Alert Management: Alert on Award Table

Posted: 01 Jul 2025, 14:38

Use Case: Trying to set up alerts for the 13 Colonies Event. The problem is I cannot filter By Stats as my log contains past years entries. :(

I was thinking I could filter based on "Alert on Award Table" as I have setup the 13 Colonies Event as an Award..and the award tracking works great. The problem is I don't know how to have that Award show up in the list of Alert on Award in the Awards Tab of Alert Management. I don't see any way to affect that list and don't know how it is generated.

The other solution would be to include a date range filter in the By Stats tab. That seems to be a more involved solution however.

Any help / direction is appreciated. Thanks

MJ,

I use and have used for many years ... the Alert Management routine found at: Settings / Alert Configuration

I create an Alert Rule for 13 Colonies, Route 66, Lewis & Clark, Bigfoot, etc., etc..

I then add the related callsigns for the event, select "cluster" and the Alert Source (or you could choose 'any'.

Then I tap the save diskette symbol to save the newly created Alert. I then slide the toggle to either enable or disable the Alert when I want to use it.

It helped me very much with the kickoff of 13 Colonies this AM as I was able to log a Q with 12 of 16 stations this AM before I headed off for my cancer infusion treatment at noon today. BTW - I am a CW only station here.

There are some tweaks I hope Lele can add to some of the edit features of an established Alert rule, but that will be another day I'm sure.
