To use the Reference feature, press
Alt-P
. On the next
screen, press
M
to Manage Refs.
The next screen displayed will show references 1-4. Page Up
and Down, or Arrow Up and Down to navigate to references 5-
12. Tab can also be used to move to the next field.
Storing and Selecting a Reference
Enter up to 16 characters per line (1 line = 1 Reference). Since
most references are less than 16 characters,
there’s usually
room to enter an optional short note for each reference. Use a
colon
(“:”) to separate the reference from your note. This can
be used as a handy reminder when looking at a list of
references and trying to recall what they are.
Example for Pikes Peak: W0/FR-004:Pikes
Where W0/FR-004 is the official SOTA reference and will be
stored in the log, and Pikes (after the colon) is just a reminder
for you and will not be stored in the log.
To select which reference is active, Arrow or Page Up/Down to
the reference desired and press
ALT-S
. An a
sterisk (“*”) will
be displayed on the line of the active reference.
In the following screenshot example:
-
2 SOTA Summit Refs are entered, both with a short
note
-
Number 02, Pikes Peak, is selected as the active
reference. Note the asterisk indicating so.
