During my Pota activation today I chased some Sota summits. I want to use FLE to upload my chasing. Unfortunately that doesn’t work.
Does a chaser successfully use FLE for the upload and if so, how?

I use FLE mostly for activating but occasionally for chasing. I export to ADIF first.
Yes Sir! I delete all of the non Sota qsos and upload an ADIF… It works!
Tnx 73 Chris
I think FLE direct upload is for activations only. The SOTA DB can read FLE files directly. For chasing I would use the FLE program to read the file and export to ADIF. Then you may need to edit the file to make it chaser not activator. But I don’t have much experience with chaser files.
Without testing, I would say you would have to not set mysota and use the s2s features to log chases but the fle format is definitely not geared towards mixing chaser and activator formats. It’s a symptom of the file format, which is more of a state machine than a line by line log such as ADIF or CSV
