Field to Indicate Calling vs. Answering Station

I asked this during today’s live YouTube stream with Andy and Catalina while they were demonstrating EchoLink, logging contacts. I think my question may have been filtered from the live chat by YouTube’s algorythm or something… so I wanted to ask it here instead. I looked at the live stream from my work account and didn’t see my comment appear.

Question: When logging a contact, is there currently a field or tag that lets me indicate whether I was the calling station (the station that initiated the transmit) or the answering station (the station that replied)? I realize this isn’t required information, but I thought it might be an interesting detail to record if there is a way to do it.

Thanks,

@K1DAW Hey Daniel,

Not by default no, there are other logbooks templates you could use (ie All Fields) and use the comment or notes fields to add this information. As a member you can create your own custom logbook templates (and add a custom field specifically for this information) and then apply that template to an existing logbook or a new logbook though.
