FT8 on DXpedition Freqs

HI all
For those who use macssdr and its integrated FT8 mode, you may notice there are a set of fixed frequency for FT8 operation.
However most Dxpedition dont operate there. To work those dxpedition just set freq select to manual. and tune the slice to the desired frequency.
for example FT8WW is operatin on 10.131 FT8...not F/H but a MSHV which still works like regular FT8 from this end....
i did this on macbook air M1.and using a flex 6600m..see attached
as far as i know, this does not work for F/H mode as Intergated FT8 does not respond to change freq from the Fox station

Thanks Paul I had somehow overlooked that option in the list. Had been using WSJT-X. Just heard FT8WW for the 1st time on FT8 and was able to work him on 30M. Heard him the other day on 20M CW but he went QRT before I was able to get him. Was sitting on my couch and saw him on my iPad but did transfer to desk to work him so I could tweak my beam. I need to save up my pennies and get me a Rotor Genius so I can swing it remotely easily.
