Time Stamp on Logbook Entries

Really want to see timestamps on the logbook entries without having to go to the QSO view.

@WB0ICT Hey Tess, are you meaning inside of your logbook in the ā€˜Logs’ tab (see below)? We’re limited on space there but we might be able to remove the ā€˜Tags’ section and add in the timestamp of the QSO there (if this is the area you are referring to). I’ll reach out to the team and get their thoughts as well.

Thanks & 73

Hi Brad @K4AZE

I love the tags column. Please don’t remove. But I don’t need the state column. :wink:

The preferences, which column should be shown in this limited space, are very individual. Please consider the possibility that each user can configure which columns are visible. #FeatureRequest

Agree. I like the Tags column. @K4AZE would a hover kind of thing be doable? Maybe when you hover over the user you can see the timestamp? User configurable columns would be great.

@WB0ICT Hey Tess,

Yea we are planning on user configurable fields in the future, but maybe like you said in the interim we could do a hover over affect and provide the data that way, at least for now. I’ll talk to the team about it.

Thanks & 73

I’d love to have time in there also. Maybe drop ā€œDistanceā€ for it, and make ā€œTimeā€ Column 1? That’s where I look for it every time before I remember it’s not there.

The only other thing that kills me is the frequency field not clearing, and then you put in a new callsign, and it doesn’t automatically grab that one’s frequency because the old one wasn’t cleared. Thinking that automatically clearing the frequency on Log Contact should be the default, rather than what I’m guessing is contest mode ā€œkeep the frequency in the boxā€ ?

I’m with Doug on this one, I keep getting fooled into forgetting to change the frequency, fortunately I realize it quickly. The idea of having a contest button or fixed frequency button to save a frequency is a good idea.

I’m with you, too. A little fixed frequency button close to the frequency field would be a good solution.

@KC1UUH @F4MPL @HB9EVT The fixed frequency has been requested by several other users and is why it is like that. At some point we will implement options in your logbook settings to have this as a toggle to have the freq persist or not.

I completely understand. I was in pota this afternoon, and this feature is really handy when you’re on duty. The idea of a button to block the frequency is a good one. If it could be implemented, everyone would be happy.

Have a nice day Brad, 73.

What do you all use the TAG column for? Thanks 73

It shows your park-to-park contacts for a POTA activation with a double tree icon.

Ive stated the same thing many times. I could care less about the always accurate signal reports that I never take any time to update , even if they are a 5/5 I don’t take the time do put 5/5 in a pile up, but I need the time.

Thanks Earnest - we will get this added! We have a backlog right now because of the database upgrade but we’re working as hard as I can and we are SO CLOSE!!

I’m surprised it doesn’t show a single park / tree icon when I’m hunting–I’m dying to see park #s in the log sidebar! @N0WRL could we get that on the post DB push list? :smiley:

100% @W9TEF you’ve got it!! I think we can make this all one ā€œmini featureā€ just expanding the options for the columns on the log list :slight_smile: Thanks so much!!

I would love to be able to have the ability to configure the columns too. I do not understand why on the phone app I am able to see the time stamp column when the QSO was entered but I am NOT able to see it on the web. When I edit my POTA videos I use the time stamp on the phone app and today I decided to to use the web and I noticed the timestamp column is not there. Am I missing something or it is not available on the web and only on the app? Thanks. :slight_smile:

I hope this helps, somewhat :wink:
