My references

Hello,
I don't understand what is happening, I fill in the "My References" part in the settings and when I look at my callsign in the Awards field (F3) nothing is displayed :
- 2022-05-04_09h25_17.jpg (43.21 KiB) Viewed 1459 times
- 2022-05-04_09h25_03.jpg (62.02 KiB) Viewed 1459 times
I should point out that it was working fine before.
I'm on version 2.21.1.0
An idea ?
Thanks

I just tested and it works as designed
You add a reference e.g. when on a summit or island and save it
All QSO's that you have while that reference is present in the config will have it recorded in the QSO under the My Reference field.
Usefull for activators where a summit to summit contact scores more points

After having entered your references in the configuration, you must add new QSOs to the database. These QSOs will then have your references attached. I'm using this feature since many years when activating SOTA summits. Terry's answer is 100% correct.

That could not worked before .... If you type in your call to the callsign field Log4OM collects the data
from qrz.com or whatever you are using for the lookups.But on these databases are no informations about
your references. Log4OM did what it made for, if you have logged a contact your references will be stored
in the "My References" ADIF row and not in others.

Hello Jurgen
Thank you; yet it seemed to me that I saw this information if I typed in my own callsign.
But hey it doesn't matter I thought I was reporting a pb...
