This may already be on the list, but it would really streamline my experience if the spot that I have in the log form was highlighted a different color while it was in the log form. For instance when hunting, I like to sort by frequency and work my way down the list, but I often lose my place with the list refreshing and resetting to the top. My hacky workaround, right now, is to pause the auto-refresh and double-click right on top of the frequency text–doing this causes my system to select a bit of the text and that reminds me where I left off.

Feature-wise it would be cool if it auto-identified a spot through Call and Freq and highlighted it on the list, but even if it only worked when I specifically sent the spot to the log, and then the highlights would ideally fall off if the contact is logged or the Call/Freq fields are changed. (EDIT: Should only un-highlight if the fields are changed, not when contact is logged to avoid losing our place)

Sounds good Brad. It also occurs to me that we would NOT want it to un-highlight right when the contact is logged, because if it did we’d still lose our spot. Maybe a highlight that means “this was the last spot sent to the log” whether it’s still filled in or not.
