Add LOTW confirmed icon in QSO manager

In the QSO Manager, it looks like there’s currently no clear way to tell whether a contact has been confirmed through LoTW. We can see confirmation indicators for other sources (like a star for QRZ and a check for WRL), but personally I value LoTW confirmations the most. It would be great if there were an LoTW-confirmed icon shown in the QSO Manager. Ideally, we could have multiple confirmation indicators/columns (customizable if possible) so it’s easy to see which method(s) a QSO is confirmed by, or alternatively a setting to rank confirmation priority, so the “confirmed” icon reflects the preferred source (e.g., show the LoTW icon instead of the QRZ icon if LoTW is confirmed, or switch that behavior if someone wants QRZ to take priority).

@KN4QHU We will be updating this (and inside your logbook) to show all confirmation sources for a contact. So for example if a contact is confirmed on all 3 (WRL, QRZ and LOTW) it will show all three icons, or if its only confirmed on WRL and QRZ it will show both icons. However with that said currently inside the QSO manager if you have the ‘Confirmed’ column enabled via the ‘Columns’ button it will show where the contact is confirmed. The hierarchy is WRL, QRZ and then LOTW, so currently if a contact is confirmed on WRL and LOTW it will only show the green check for WRL. If a contact is only confirmed on QRZ and LOTW it will only show the yellow star for QRZ. etc. It does currently show LOTW confirmed contacts (see below)

@KN4QHU

The light blue checkmark indicates a LoTW confirmation.

@K4AZE Ah I see, that makes sense now. Is there a way when clicking to view the QSO that it could show the various confirmation method status as well, so we can check whether a QSO was confirmed across QRZ, WRL, LOTW, and possibly eQSL if that is added in the future?

@KN4QHU not currently. we will be adding all the icons that a qso is confirmed on in the ‘Conf/Confirmed’ column inside the logbook and the qso manager so users can see what source a contact is confirmed on. ie: if a contact is confirmed on WRL and QRZ it will show the green check and the gold star, etc. This is coming soon. Currently if you click the ‘eye’ icon it will show ‘confirmation details’ underneath the map but it will only show the 1 confirmation, instead of all the sources its confirmed by
