Yesterday I was working on Buro cards.
I use the 'Previous QSOs' page to lookup, confirm and make labels for
the incoming cards.
The problem I have is the 'Date & Time' column is not sorted by Date &
Time.
There are some of the contest stations that I have worked and have over
100 qso's with and they seem to QSL every contact. So finding the exact
qso is a sequence search for me through all the qso's. My log go's back
to 1989.
I wonder what the 'order by' for the query that retrieves the list of
previous QSO's?
The 2nd problem I had was with SWL cards. The Commands within the
Previous QSOs page has a SWL Reply.
This is really nice to have but when I entered several OK SWL station,
OK1-3453, the label generated cut off the '-' and the rest of the
callsign. So I had to go into the labels and manual add the rest of the
callsign.
So either have a data check when I enter the SWL callsign telling me I
can not have the '-' or fix the insert no to remove the '-' and the rest
of the callsign.
These are both little things and should already be on list. Just would
make life easier.
