Prepping for CQ WPX SSB Contest and found issue

Bug Reports
1

I just joined the CQ WPX SSB contest and decided to check it out from WRL on my Android tablet using the app. What I noticed is it shows the field where I’ll enter the serial number they give me but it’s not showing the serial number I’m to give them. If I go to the same log on my PC using the web browser it properly shows both the give and get serial number fields. I’ve attached a screenshot from my PC using the web interface and from my Samsung tablet using the app. Am I doing something wrong or is this a bug? Thanks! KK7PZE

@KK7PZE no you’re not doing anything wrong. The mobile app isn’t really meant or setup currently for contest logging. Despite having the contest exchange fields. I would HIGHLY suggest just using the web app.

There is a line in the log below the entry fields that says “My Exchange” next to it is a little pencil like icon, click that and enter your exchange. I believe it auto increments serials ( I hope so anyway). It will autopopulate that field in the log and the cabrillo export without having to key it in every QSO

EDIT: Nothing to enter for CQ WPX - oops

@KC3ZXR You dont need to enter anything in the ‘my exchange’ for the CQ WPX contest as your exchange is the ‘Serial # Sent’ field. So when you export your cabrillo it will have the correct data already there.
