Outd Log by HB9GVC

Pierre

Thanks I will have to give VK port-a-log a go. One feature I love is being able to read spots within the app, so you don’t have to leave the app. Outdlog also lets me know, if I have already worked someone, which is useful (I am a S2S Junkie) LOL

Cheers

VK Port-a-log does the same. Swipe left to bring up the latest spots. Click one and it will populate the details from the spot.
Work the S2S, update RST and save.
I think there is also a colour code if you worked the station already :thinking:

No answer so far :frowning:
In the past it taken a few hours max to get an answer from Thomas.
May be colleagues from Switzerland may have any tips …

Hi Jarek

I checked with my installed Outdlog app. Spots are not working with me.

Strange things have happened today. The Spots have started working (this is for the first time in over a month). However they are slow. Here are three screen grabs all taken at the same time. You can see Outd Log is not showing everything that the others are. This is on Android. With multiple refreshes on the Outd Log screen.

I restarted my phone (IOS) and reauthenticated login.
After that last sport is from 9:25 UTC, now is 9:48 UTC and on sotawatch are 19 newer spots more.

I tested now several times. For me it seems that it is working again.
Thanks to @SP9MA Jarek and others for bringing this issue up and solved it. Much appreciated.

So can someone throw some light on this? Obviously the app hasn’t been updated, so what has changed to make it work again…? What ever or who ever THANK YOU!

For me Outd Log has stopped updating again! It is such a good app but can not be relied on.

Maybe time to give VK port-a-Log a go

Yes. Same here. I recognized it today on the summit.
I really like the app. So, hopefully it gets repaired soon

Yep seen the same and have moved over to vk-porta log, I can see no benefits to outdlog over portalog now I’ve updated the names.csv file. It alerts you to the spots and makes s2s contacts a breeze. Just wish there was a POTA side to log using it as well and I would be very happy.

Apart from this problem. Has anyone of you tried an external keyboard ???. Can you tell me, if with the Return/Enter key on the external keyboard, you jump from field to field.
I can’t get it!!
