2Frs when Hunting while Acitvating (if that makes sense)

POTA, SOTA, and Other Activities

I go to a park. Say, US-6839. I’m a wuss, so I activate by hunting till I reach my goal (still scared of managing a pile-up, I prefer busting through). One day. I digress. I find a park on a spot, click, give them my park# and bam, logged. Now I go to the next spot and they have 2 parks, 3 parks, whatever. More then 1. I click the “their park tab” and add the etra park. I’ve tried a comma US–XXXX, US-XXXX. Tried no space. Tried a semi-colon. I hit the cute little arrow thingy. At the end of the day, I only ever see the one park that they self spotted with. What am I doing wrong. Please Mr. Wizzard, help me…

@N0LAF We will be adding the ability to add the multiple parks via a comma separated entry soon. For now you simply just type in the park number, wait till the drop down shows up and click the park in the drop down. See this video i created for you.

Let me know if you have any trouble.

I finally tried your suggestion and after playing around with some test logs, I got it. What threw me off is when I do as directed, there is no change in the log book. Still only see the one log for the QSO with the additional park and count does not change. Yesterday I worked US-6839 (again) and had two, 2fers. My WRL logbook only shows 12 QSO’s, but when I open the ADIF in a viewer it shows the 2 extra parks, the QSO count is 14. When I uploaded to the POTA site all was good, 14 QSO’s showing all the parks. Only my WRL log does not reflect it. Is that expected?
And…

What does the arrow (pointer thangy) do? I now know you touch the drop down park adds the second park. I don’t touch the pointer. Just curious when I would use it.

Thank you again for your help. Just this past weekend I was able to help several friends understand some functions in WRL, adding to their enjoyment.

@N0LAF Good Morning,

Yes that is the expected behavior.

The arrow (pointer thangy) currently doesn’t do anything. We have some changes we are working on that will make that button work as expected as well as allow users to enter the parks separated by a comma (ie US-1234, US-2442, US-4242) and it will add all three parks

Thanks for all the support!!
