Importing Park #'s from POTACAT

Feature Requests

When I log using POTACAT, the park # does not populate the park # field in WRL. POTACAT puts it in the comment field so I do see it in WRL but here’s what the developer says about getting it into the park # field in WRL:

“WRL’s Cat Control app only reads the basic N1MM fields and throws away the park fields POTACAT already sends (SIG_INFO/POTA_REF are in every packet — WRL just doesn’t import them, which is also why you never saw the park anywhere but the comment before 1.9.4). Your POTACAT log still has the park in the proper ADIF fields, so exports to POTA are unaffected. Next release, the park tag will ride in the WRL comment even with the toggle off, so it can’t vanish from WRL entirely. Getting it into a real park field in WRL needs a change on their end, I believe. Maybe worth an ask in their community since we already send pota_ref in the packet.”

Is it possible to get this implemented?

@N3VD we will add this as a feature request. We just need to add the mapping - should be able to get this done after WRTC ends!

Seconding this request, please. I’m sure it’s more complex than I think, but can’t WRL’s listener retain any data it is sent, by default, as long as the fields match?
