Hi Jim, Nate and Zoli, we should keep in mind to integrate it in the flow of the qso, especially in contests. What I mean is running in CQ mode I need the RST of the other station *before* answering his call and will get his RST in his reply. Running in S&P I would first get my RST from him and

Hi Nate, Everything is possible. :-) An option I see could be making the exchange box wider to span the RST fields and let the user input the values. Optionally pre-fill with 599/59. Then upon storing the qso we would parse the first 2 words and store them as RSTs. A bit tedious for the user to

Real RST possible?

2020-01-26 Thread jim smith
First, I know there is the CHANGE_RST directive, but for QRP contests (at least in the states), many times ops send an actual RST -- 33N, 439, etc. Is there any way to incorporate this in both the received stations data (I imagine it would be in the exchange field, like a serial number) and for t
