SOTA - Logging Summit to Summit QSO

App Help & How-To
1

Hi Folks
In western europe SOTA is much more popular than POTA. In SOTA (Summits on the air) we love summits-to-summits-qso (as POTA activators love park-to-park-qso).
My question:
How can I log in WRL the SOTA number of the ham, I am talking to?
For POTA I see the field “Their Park Number”. Is there something simular for SOTA?

Hi Brad @K4AZE
Thanks for your reply and this short video.
On first view I thought, that there is no new information for me. I did yesterday exactly the same as you, I thought. But you have the summit-to-summit field and I don’t. But why? And then I found the reason:
I allways choosed logbook style “All fields”. And with “All Fields” you don’t see all fields, as the name says. The ‘summit-to-summit’ field is then missing.
So I think, this is a bug. Do you agree?

@HB9EVT Hey Pepe,

Ok, i see now. That actually might not be a bug and be designed like that on purpose since its a separate logging template but i’ll reach out to the team and have a discussion about it. Like I mentioned in the recording, we have SEVERAL new templates coming as well as a template builder but if its something that wasn’t done intentional I can see if we can get the “summit-to-summit” button added to the ‘all fields’ template. I’ll update this thread once we’ve had a chance to talk to the team.

Thanks & 73
