should log FT8 for 7.074.

Test by creating a test spot in the spotlog.

You're right guys, it does work...it turns out I have to restart LOGic for the changes to take effect. Thanks for your help!

Good thinking. I think I just restarted the Spot log form so it could reread the new changes. I apologize for not mentioning that.
