Special Callsign versus Leaderboard Entry Font Color


 

Many Clubs provide for awards for working members on various bands throughout a single year.? ?FOC, for example, has an award for working each member once per year on each band.? ??
?
The Leaderboard function provides a perfect mechanism for tracking progress on working club members on each band by identifying a spot with a specific color when it is unworked on a particular band for the defined time period (set for the current year).? ?
?
However, if you have worked that member during the year on that particular band, the Font Color reverts to the Unneeded DX font color.? ? Technically, that's correct.? But that results in the spot for the Club member disappears into the same font color as the rest of the spots, making it more difficult to identify club members (which was the goal of putting their callsign into Special Call signs in the first place).? ?
?
It would be nice if any call listed in Special Callsigns retained a different color or if Leaderboard Worked had a different color than DX Unneeded.

+ DXLab's automation for identifying active club members is described here:



+ For the reason you describe above, use of the Leaderboard tag for this purpose is not recommended unless the competition is more important to you than identifying active club members after you've already worked them. Implementing more complex automation to support one specific club is not justifiable.
