Does not accept FT8 QSOs if comment contains special characters

[DB4SCW]

Waveloggate does not accept any ADIF packets if there are special characters (like ä, ö, ü) in the comment of the QSO.

To reproduce, log a FT8 contact via WSJT-X and put a special character in the comment, like "Hütte".

Waveloggate will not accept the QSO and will not display any warning or error whatsoever.

Hi @DB4SCW - the problem is not really a waveloggate problem. it is located in the ADIF-Standard and the used ADIF-Library.
At ADIF there's a battle ongoing regarding UTF8 or only ASCII.

Besides that the issue has to be fixed at https://github.com/tcort/tcadif
