QRZ lookups only grabbing first name, full name is in the comments field


 

This seems to be an issue since updating to 7.0.11.
?
When doing lookups the calls first name is the only item filled in the name field, although the full name is listed in the comments field.
?
How do I fix this?

I take the 'Name' field to be the name/nickname the other operator gave. In my not so many foreign contacts, operators have often used a nickname instead of their formal first name. The name often given by US operators is not what you'll see in the QRZ lookup. "Matt" instead of "Mathew," for example.

This makes the contact more personal, if you will. I like the behavior, which I have seen since before the most recent release.

Has it ever looked up and placed a full first and last name in the NAME field?

I just scrolled back onto my master log – thousands of contacts going back to 2000.? I have some entries with two words like CLUB CALL and CLUB STATION.? I have a few with initials like C.J. or M. Keith.? I have no entries with a first and last name in the NAME field, and when I try to enter a first and last name manually when I hit the SPACE bar the focus jumps to the next entry field.

Best I can tell, this has never been a think with my logging.? I will admit there may be a setting that I have never used to do that.

Hi Dave,

Thanks for your e-mail.? AC Log has always functioned this way, as intended.? Callbook lookup functionality hasn't changed from previous versions.

I'm sorry that we didn't have the answer that you were hoping for.

Enjoy!

OK, maybe I was confusing it with Club calls.
