The dialog walked a hand-written GROUPS array. "The contact" was added to the
fields and not to it, so mode, submode and RST existed, passed every check I had
written, and could not be picked — the same shape of fault as the missing column
mapping, one layer further out. Two lists that must agree, with nothing making
them agree.
GROUPS is derived from the fields now, in declaration order, so adding a group
is adding a field. A group with no translation falls back to its own name rather
than rendering an empty heading: a missing label should look untidy, not
invisible.
Also stacks the DX sunrise/sunset in the band-slot header. Side by side it cost
about 150 px of a row that also carries the callsign, the badges and the band
grid, and it was what pushed that row onto a second line. Two short times one
above the other cost a fraction of it and no extra height — the row is already
taller than one line of text. The "UTC" label goes to the tooltip: the times are
monospaced and always UTC everywhere in OpsLog, so it was spending width to
repeat a convention the operator already lives by.
They were excluded as "per-QSO", alongside callsign and date. That rule confused
two different things: bulk edit is not for describing QSOs, it is for REPAIRING
a batch of them — an import that mapped every contact to SSB, an ADIF that
carried no MODE at all. Refusing because a hundred rows should not normally
share a value left the operator editing a hundred rows by hand.
Setting the mode CLEARS the submode. A submode belongs to the mode it was
recorded under; left behind it contradicts the new one, and "FT8 with a submode
of USB" is not a thing — worse, the submode is what most ADIF readers believe.
Band is still refused on its own, and that half of the rule stands. It travels
with the frequency through BulkSetFrequency, which writes the pair: a band
contradicting its own frequency is invalid ADIF, and every export would carry
the contradiction out into the world. Callsign and date stay out too — they
identify the contact rather than describe it.
An import that drops the locator leaves it missing on a whole batch, and fixing
that one QSO at a time is exactly what bulk edit exists to avoid.
Added on all three sides in lockstep — the dialog field, the field-to-column map,
and the repository whitelist — because they are separate lists and offering a
field the repository refuses fails only at Apply, after the operator has selected
the QSOs. The existing contract test covers it.
The callsign and RST stay excluded, as before: bulk-setting those corrupts a log.
The locator does not carry that risk — it identifies a place, not a station, and
a wrong value is simply overwritten again.
"Upload" was wrong for half of them: a paper QSL is not uploaded. Every entry
now says whether it sets a STATUS or a DATE, and in which direction — "QRZ.com
sent status", "LoTW received date" — which is also how the ADIF fields read.
Added: the QRZ.com received status (the column existed, it was simply never
offered) and the ten confirmation DATES — QSL / LoTW / eQSL / QRZ.com in both
directions, Club Log and HRDLog outbound only, those two having no return
channel. Dates use the same picker as the QSL Info tab, with a Today (UTC)
button; clearing the field writes an empty value, which is how a wrong date is
removed from a batch.
Fields are grouped by CHANNEL now, each status followed by its date, in the same
order as the QSL Info tab — a longer list, but nothing to hunt for.
The repository whitelist is extended to match: without it the new columns would
have been refused at write time. The old ids (qrz_upload, clublog_upload,
hrdlog_upload) still resolve, in case anything still holds one.
- Station Control: the amplifier panel is now the exact same card as the FlexRadio panel (extracted shared AmpCard: OPERATE/STANDBY, ON/OFF, power level, output-power bar, live FWD/ID/temp meters). Every configured amp gets its own card — no dropdown.
- Help → "Send log to F4BPO" (only when SMTP is configured): e-mails opslog.log + previous session + crash log to the developer. New email.SendFiles for multi-attachment.
- Bulk edit: new "Frequency (MHz)" field sets freq_hz AND recomputes band; out-of-band values rejected. Fixes a run logged on a stale/default freq after CAT dropped.
- Cluster: Time column sorted lexically on the HHMMZ string, so spots after 0000Z sorted below 2359Z and looked frozen at the UTC rollover. Now sorts by real arrival time.
- Also folds in the DVK auto-CQ/2-column layout and Station Control dashboard batch (changelog 0.20.10, EN+FR).
