Hi
So, when i started doing SOTA, i did something on v1 that i was able to associate my references or those hunted by me on the log itself. Now, i still am on v2.
POTA tho, i see it on Award Manager but i can't associate it on any log, it doesn't show up on the list box, just SOTA and a couple more.
What am i doing wrong or what am i missing?
Thanks in advance.

Any actually.
See attached file.
But in award manager, i see all awards, including POTA. I just can't use it on the list box to log contacts.

Re: POTA / SOTA awards
OK seems to be a glitch in the awards manager for POTA with certain countries being excluded, I will ask Claus to look at thiscs7agh wrote: ↑17 Jun 2021, 13:04 Any actually.

Re: POTA / SOTA awards
Thank you so much.
We're finally starting it here, i'm the first or second activator in most of the parks around me.
I have some people waiting for my feedback to solve their problem too

Re: POTA / SOTA awards
I will look at this. I don’t track POTA so I have to do some tests first.
If I have any questions I will come back to you.

Re: POTA / SOTA awards
Hi Paulo,
I did some quick tests, first with a G-callsign, then with a CT-callsign. Everything worked fine with the G-callsign, but no entry with the CT-callsign.
Next I verified the POTA award in the Award Manager.
First, Portugal is not enabled in the DXCC list, which means that POTA will never be shown under Awards (F3) for any Portuguese callsign:
Second, I could not find any Portuguese (CT) entry in my POTA list under references:
But even if there are entries, you also have to verifiy, that Portugal is checked under Award Manager -> Award info -> DXCC list.
I am not sure if I have the latest POTA list, but please verify in your environemnt.

Re: POTA / SOTA awards
That's weird.
I'm using 2.14.1.0 portable by the way.
I go to award manager, select POTA, go to DXCC list and select Portugal manually or even EU list to select all Europe, i press the floppy to "save award".
If i edit POTA again, Portugal isn't selected or any of the rest of EU countries selected in the step above.
Naturally, when i go to log, POTA isn't displayed (like i showed yesterday).
Do i have a read/write issue on the Award Manager XML or something?
It seems the issue is him not keeping my changes.

Re: POTA / SOTA awards
I don't have references too, i was first worried about seeing POTA itself, not references, that was the next step.
I wonder then, maybe he's not activating it on Award Manager because he's smart enough to see he doesn't have CT- in reference list?
I'm gonna try to import the POTA ALL csv they provide and test again
