The FT8 keyboard-to-keyboard text mode has taken over from the weak signal JT65, which had been previously favored. The WIA Statistician Marc Hillman VK3OHM in analysing the award system data says about 20 per cent of all QSOs in 2017 were in the FT8 mode. The WIA does not issue DXCC on the basis of FT8 mode alone. QSO using FT8 mode would contribute to the "Digital" mode section. However, Marc VK3OHM finds there are 7 people who have achieved 100+ DXCC entities using the FT8 mode only.
