It then checks all countries in list, and shows records in a grid, but only ones that originate from selected countries.

List of countries does not have all countries, just those that are covered by SOTA.

OK now I can understand what you are reporting

This is how it should work.......

If you select "Chaser" then only the valid SOTA countries should be available in the country list

When you select "S2S" only the valid SOTA countries should be available in the country list

When you select "Activator" all DXCC countries should be available in the country list - If this is not happening it is still only listing SOTA countries.

I will speak to Lele and see itf its possible to get this fixed for the next release.

Thank you for your patience in discovering this issue

I think it is more logical that if no countries are selected that means country filter will not be applied at all but all countries will be included.

As it is now, user has an option not to select any country (and it is default), but that setting has no sense because it means he will have no records selected at all.

If nothing else, default should be all countries selected.

In QSO Manager > QSO Archive, make the "My Sota Ref" field visible and check that all of your SOTA QSOs show correct content in this field.

Once I was using a wrong profile when entering SOTA QSOs. This is easily corrected using the excellent "Field Update" feature.

Sorry, maybe i'm missing something.
When you set ACTIVATOR the software will show the LIST OF YOUR ACTIVATED SUMMITS.
By clicking the EXPORT button on the activation you will see all contacts that have MySotaRef set as the current sota reference.

I can see here all callsigns i have set, also a TA4something (turkey is not part of SOTA associations). I have successfully exported them.

If you select ACTIVATOR, the program will show the list of countries that you can MAY HAVE ACTIVATED, the list is NOT the list of countries you have CONTACTED, but the list of countries that have summits that can BE ACTIVATED BY YOU. Obviously you can activate only summits / countries that are listed in SOTA program. If you have activated more than one country, the country list allow you to filter the countries you want to see as activator (it's probably not useful because you probably activate summits on your country only, but...)

I'm still missing something?

Did Pedja update the SOTA files?

Could be a similar problem to the one he had with the SCL file - Probably not using the auto update facility and therefore the SOTA association file is not current or present?

I have a feeling that Pedja has not selected 'Activator' in the SOTA status screen.
