Feature Request: Saving the other operator's first name in PoLo

Hello, sometimes you don’t have internet access and therefore no access to the first name of the other operator you’re starting a QSO with. Could the developer of PoLo configure it so that the name is automatically saved in PoLo after the QSO is saved? VKportaLog has done this for a long time, but I find PoLo’s handling more convenient. 73

Hans,

You can use your VK-port-a-log names file in PoLo as a Callsign Notes file

My old VK-port-a-log names file now has 77+k names in it and it works perfectly in PoLo.

I add new or corrected names to the Note field during the contact and update my names file after the activation.

Alan, i found in Android the names.csv file in VKportalog. How can i paste it into PoLo? Didnt found PoLo-Folder in my TAB60 Tablet. Sorry for the questions, but I don’t have much experience working with Android files.

The steps to add a file are shown in 1 through 6 here:

And also in the video at the bottom of the page

There is a regular maintained names.csv / names.txt available here:

OM Stephan is updating the file and is happy to receive new entries via e-mail …

It worked! The new data was only applied after I closed and restarted Ham2K. Thank you so much for your help!
