Awards

OpsLog has a flexible awards engine. Award definitions and reference lists are shared globally across profiles.

Built-in awards

DXCC, WAS / WAZ / WAC, WPX, IOTA / POTA / SOTA / WWFF, DDFM (French departments), and more — tracked worked / confirmed / validated by band and mode.

How matching works

An award scans a QSO field for a reference, by one of:

code — the field value is the reference (e.g. state = NY).
description — the reference's name appears in the field (substring, case- insensitive but space-sensitive — "Hongkong" won't match "Hong Kong").
pattern — a per-reference regex is tested against the field.

Plus OR rules (also match if any of these hit), a leading/trailing strip, a prefix added to found references, and a dynamic mode (any value counts, like POTA).

Tip — Hong Kong / Macau style mismatches: if the data says "Hong Kong" but the reference description is "Hongkong", either fix the description to match, or set that OR-search's Match by to pattern so the reference's own regex (e.g. \bHong Kong\b) is used. In description mode the per-reference pattern is ignored.

Live detection & manual refs

References are detected live as you enter a callsign.
You can manually assign a reference to a QSO (stored in an ADIF extra so it survives export/import — see Import and Export ADIF).

Reference lists & display

Import reference lists for totals and names.
Per award, choose what the Recent-QSOs column shows: reference, name, or both. Award columns are opt-in per the Columns picker (Recent QSOs and Filters).

Rescan

Rescan re-pulls the logbook and recomputes — it picks up fresh LoTW / QRZ / eQSL confirmations (see QSL Management).
