Mode Color on status line changed
#GeneralGroupInfo
Is there any reason that the colors of the modes was changed in version 2.3.0? The FT8 and FT4 modes are now very similar in color (pink) and much different than in the previous version. You also used

Log QSO pop up date format
My preference would be an option in the WSJTX settings menu to change the display of the date/time in the LOG QSO display. I would not want it to be dependent on the Windows settings.
