Self-spotting

Spotting yourself for activities that support it, like POTA, WWFF, and GMA.

When an operation begins PoLo will enable you to send an activation spot. Reveal the Spotting button using the left pointing arrow in the details area; pressing the button will give you a chance to add a comment to the spot. The spot button will display icons for each of the activities included in the operation that provide self-spotting services.

Re-spotting is done in the same way, with QSY or QRT entered into the Comments window depending on the operators actions.

You can also self-spot by using the SPOTME or just SPME commands in the callsign entry field. You can add a short comment after a /, such as SPME/QRV.

PoLo currently supports receiving spots for POTA, SOTA and WWFF, clicking any spot within the list on the spots tab will put all of that contact’s details into a new slot on the QSO tab enabling quick and easy contact to be made.
