Not yet started in WA VK6.
The section on digital contacts is very unclear.
It requires exchange of a 6 figure grid locator. For FT8 and most other modes except WSPR only a 4 digit grid square is sent.
Is there something else ?
The exchange of 6-character grid locator is necessary for determination of distance between stations for scoring. The VHF/UHF Field Days are distance-based events.
